Minimax State Observation in Linear One Dimensional 2-Point Boundary Value Problems
In this paper we study observation problem for linear 2-point BVP Dx=Bf assuming that information about system input f and random noise ηin system state observation model y=Hx+η$ is incomplete (f and Mηη' are some arbitrary elements of given sets). A criterion of guaranteed (minimax) estimation error finiteness is proposed. Representations of minimax estimations are obtained in terms of 2-point BVP solutions. It is proved that in general case we can only estimate a projection of system state onto some linear manifold $F$. In particular, $F=L_2$ if $dim N(D H) = 0$. Also we propose a procedure which decides if given linear functional belongs to $F$.
