Robust stabilization for a class of nonlinear networked control systems

The problem of robust stabilization for a class of uncertain networked control systems （NCSs） with nonlinearities satisfying a given sector condition is investigated in this paper. By introducing a new model of NCSs with parameter uncertainty, network-induced delay, nonlinearity and data packet dropout in the transmission, a strict linear matrix inequality （LMI） criterion is proposed for robust stabilization of the uncertain nonlinear NCSs based on the Lyapunov stability theory. The maximum allowable transfer interval （MATI） can be derived by solving the feasibility problem of the corresponding LMI. Some numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed algorithm.

Mixed L_1/H-infinity control for uncertain linear singular systems

The mixed L1/H-infinity control problem for a class of uncertain linear singular systems is considered using a matrix inequality approach. The purpose is to design a state feedback control law such that the resultant closed-loop system is regular, impulse-free, stable and satisfies some given mixed L1/H-infinity performance. A sufficient condition for the existence of such control law is given in terms of a set of matrix inequalities by the introduction of inescapable set and ＊-norm. When these matrix inequalities are feasible, an explicit expression of the desired state feedback control law is given. A numerical example is used to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed approach.

Robust D stabilization of singular systems with polytopic uncertainties

The robust D stabilization problem is considered for singular systems with polytopic uncertainties in this paper.Both the derivative matrix E and the state matrix A are with uncertainties,which were not considered before.First,with the introduction of some free matrices,a necessary and sufficient condition for the singular system to be D stable is proposed,based on which,the robust D stable problem is solved,and a sufficient condition for the closed system to be robust D stabilizable is obtained.The desired state feedback controller is given in an explicit expression.Numerical examples show the efficiency of the proposed approach.

Stability analysis for discrete linear systems with state saturation by a saturation-dependent Lyapunov functional

This paper concerns the stability analysis problem of discrete linear systems with state saturation using a saturation-dependent Lyapunov functional. We introduce a free matrix characterized by the sum of the absolute value of each elements for each row less than 1, which makes the state with saturation constraint reside in a convex polyhedron. A saturation-dependent Lyapunov functional is then designed to obtain a sufficient condition for such systems to be globally asymptotically stable. Based on this stability criterion, the state feedback control law synthesis problem is also studied. The obtained results are formulated in terms of bilinear matrix inequalities that can be solved by the presented iterative linear matrix ineoualitv algorithm. Two numerical examoles are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the nronosed method_
