Robust exponential stability of uncertain discrete time impulsive switching systems with state delay

A new class of hybrid impulsive and switching models are introduced and their robust exponential stability and control synthesis are addressed. The proposed switched system is composed of stable subsystems and unstable subsystems, which not only involves state delay and norm-bounded time-varying parameter uncertainties, but also contains the impulsive switching effects between the subsystems. Based on the extension of the system dimension and the concept of average dwell time, a kind of practically useful switching rule is presented which guarantees the desired robust exponential stability. A switched state feedback controller is also given.     

Exponential stability of nonlinear impulsive switched systems with stable and unstable subsystems

Exponential stability and robust exponential stability relating to switched systems consisting of stable and unstable nonlinear subsystems are considered in this study. At each switching time instant, the impulsive increments which are nonlinear functions of the states are extended from switched linear systems to switched nonlinear systems. Using the average dwell time method and piecewise Lyapunov function approach, when the total active time of unstable subsystems compared to the total active time of stable subsystems is less than a certain proportion, the exponential stability of the switched system is guaranteed. The switching law is designed which includes the average dwell time of the switched system. Switched systems with uncertainties are also studied. Sufficient conditions of the exponential stability and robust exponential stability are provided for switched nonlinear systems. Finally, simulations show the effectiveness of the result.     

Exponential stability of switched systems with imp ulsive effect

The exponential stability of a class of switched systems containing stable and unstable subsystems with impulsive effect is analyzed by using the matrix measure concept and the average dwell- time approach. It is shown that if appropriately a large amount of the average dwell- time and the ratio of the total activation time of the subsystems with negative matrix measure to the total activation time of the subsystems with nonnegative matrix measure is chosen , the exponential stability of a desired degree is guaranteed. Using the proposed switching scheme ,we studied the robust exponential stability for a class of switched systems with impulsive effect and structure perturbations. Simulations validate the main results.

Stability analysis and control synthesis of switched impulsive systems

In this paper, we investigate the stability analysis problem of switched impulsive nonlinear systems and several stabilization problems of switched discrete‐time linear systems are studied. First, sufficient conditions ensuring globally uniformly asymptotically stability of switched nonlinear impulsive system under arbitrary and DDT (dynamical dwell time which defines the length of the time interval between two successive switchings) switching are derived, respectively. In the DDT switching case, we first consider the switched system composed by stable subsystems, then we extend the results to the case where not all subsystems are stable. The stabilizations of switched discrete‐time linear system under arbitrary switching, DDT switching and asynchronous switching are investigated respectively. Based on the stability analysis results, the control synthesis consists of controller design for each subsystem and state impulsive jumping generators design at switching instant. With the aid of the state impulsive jumping generators at switching instant, the ‘energy’ produced by switching can be minimized, which leads to less conservative results. Several numerical examples are given to illustrate the proposed results within this paper. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Robust stability analysis of uncertain switched linear systems with unstable subsystems

The problem of robust stability for switched linear systems with all the subsystems being unstable is investigated. Unlike the most existing results in which each switching mode in the system is asymptotically stable, the subsystems may be unstable in this paper. A necessary condition of stability for switched linear systems is first obtained with certain hypothesis. Then, under two assumptions, sufficient conditions of exponential stability for both deterministic and uncertain switched linear systems are presented by using the invariant subspace theory and average dwell time method. Moreover, we further develop multiple Lyapunov functions and propose a method for constructing multiple Lyapunov functions for the considered switched linear systems with certain switching law. Several examples are included to show the effectiveness of the theoretical findings.     

Exponential stability of switched positive systems with all modes being unstable

This article studies the exponential stability of continuous‐time switched positive systems consisting of unstable subsystems. Different from the existing results, both stabilizing and destabilizing switching behaviors act in the switching sequences. By employing multiple composite copositive Lyapunov functions, sufficient condition is derived to ensure the exponential stability of the system, which evaluates the ratio of stabilizing switching behaviors to compensate the state divergence caused by either unstable subsystems or destabilizing switching behaviors. Simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the result.     

离散时间扰动脉冲切换系统鲁棒指数稳定性

The robust exponential stability of a class of discrete time impulsive switched systems with structure perturbations is studied. Based on the average dwell time concept and by dividing the total activation time into the time with stable subsystems and the time with unstable subsystems, it is shown that if the average dwell time and the activation time ratio are properly large, the given switched system is robustly exponentially stable with a desired stability degree. Compared with the traditional Lyapunov methods, our layout is more clear and easy to carry out. Simulation results validate the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

On hybrid impulsive and switching systems and application to nonlinear control

In this note, a new class of hybrid impulsive and switching models is introduced and their asymptotic stability properties are investigated. Using switched Lyapunov functions, some new general criteria for exponential stability and asymptotic stability with arbitrary and conditioned impulsive switching are established. In addition, a new hybrid impulsive and switching control strategy for nonlinear systems is developed. A typical example, the unified chaotic system, is given to illustrate the theoretical results.
