Novel Observer-Based Suboptimal Digital Tracker for a Class of Time-Delay Singular Systems by Nien-Tsu Hu, Ter-Feng Wu, Sendren Sheng-Dun Xu, Hsu-Chih Huang

“…The linear quadratic performance index, specified in the continuous-time domain, can be discretized into an equivalent decoupled discrete-time performance index using the newly developed extended delay-free model. Additionally, although the extended delay-free model is large, its advantage is the elimination of all delay terms (which included a new extended state vector), simplifying the proposed approach. …”
