For nonlinear systems operating under uncertainty, this paper involves the principle of motion separation to design a state observer with nonlinear corrections in the form of sigma functions. For the systems representable in the regular form with respect to the external perturbations, the above approach yields the current estimates of the unmeasurable state variables and external perturbations without extending the dynamic order of the observer by a model that simulates the action of the external perturbations. The developed algorithms are applied in the control system of an asynchronous drive with an incomplete set of measuring devices.
