Abstract. This paper proposes constructive algorithms for ellipsoidal estimation of state vectors measured under bounded disturbances in families of linear and a rather wide class of nonlinear dynamic systems. The algorithms are based on the use of support functions and approximation of generally non-convex sets of estimates by ellipsoids. Keywords: dynamic system, nonlinearity, uncertainty, measurement noise, state vector, robust method of ellipsoidal estimation. INTRODUCTION Determining estimates for the state vector of nonlinear dynamic objects that is measured under disturbances is a necessary stage of implementation of algorithms used to control such objects. At present, because of a number of causes for the estimation of state vectors measured under bounded disturbances in linear dynamic systems, ellipsoidal estimates are most widespread owing to works of A. B. Kurzhanskii [1, 2], F. C. Schweppe [3], F. L. Chernous’ko [4, 5], and others. In these works, different criteria for choosing approximating ellipsoids are used among which are the minimum-volume ellipsoid, trace of its matrix, etc. A more complicated problem is the determination of estimates for the state vector of nonlinear dynamic systems that is measured under bounded disturbances. At present, a few articles consider the solution of this problem for some special classes of nonlinear functions, in particular, quadratic ones (see, for example, [6]). This work presents an essential generalization and a further development of the general scheme of determining ellipsoidal estimates for the state vector of nonlinear discrete systems, which is described in [7] and proposes a method for determining ellipsoidal and interval minimum-volume estimates for families of linear and a rather wide class of families of nonlinear discrete systems. 1. ESTIMATES FOR THE STATE VECTOR OF FAMILIES OF LINEAR SYSTEMS The following equation of a family of discrete controllable systems is given: X n + 1 = AX n + BU n , n = 0, 1, 2,K ,

Here, A i is a given convex set and B is a given m´ k matrix. Row vectors (2) imply the following estimate for the matrix A: A Î A = A1 ´ A 2 ´ K ´ A m .
