1828 V. ANDRIEU, L. PRALY, AND A. ASTOLFIConsequently the assumptions <strong>of</strong> Theorem 3.1 are sat<strong>is</strong>fied for i + 1 = n. We canapply it recursively up to i = 1, obtaining the vector field K 1 .As a result <strong>of</strong> <strong>th<strong>is</strong></strong> procedure we obtain a homogeneous in the bi-limit observer,which globally asymptotically observes the state <strong>of</strong> the system (3.1), and also thestate for its homogeneous approximations around the origin and at infinity. In otherwords, the origin <strong>is</strong> a globally asymptotically stable equilibrium <strong>of</strong> the systems(3.12) Ė 1 = S n E 1 + K 1 (e 1 ) , Ė 1 = S n E 1 + K 1,0 (e 1 ) , Ė 1 = S n E 1 + K 1,∞ (e 1 ) .Remark 3.2. Note that when 0 ≤ d 0 ≤ d ∞ , we have 1 ≤ r0,i+d0r 0,ii =1,...,n and we can replace the function q i in (3.10) <strong>by</strong> the simpler function≤ r∞,i+d∞r ∞,iforr 0,i +d 0rq i (s) = s 0,ir ∞,i +d∞+ sr ∞,i,which has been used already in [1].Example 3.3. Consider a chain <strong>of</strong> integrators <strong>of</strong> dimension two, with the followingweights and degrees:()(r 0 , d 0 ) = (2 − q, 1), q− 1 , (r ∞ , d ∞ ) =()(2 − p, 1), p− 1 .When q ≥ p (i.e., d 0 ≤ d ∞ ), <strong>by</strong> following the above recursive observer design weobtain two positive real numbers l 1 and l 2 such that the systemwith(3.13) q 2 (s) =˙ˆX 1 = ˆX 2 − q 1 (l 1 e 1 ) , ˙ˆX 2 = u − q 2 (l 2 q 1 (l 1 e 1 )) ,e 1 = ˆX 1 − y,{ 1q sq , |s| ≤ 1,1p sp + 1 q − 1 p , |s| ≥ 1, q 1 (s) ={(2 − q) s12−q , |s| ≤ 1,(2 − p)s 12−p + p − q, |s| ≥ 1,<strong>is</strong> a global observer for the system Ẋ 1 = X 2, Ẋ 2 = u, y = X 1. Furthermore, its homogeneousapproximations around the origin and at infinity are also global observersfor the same system.4. Recursive design <strong>of</strong> a homogeneous in the bi-limit state feedback.It <strong>is</strong> well known that the system (3.1) can be rendered homogeneous <strong>by</strong> using astabilizing homogeneous state feedback which can be designed <strong>by</strong> backstepping (see[21, 25, 19, 26, 33, 10], for instance). We show in <strong>th<strong>is</strong></strong> section that <strong>th<strong>is</strong></strong> property canbe extended to the case <strong>of</strong> homogeneity in the bi-limit. More prec<strong>is</strong>ely, we show thatthere ex<strong>is</strong>ts a homogeneous in the bi-limit function φ n such that the system (3.1) withu = φ n (X n ) <strong>is</strong> homogeneous in the bi-limit, with weights r 0 and r ∞ and degrees d 0and d ∞ . Furthermore, its origin and the origin <strong>of</strong> the approximating systems in the0-limit and in the ∞-limit are globally asymptotically stable equilibria.To design the state feedback we follow the approach <strong>of</strong> Praly and Mazenc [25]. To<strong>th<strong>is</strong></strong> end, consider the auxiliary system with state X i =(X 1,...,X i) in R i ,1≤ i
