Quadratic stabilizability of switched linear systems with polytopic uncertainties

In this paper, we consider quadratic stabilizability via state feedback for both continuous-time and discrete-time switched linear systems that are composed of polytopic uncertain subsystems. By state feedback, we mean that the switchings among subsystems are dependent on system states. For continuous-time switched linear systems, we show that if there exists a common positive definite matrix for stability of all convex combinations of the extreme points which belong to different subsystem matrices, then the switched system is quadratically stabilizable via state feedback. For discrete-time switched linear systems, we derive a quadratic stabilizability condition expressed as matrix inequalities with respect to a family of non-negative scalars and a common positive definite matrix. For both continuous-time and discrete-time switched systems, we propose the switching rules by using the obtained common positive definite matrix.     

Detectability and Stabilizability of Discrete-Time Switched Linear Systems

For discrete-time switched linear systems under nondeterministic autonomous switching, the existence of causal finite-path-dependent stabilizing output injection and state feedback laws are characterized by increasing unions of linear matrix inequality conditions. These convex characterizations lead to the notions of causal finite-path-dependent detectability and stabilizability, which in turn yield a separation result for dynamic output feedback stabilization. By generalizing the standard duality concept to switched systems under arbitrary switching path constraints, we relate these notions to direct extensions of time-varying detectability and stabilizability requirements.      

Disturbance localization for left invertible linear periodic discrete-time systems

The disturbance localization problem for left invertible linear periodic discrete-time systems is solved using periodic state feedback controllers. The proposed technique is of algebraic nature and has the following two main characteristics: (i) It yields simple algebraic criteria for testing the solvability of the problem, as compared to known geometric criteria, which may not be so easy to check. (ii) It derives analytically the general expressions of all periodic controllers admissible for disturbance localization, as compared to known techniques, which lead to nonanalytic parametrizations of the admissible controllers via constructive procedures. Moreover, for the aforementioned class of periodic systems, the state feedback simultaneous disturbance localization and stabilization or pole placement problem is treated, and conditions for its solvability are established, on the basis of a decentralized control approach, that makes use of the equivalence between the above problem and the stabilization or pole placement problem of a general proper multichannel system by decentralized static output feedback.     

A parametric periodic Lyapunov equation with application in semi-global stabilization of discrete-time periodic systems subject to actuator saturation

This paper is concerned with semi-global stabilization of discrete-time linear periodic systems subject to actuator saturation. Provided that the open loop characteristic multipliers are within the closed unit circle, a low gain feedback design approach is proposed to solve the problem by state feedback. Our approach is based on the solution to a parametric discrete-time periodic Lyapunov equation. The proposed approaches not only generalize the corresponding results for time-invariant systems to periodic systems, but also reveal some important intrinsic properties of this class of periodic matrix equations. A numerical example is worked out to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.     

An LMI approach to stabilization of linear discrete-time periodic systems

The problem of stabilization of linear discrete-time periodic systems is considered. LMI based conditions for stabilization via static periodic state feedback as well as via static periodic output feedback are presented. In the case of state feedback, the conditions are necessary and sufficient whereas for output feedback the result is only sufficient as it depends on the particular state-space representation used to describe the system. The problem of quadratic stabilization in the presence of either norm-bounded or polytopic parameter uncertainty is also treated. As an application of the output feedback stabilization technique, we consider the problem of designing a stabilizing (respectively, quadratically stabilizing) static periodic output feedback controller for linear time-invariant discrete-time systems which are not stabilizable (respectively, quadratically stabilizable) by static constant output feedback.     

Quadratic stabilization of switched systems

We consider quadratic stabilization of uncertain switched systems when a switching rule is imposed on state feedback controllers of subsystems. A method is proposed to constructively design switching rules for continuous and discrete-time switched systems with norm-bounded time-varying uncertainties. The switching rules designed via this method do not rely on uncertainties, and the switched system is quadratically stabilizable via switched state feedback for all uncertainties.

Communication and control co-design for networked control systems

This paper discusses the stabilization of a networked control system (NCS) in which sensors and actuators of a plant exchange information with a remote controller via a shared communication medium. Access to that medium is governed by a pair of periodic communication sequences. Under the model utilized here, the controller and plant handle communication disruptions by “ignoring” (in a sense to be made precise) sensors and actuators that are not actively communicating. This choice has the effect of significantly reducing the complexity of selecting control/communication policies. It is shown that, for discrete-time NCS, the reachability and observability of the plant can be preserved if the communication sequences are chosen properly. We propose a method for exponentially stabilizing a NCS by first identifying a pair of communication sequences that preserve reachability and observability and then designing an observer-based feedback controller based on those sequences.     

