Exponential quasi‐(Q,S,R)‐dissipativity and practical stability for switched nonlinear systems

In this paper, the problems of exponential quasi‐(Q,S,R)‐dissipativity and practical stability analysis for a switched nonlinear system are addressed. First, the concept of exponential quasi‐(Q,S,R)‐dissipativity for switched nonlinear systems without requiring the exponential quasi‐(Q,S,R)‐dissipativity property of each subsystem is proposed. Then, we show that an exponentially quasi‐(Q,S,R)‐dissipative switched nonlinear system is practically stable. Second, this exponential quasi‐(Q,S,R)‐ dissipativity property for a switched nonlinear system is obtained by the design of a state‐dependent switching law. Third, a composite state‐dependent switching law is designed to render the feedback interconnection of switched nonlinear systems exponentially quasi‐(Q,S,R)‐dissipative. This switching law allows interconnected switched nonlinear systems to switch asynchronously. Finally, the effectiveness of the results is verified by a numerical example.     

Geometrically (Q,S, R)‐Incremental Dissipativity and Incremental Stability for Switched Time‐Varying Nonlinear Discrete‐Time Systems

This paper investigates geometrically (Q,S,R)‐incremental dissipativity and incremental stability for switched time‐varying nonlinear discrete‐time systems. A geometrically (Q,S,R)‐incremental dissipativity concept is proposed for switched nonlinear discrete‐time systems by using multiple storage functions and multiple incremental supply rate. Furthermore, the sufficient conditions of geometrically (Q,S,R)‐incremental dissipativity are given under the design of state‐dependent switching law. The incremental stability conditions are derived for geometrically (Q,S,R)‐incrementally dissipative switched systems. By designing of a composite state‐dependent switching law, the feedback interconnected switched systems are ensured to be geometrically (Q,S,R)‐incrementally dissipative. A numerical example is given to illustrate the validity of the proposed approach.     

Determining Dissipativity of Switched Nonlinear Systems Using Linearization

Local strict QSR‐dissipativity of a switched nonlinear system is studied using the linearization technique in this paper. We obtain local strict QSR‐dissipativity of a switched system even if each subsystem is not locally strictly QSR dissipative by designing a switching law. The derived dissipative sufficient condition is characterized by a modified Lyapunov‐Metzler inequality that can be simplified as an LMI by assuming specific forms. Two special forms of local strict QSR‐dissipativity, local input state strict passivity and local L₂‐gain, are considered. When the approximate errors of a switched affine system satisfy certain conditions, local strict passivity can be drawn from its linearization. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate how to apply the proposed method to achieve passivity of switched nonlinear systems.     

Delay‐dependent dissipativity analysis and synthesis of switched delay systems

In this paper, we study the problem of dissipative analysis for a class of switched systems with time‐varying delays. Sufficient conditions for dissipativity are developed for a class of switching signals with average dwell time. These conditions express delay‐dependent exponential stability and are provided in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). It is shown that the derived results encompass some available results on ??_∞ approach and arbitrary switching case. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the developed results.

Exponentially incremental dissipativity for nonlinear stochastic switched systems

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we investigate the exponentially incremental dissipativity for nonlinear stochastic switched systems by using the designed state-dependent switching law and multiple Lyapunov functions approach. Specifically, using incremental supply rate as well as a state dissipation inequality in expectation, a stochastic version of exponentially incremental dissipativity is presented. The sufficient conditions for nonlinear stochastic switched systems to be exponentially incrementally dissipative are given by the designed state-dependent switching law. Furthermore, the extended Kalman–Yakubovich–Popov conditions are derived by using two times continuously differentiable storage functions. Moreover, the incremental stability conditions in probability for nonlinear stochastic switched systems are derived based on exponentially incremental dissipativity. The exponentially incremental dissipativity is preserved for the feedback-interconnected nonlinear stochastic switched systems with the composite state-dependent switching law; meanwhile, the incremental stability in probability is preserved under some certain conditions. A numerical example is given to illustrate the validity of our results.     

Exponential dissipativity analysis of discrete‐time switched memristive neural networks with actuator saturation via quasi‐time‐dependent control

The dissipativity of discrete‐time switched memristive neural networks with actuator saturation is considered in this paper. By constructing a quasi‐time‐dependent Lyapunov function, sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the exponential stability and exponential dissipativity for the closed‐loop system with mode‐dependent average dwell time switching. Furthermore, the exponential H_∞ performance of discrete‐time switched memristive neural networks is also analyzed, while the quasi‐time‐dependent controller and observer gains of the desired exponential dissipative and H_∞ performance can be calculated from linear matrix inequalities. Finally, the effectiveness of theoretical results is illustrated through the numerical examples.     

A dissipative dynamical systems approach to stability analysis of time delay systems

In this paper the concepts of dissipativity and the exponential dissipativity are used to provide sufficient conditions for guaranteeing asymptotic stability of a time delay dynamical system. Specifically, representing a time delay dynamical system as a negative feedback interconnection of a finite‐dimensional linear dynamical system and an infinite‐dimensional time delay operator, we show that the time delay operator is dissipative with respect to a quadratic supply rate and with a storage functional involving an integral term identical to the integral term appearing in standard Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals. Finally, using stability of feedback interconnection results for dissipative systems, we develop sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability of time delay dynamical systems. The overall approach provides a dissipativity theoretic interpretation of Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals for asymptotically stable dynamical systems with arbitrary time delay.

