An Observable Canonical Form for a Rational System on a Variety

An observable canonical form is formulated for the set of rational systems on a variety each of which is a single-input-single-output, affine in the input, and a minimal realization of its response map. The equivalence relation for the canonical form is defined by the condition that two equivalent systems have the same response map. A proof is provided that the defined form is well-defined canonical form. Special cases are discussed.

Rational observers of rational systems

Rational observers are to be constructed for rational systems while polynomial observers are to be constructed for polynomial systems. An observer synthesis procedure is formulated. First an output-based rational realization is synthesized for the considered rational system. Then a perturbation technique creates an observer. Finite algebraic observability of the rational system impies the existence of a output-based rational realization. Several examples of rational observers are provided including a polynomial system of which the state-space dimension of the polynomial observer is strictly higher than that of the corresponding system.

Time Versus Energy in the Averaged Optimal Coplanar Kepler Transfer towards Circular Orbits

The aim of this note is to compare the averaged optimal coplanar transfer towards circular orbits when the costs are the transfer time transfer and the energy consumption. While the energy case leads to analyze a 2D Riemannian metric using the standard tools of Riemannian geometry (curvature computations, geodesic convexity), the time minimal case is associated to a Finsler metric which is not smooth. Nevertheless a qualitative analysis of the geodesic flow is given in this article to describe the optimal transfers. In particular we prove geodesic convexity of the elliptic domain.
