The differentiation error of noisy signals using the Generalized Super-Twisting differentiator

A method to compute the differentiation error in presence of bounded measurement noise for the family of Generalized Super-Twisting differentiators is presented. The proposed method allows choosing the optimal gain of each differentiator in the family providing the smallest ultimate bound of the differentiation error. In particular, an heuristic formula for the optimal gain of the pure Super-Twisting differentiator is presented.
