Constrained feedback control of imperfectly known singularly perturbed non-linear systems

Global attractors are investigated for a class of imperfectly known, singularly perturbed, dynamic control systems. The uncertain systems are modelled as non-linear perturbations to a known non-linear idealized system and are represented by two time-scale subsystems. The two subsystems, which depend on a scalar singular perturbation parameter, represent a singularly perturbed system which has the property that the system reduces to one of lower order when the singular perturbation parameter is set to zero. It is assumed that the full-order system is subject to constraints on the control inputs. A class of constrained feedback controllers is developed which assures global uniform attraction of a compact set, containing the state origin, for all values of the singular perturbation parameter less than some threshold value.
