An optimal reduced-order observer-estimator (filter) is developed which can provide a full-dimensional vector of state estimates for systems where the dimension of the measurement vector is smaller than that of the state vector and none of the measurements are noise free. The reduced-order filter consists of two subfilters each of which provides a subset of the optimal estimate. A two-step L-K transformation is employed to minimize the estimate error variance of each subfilter. The optimal reduced-order filter developed is computationally efficient.
