Performance control for interconnection of identical systems: Application to PLL network design

In this paper, the problem of the control law design for interconnected identical systems ensuring the global stability and the global performance properties is under consideration. Inspired by the decentralized control law design methodology using the dissipativity input–output approach, the problem is reduced to the problem of satisfying two conditions: (i) the condition on the interconnection and (ii) the condition on the local subsystem dynamics. Both problems are efficiently solved applying a (quasi‐) convex LMI optimization and standard H_∞ synthesis. The proposed design methodology is applied to the control law design of a synchronous PLL network. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Dissipative control for linear systems by static output feedback

In this article, the problem of static output-feedback dissipative control is investigated for linear continuous-time system based on an augmented system approach. A necessary and sufficient condition for stability and strict (Q,S,R)-dissipativity of the closed-loop system is established in terms of a matrix inequality with free parametrisation matrix. An equivalent characterisation with some slack matrices for numerical solvability is then proposed. Based on this, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a desired controller is given, and a corresponding iterative algorithm is developed to solve the condition. The effectiveness of results developed in this article is demonstrated by some numerical examples.     

Dilated LMI characterisations for linear time-invariant singular systems

This article explores, based on projection lemma, dilated linear matrix inequality (LMI) characterisations for linear time-invariant singular systems. The deduced formulations cover not only the existing results reported in the literature, but also complete some missing LMI conditions. This article also lightens the mutual relations of these characterisations and clarifies the relation between the dilated LMIs for the conventional state-space systems and those for singular systems. The well-known results for the state-space setting reported in the literature can be reviewed as special cases.     

Learning Motion of Dexterous Manipulation For A Pair of Multi‐DOF Fingers With Soft‐TIPS

This paper shows that a pair of dual multi‐DOF fingers with soft‐tips can learn iteratively a desired periodic motion of manipulation of an object if sensory feedback signals are designed adequately. It is shown that dynamics of the overall fingers and object system satisfy passivity but residual error dynamics for a given periodic posture of the object and a fixed value of contact force satisfy output‐dissipativity only in an approximate sense. Numerical simulation results are presented which show that the pair of fingers manipulating an object is capable of learning iteratively a variety of dexterous motions with a good performance.     

Local design of distributed H∞‐consensus filtering over sensor networks under multiplicative noises and deception attacks

This paper is concerned with the local design of the distributed H_∞‐consensus filtering problem for a class of discrete time‐varying systems subject to both multiplicative noises and deception attacks over sensor networks. The target plant and the measuring sensors are disturbed by multiplicative noises with known statistics. The malicious signal involved in deception attacks is constrained by a specific sector‐like bounded condition, which reflects certain tolerable bound on the difference between the attack signal and the true signal. Attention is paid to the design of filter gains for guaranteeing a desirable filtering performance that simultaneously characterizes the filtering accuracy and the consensus requirement. To handle the proposed filtering problem, the supply rate function is firstly chosen for each node and then the dissipation matrix is constructed as a column substochastic matrix based on the stochastic vector dissipation theory. Subsequently, sufficient conditions by means of recursive linear matrix inequalities are presented for each node such that the filtering error and the consensus error satisfy the desirable H_∞‐consensus performance index over a finite horizon. Finally, an illustrative simulation is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed filter strategy.     

Dissipativity‐based asynchronous control of discrete‐time Markov jump systems with mixed time delays

This paper addresses the problem of dissipativity‐based asynchronous control for a class of discrete‐time Markov jump systems. A unified framework to design a controller for discrete‐time Markov jump systems with mixed time delays is proposed, which is fairly general and can be reduced to a synchronous controller or a mode‐independent controller. Based on a stochastic Lyapunov function approach, which fully utilizes available information of the system mode and the controller, a sufficient condition is established to ensure the stochastic stability and strictly ( , , ) dissipative performance of the resulting closed‐loop system. Finally, the effectiveness and validity of the proposed method are illustrated with a simulation example.     

Dissipativity and nonlinear systems with finite power gain

In this paper we present a generalization of the concept of dissipativity to include systems which exhibit finite power gain. Included in this is a generalization of supply rate, available storage, and the integral and differential forms of the appropriate dissipation inequality. We show that under certain conditions, systems which are power dissipative are also stable in the sense that the trajectory is eventually bounded. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
