In this paper, the problem of designing observer for a class of uncertain neutral systems. The uncertainties are parametric and norm-bounded. Both robust observation and robust H∞H∞ observation methods are developed by using linear state-delayed observers. In case of robust observation, sufficient conditions are established for asymptotic stability of the system, which is independent of time delay. The results are then extended to robust H∞H∞ observation which renders the augmented system asymptotically stable independent of delay with a guaranteed performance measure. Furthermore, a memoryless state-estimate feedback is designed to stabilize the closed-loop neutral system. In all cases, the gain matrices are determined by linear matrix inequality approach. Two numerical examples are presented to illustrate the validity of the theoretical results.
