Global Output‐Feedback Stabilization for Stochastic Nonlinear Systems with Function Control Coefficients

This paper investigates the global output‐feedback stabilization for a class of stochastic nonlinear systems with function control coefficients. Notably, the systems in question possess control coefficients that are functions of output, rather than constants; hence, they are different from the existing literature on stochastic stabilization. To solve the control problem, an appropriate reduced‐order observer is introduced to reconstruct the unmeasured system states before a smooth output‐feedback controller is designed using the backstepping method, which guarantees that the closed‐loop system is globally asymptotically stable in probability. This paper combines the related results in the deterministic and stochastic setting and gives the first treatment on the global output‐feedback stabilization for the stochastic nonlinear systems with function control coefficients. A simulation example is given also to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.     

Almost Disturbance Decoupling for a Class of Nonlinear Systems Subject to Time‐Delays Via Sampled‐Data Output Feedback Control

This paper considers the problem of almost disturbance decoupling (ADD) via sampled‐data output feedback control for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems subject to time‐delays. Based on output feedback domination approach, a sampled‐data output feedback controller is designed to globally stabilize the system under a lower‐triangular linear growth condition. Gronwall‐Bellman‐like inequality and inductive method are introduced to estimate the state growth in the presence of time‐delays, uncertain nonlinearities and unknown disturbances. The proposed controller can attenuate the influence of disturbances on the output to an arbitrary degree in the L₂ gain sense. Finally, simulation results show the effectiveness of the control method.

Distributed Observer‐based Stabilization of Nonlinear Multi‐agent Systems with Sampled‐data Control

In this paper, the distributed observer‐based stabilization problem of multi‐agent systems under a directed graph is investigated. Distributed observer‐based control protocol with sampled‐data information is proposed. The dynamics of each agent contain a nonlinear part, which is supposed to be general Lipschitz. In order to stabilize the states of the whole network, all the nodes utilize the relative output estimation error at sampling instants and only a small fraction of nodes use the absolute output estimation error additionally. By virtue of the input‐to‐state stability (ISS) property and the Lyapunov stability theory, an algorithm to design the control gain matrix, observer gain matrix, coupling strength as well as the allowable sampling period are derived. The conditions are in the form of LMIs and algebraic inequality, which are simple in form and easy to verify. Some further discussions about the solvability of obtained linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are also given. Lastly, an example is simulated to further validate the obtained results.     

Semi‐global stabilization via linear sampled‐data output feedback for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems

This paper develops a systematic design scheme to construct a linear sampled‐data output feedback controller that semi‐globally asymptotically stabilizes a class of uncertain systems with both higher‐order and linear growth nonlinearities. To deal with the uncertain coefficients in the systems, a robust state feedback stabilizer and a reduced‐order sampled‐data observer, both in the linear form, are constructed and then integrated together. The semi‐global attractivity and local stability are delicately proved by carefully selecting a scaling gain using the output feedback domination approach and a sampling period sufficiently small to restrain the state growth under a zero‐order‐holder input.

Semi‐Global Output Feedback Stabilization for a Class of Uncertain Nonlinear Systems

This paper addresses the problem of semi‐global stabilization by output feedback for a class of nonlinear systems whose output gains are unknown. For each subsystem, we first design a state compensator and use the compensator states to construct a control law to stabilize the nominal linear system without the perturbing nonlinearities. Then, combining the output feedback domination approach with block‐backstepping scheme, a series of homogeneous output feedback controllers are constructed recursively for each subsystem and the closed‐loop system is rendered semi‐globally asymptotically stable.     

Fractional‐Order Dynamic Output Feedback Sliding Mode Control Design for Robust Stabilization of Uncertain Fractional‐Order Nonlinear Systems

A robust fractional‐order dynamic output feedback sliding mode control (DOF‐SMC) technique is introduced in this paper for uncertain fractional‐order nonlinear systems. The control law consists of two parts: a linear part and a nonlinear part. The former is generated by the fractional‐order dynamics of the controller and the latter is related to the switching control component. The proposed DOF‐SMC ensures the asymptotical stability of the fractional‐order closed‐loop system whilst it is guaranteed that the system states hit the switching manifold in finite time. Finally, numerical simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Output Feedback Stabilization of a Class of Uncertain Nonaffine Nonlinear Systems

In this paper, output feedback control is presented for a general class of uncertain nonaffine nonlinear systems, that does not rely on state estimation. Under the condition that only the system output is available for feedback, a dynamic linear filter is built to estimate unknown nonlinearities, and an output feedback controller is developed to stabilize the systems by utilizing the estimation to compensate for the unknown nonlinearities. One important feature of the proposed control is that the controller is developed under mild conditions with simple control algorithms, which is of great significance in engineering practice. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the control approach.

非线性系统的间接自适应模糊输出反馈监督控制

In this paper, an indirect adaptive fuzzy output feedback controller with supervisory mode for a class of unknown nonlinear systems is developed. The proposed approach does not need the availability of the state variables, moreover, a supervisory controller is appended to the adaptive fuzzy controller to force the state to be within the constraint set. Therefore, if the adaptive fuzzy controller cannot maintain the stability, the supervisory controller starts to work to guarantee stability. On the other hand, if the adaptive fuzzy controller works well, the supervisory controller will be deactivated. The overall adaptive fuzzy control scheme guarantees the stability of the whole closed-loop systems. The simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.
