In this contribution the design of reduced order H filters of order n-k is investigated for nth order discrete time systems with m measurements of which k are undisturbed. Assuming a reduced order observer structure for the H filter, the filter gains achieving H optimal a priori estimates and a posteriori estimates are derived using the Bounded Real Lemma. A simple example demonstrates the proposed design procedure.
Keywords: H filtering, discrete time systems, singular filtering problem, Riccati equation approach.