Implications of dissipativity,inverse optimal control,and stability margins for nonlinear stochastic feedback regulators

In this paper, we derive stability margins for optimal and inverse optimal stochastic feedback regulators. Specifically, gain, sector, and disk margin guarantees are obtained for nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems controlled by nonlinear optimal and inverse optimal Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Bellman controllers that minimize a nonlinear‐nonquadratic performance criterion with cross‐weighting terms. Furthermore, using the newly developed notion of stochastic dissipativity, we derive a return difference inequality to provide connections between stochastic dissipativity and optimality of nonlinear controllers for stochastic dynamical systems. In particular, using extended Kalman‐Yakubovich‐Popov conditions characterizing stochastic dissipativity, we show that our optimal feedback control law satisfies a return difference inequality predicated on the infinitesimal generator of a controlled Markov diffusion process if and only if the controller is stochastically dissipative with respect to a specific quadratic supply rate.     

A generalized approach to stabilization of linear interconnected time‐delay systems

The objective of this paper is to propose a generalized approach to stabilization of systems which are composed of linear time‐delay subsystems coupled by linear time‐varying interconnections. The proposed algorithms, which are formulated within the convex optimization framework, provide decentralized solutions to the problem of delay‐dependent asymptotic stability with strict dissipativity. It is established that the new methodology can reproduce earlier results on passivity, positive realness and disturbance attenuation. Then a decentralized structure of dissipative state‐feedback controllers is designed to render the closed‐loop interconnected system delay‐dependent asymptotically stable with strict dissipativity. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the applicability of the design method. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley and Sons Asia Pte Ltd and Chinese Automatic Control Society     

Dissipative control for Markov jump non-linear stochastic systems based on T–S fuzzy model

The dissipative analysis and control problems for a class of Markov jump non-linear stochastic systems (MJNSSs) are investigated. A sufficient condition for the dissipativity of MJNSSs is given in terms of coupled non-linear Hamilton–Jacobi inequalities (HJIs). Generally, it is difficult to solve the coupled HJIs. In this paper, based on T–S fuzzy model, the dissipative analysis and controller design for MJNSSs is proposed via solving a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) instead of HJIs. Finally, a numerical example is presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Dissipative stochastic differential systems with risk-sensitive storage function and control design problems

We consider stochastic control-affine systems defined by a differential Itô-type equation. A new notion of dissipativity with risk-sensitive storage function is introduced, and corresponding theory of dissipative systems is developed. Problems of finding storage function and control which ensures dissipativity are explicitly solved. In a linear-quadratic case the final results are expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Connections to risk-sensitivity, differential (stochastic and deterministic) games, and deterministic ?_∞-control theory are established. An example is given.     

Observer-based dissipative control for Markovian jump systems via delta operators

This paper addresses the issue of observer-based dissipative control problem for a class of Markovian jump systems with random delay via delta operator approach. First, based on the construction of a novel Lyapunov functional together with the use of free-weighting matrix approach, a new set of sufficient conditions is established which ensures the stochastic asymptotic stability and dissipativity of the closed-loop augmented Markovian jump delta operator system. Next, the result is extended to design an observer-based state feedback dissipative control law such that the resulting closed-loop system is stochastically asymptotically stable with the desired dissipative performance index. Further, the existence of control laws is formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) which can be easily solved by using some standard numerical packages. Also, the observer and control gains can be calculated by using the solutions of an obtained set of LMIs. It is worth pointing out that the dissipative control problem considered here includes the H_∞ and passivity-based control problems as special cases. Finally, two numerical examples with simulation are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the obtained design technique.

Finite-time event-triggered extended dissipative control for discrete time switched linear systems

This paper considers the problem of finite-time event-triggered extended dissipative control for a class of discrete time switched linear systems. The proposed system is modeled as a discrete time switched linear system with an event-triggered control scheme. Under the event-triggered transmission schemes, we give some sufficient conditions to guarantee the finite-time extended dissipative performance of the closed-loop switched system in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Furthermore, the state feedback controller gains are proposed by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.     

Study on the stability of switched dissipative Hamiltonian systems

The hybrid Hamiltonian system is a kind of important nonlinear hybrid systems. Such a system not only plays an important role in the development of hybrid control theory, but also finds many applications in practical control designs for obtaining better control performances. This paper investigates the stability of switched dissipative Hamiltonian systems under arbitrary switching paths. Under a realistic assumption, it is shown that the Hamiltonian functions of all the subsystems can be used as the multiple-Lyapunov functions for the switched dissipative Hamiltonian system. Based on this and using the dissipative Hamiltonian structural properties, this paper then proves that the P-norm of the state of switched dissipative Hamiltonian system converges to zero with the time increasing, and presents two sufficient conditions for the asymptotical stability under arbitrary switching paths. Utilizing these new results, this paper also obtains two useful corollaries for the asymptotical stability of switched nonlinear time-invariant systems. Finally, two examples are studied by using the new results proposed in this paper, and some numerical simulations are carried out to support our new results.

Unified dwell time–based stability and stabilization criteria for switched linear stochastic systems and their application to intermittent control

This paper considers the stability and stabilization problems for the switched linear stochastic systems under dwell time constraints, where the considered systems can be composed of an arbitrary combination of stable and unstable subsystems. First, a time‐varying discretized Lyapunov function is constructed based on the projection of a linear Lagrange interpolant and a switching‐time‐dependent “weighted” function. The “weighted” function not only enforces the Lyapunov function to decrease at switching instants but also coordinates the dynamical behavior of the subsystems. As a result, some unified criteria for mean square stability and almost sure stability of the switched stochastic systems are established in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Based on the obtained stochastic stability criteria, 2 types of state feedback controllers for the systems are designed. Moreover, the novel results are applied to solve the intermittent control or the controller failure problems. Finally, conservatism analysis and numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the established theoretical results.
