This paper deals with the identification problem of Max-plus linear Discrete Event Systems with single input and single output. The objective is to estimate the temporal parameters of the system by using the observation of input and output transition firing times assuming that some structural parameters are known. With those assumptions, the identification method is developed by using an upper bound for cycle duration. The paper presents a sufficient excitation condition, concerning the input signal, for the convergence of the algorithm. Examples Illustrate the proposed method.