Stabilization and second‐order optimization for multimodule impulsive switched linear systems

In this work, we investigate stabilization and optimization issues for a class of multimodule impulsive switched linear systems. First, we establish a necessary and sufficient criterion on asymptotic stabilizability via a pathwise state‐feedback scheme, which achieves the merits of both time‐driven and state‐feedback mechanisms. Then, we present an impulse/switching instant optimization problem that usually arises in finite‐horizon optimal control. To reduce the computational burden, we propose a novel method via developing efficiently computable expressions for the cost function, the gradient vector, and the Hessian matrix. Next, we design a second‐order optimization algorithm searching for the optimal impulse/switching instants. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Observer-based output feedback control of discrete-time linear systems with input and output delays

In this paper, we study observer-based output feedback control of discrete-time linear systems with both multiple input and output delays. By generalising our recently developed truncated predictor feedback approach for state feedback stabilisation of discrete-time time-delay systems to the design of observer-based output feedback, two types of observer-based output feedback controllers, one being memory and the other memoryless, are constructed. Both full-order and reduced-order observer-based controllers are established in both the memory and memoryless schemes. It is shown that the separation principle holds for the memory observer-based output feedback controllers, but does not hold for the memoryless ones. We further show that the proposed observer-based output feedback controllers solve both the l₂ and l_∞ semi-global stabilisation problems. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.

Analysis and synthesis of nonlinear time-delay systems via fuzzycontrol approach

Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models (1985, 1992) can provide an effective representation of complex nonlinear systems in terms of fuzzy sets and fuzzy reasoning applied to a set of linear input/output (I/O) submodels. In this paper, the TS fuzzy model approach is extended to the stability analysis and control design for both continuous and discrete-time nonlinear systems with time delay. The TS fuzzy models with time delay are presented and the stability conditions are derived using Lyapunov-Krasovskii approach. We also present a stabilization approach for nonlinear time-delay systems through fuzzy state feedback and fuzzy observer-based controller. Sufficient conditions for the existence of fuzzy state feedback gain and fuzzy observer gain are derived through the numerical solution of a set of coupled linear matrix inequalities. An illustrative example based on the CSTR model is given to design a fuzzy controller     

Controllability and stabilizability of a networked control system with periodic communication constraints

This paper proposes a new model for a networked control system and considers its controllability and stabilizability. To control a linear time-invariant discrete-time plant via a bus with limited capacity, we introduce a hold device and a communication sequence which follows a given ω-periodic pattern. Incorporating the communication sequences and hold device into the original plant amounts to extending the original time-invariant state equation to a ω-periodic one which has the higher order. We assume that the communication sequence is admissible. It is shown that controllability and stabilizability of the plant are preserved in the periodic extended system under the assumption that the zeros of the communication sequence characteristic polynomial do not coincide with the eigenvalues of the plant.

Delay-dependent stability analysis and stabilization for discrete-time fuzzy systems with state delay: a fuzzy Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach.

This correspondence studies stability analysis and stabilization for discrete-time Takagi and Sugeno fuzzy systems with state delay. First, a new fuzzy Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) is constructed to derive a delay-dependent stability condition for open-loop fuzzy systems. Then, a delay-dependent stabilization approach based on a nonparallel distributed compensation scheme is provided for closed-loop fuzzy systems. Both state feedback and observer-based control cases are considered. The proposed stability and stabilization conditions are represented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be solved efficiently by using existing LMI optimization techniques. Finally, two numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Construction of switching sequences for reachability realization of switched impulsive control systems

This paper studies the construction of switching sequences for reachability realization of switched impulsive control systems. An approach is proposed to design switching sequences so that the reachable subspace of switched impulsive control systems is expressed in terms of the reachable state sets of the designed switching sequences. For a class of switched impulsive control systems, it is proved that a single switching sequence can be designed with its reachable state set coinciding with the reachable subspace. Periodic switching sequences are also constructed in this paper for the reachability realization problem. The results present a new way to exploit the switching mechanism to achieve the reachability and controllability of switched impulsive control systems. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
