摘要
This paper considers the stabilization of the coupled wave systems with spatially-varying coefficients.The authors design a state feedback controller by backstepping method.In contrast to the previous work in the literature,the kernel equations become more complicated and the main difficulty lies in proving the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the kernel equations.Firstly,using the backstepping approach,the authors verify the kernel equations,which is a system of coupled hyperbolic equations with spatially-varying coefficients.Then,the existence and uniqueness of the kernel matrices is obtained.Finally,the authors use a Lyapunov function to get the exponential stabilization of the closed-loop system.A numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.
