✦ Synopsis

A solution to the problem of state estimation for systems with unknown parameters is to use some on-line adaptation of the observer parameters. On the basis of various existing results for such adaptive observer designs, a unifying "adaptive observer form" is proposed in this paper. This form indeed emphasizes properties allowing some asymptotic state estimation in spite of unknown parameters, as well as additional properties which further allow parameter estimation. As an example, it is shown how an adaptive observer can be designed for a class of state a ne systems.
