Non-fragile guaranteed cost control for uncertain neutral large-scale interconnected systems

This paper focuses on the problem of non-fragile decentralized guaranteed cost control for uncertain neutral large-scale interconnected systems with time-varying delays in state, control input and interconnections. A novel scheme, viewing the interconnections with time-varying delays as effective information but not disturbances, is developed. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, using various techniques of decomposing and magnifying matrices, a design method of the non-fragile decentralized guaranteed cost controller for unperturbed neutral large-scale interconnected systems is proposed and the guaranteed cost is presented. The further results are derived for the uncertain case from the criterion of unperturbed neutral large-scale interconnected systems. Finally, an illustrative example shows that the results are significantly better than the existing results in the literatures.

Global stabilizing controller design for linear time-varying systems and its application on BTT missiles

A parametric method for the gain-scheduled controller design of a linear time-varying system is given. According to the proposed scheduling method, the performance between adjacent characteristic points is preserved by the invariant eigenvalues and the gradually varying eigenvectors. A sufficient stability criterion is given by constructing a series of Lyapunov functions based on the selected discrete characteristic points. An important contribution is that it provides a simple and feasible approach for the design of gain-scheduled controllers for linear time-varying systems, which can guarantee both the global stability and the desired closed-loop performance of the resulted system. The method is applied to the design of a BTT missile autopilot and the simulation results show that the method is superior to the traditional one in sense of either global stability or system performance.     

Adaptive Event-Triggering Consensus for Multi-Agent Systems with Linear Time-Varying Dynamics

In this paper, the authors study the fully distributed event-triggering consensus problem for multi-agent systems with linear time-varying dynamics, where each agent is described by a linear time-varying system. An adaptive event-triggering protocol is proposed for time-varying multi-agent systems under directed graph. Based on the Gramian matrix of linear time-varying systems, the design of control gain is done and sufficient conditions ensuring the consensus of linear time-varying multi-agent systems are obtained. It is shown that the coupling strength is closely related to the triggering condition. When it comes to undirected graph, it is shown that the coupling strength is independent on the triggering condition and thus the design procedure is of more freedom than the directed case. In addition, it is also proved that Zeno behaviours can be excluded in the proposed protocols. A numerical example is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

     

Delay-dependent exponential stability of impulsive stochastic systems with time-varying delay

The problem of delay-dependent exponential stability is investigated for impulsive stochastic systems with time-varying delay.Although the exponential stability of impulsive stochastic delay systems has been discussed by several authors,few works have been done on delay-dependent exponential stability of impulsive stochastic delay systems.Firstly,the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional method combing the free-weighting matrix approach is applied to investigate this problem.Some delay-dependent mean square exponential stability criteria are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities.In particular,the estimate of the exponential convergence rate is also provided,which depends on system parameters and impulsive effects.The obtained results show that the system will stable if the impulses’ frequency and amplitude are suitably related to the increase or decrease of the continuous flows,and impulses may be used as controllers to stabilize the underlying stochastic system.Numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the results.     

New results on the robust stability analysis of neural networks with discrete and distributed time delays

Delay-dependent robust stability of cellular neural networks with time-varying discrete and distributed time-varying delays is considered. Based on Lyapunov stability theory and the linear matrix inequality （LMIs） technique, delay-dependent stability criteria are derived in terms of LMIs avoiding bounding certain cross terms, which often leads to conservatism. The effectiveness of the proposed stability criteria and the improvement over the existing results are illustrated in the numerical examples.     

Delay-dependent stability and stabilization of a class of linear switched time-varying delay systems

The stability and stabilization of a class of linear switched time-varying delay systems are investigated. A piecewise quadratic Lyapunov function (PWQLF) is constructed and is used to obtain the stability conditions based on the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The stabilizing controller for this class of system is then designed and the solution of the desired controller can be obtained by a cone complementary linearization algorithm. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the less conservativeness of the new stability and the validity of the controller design procedures.

Finally, two well-known numerical examples are used to confirm the effectiveness and the superiority of the presented stability criteria.

Delay-dependent passive control of linear systems with nonlinear perturbation

The problem of delay-dependent passive control of a class of linear systems with nonlinear perturbation and time-varying delay in states is studied. The main idea aims at designing a state-feedback controller such that for a time-varying delay in states, the linear system with nonlinear perturbation remains robustly stable and passive. In the system, the delay is time-varying. And the derivation of delay has the maximum and minimum value. The time-varying nonlinear perturbation is allowed to be norm-bounded. Using the effective linear matrix inequality methodology, the sufficient condition is primarily obtained for the system to have robust stability and passivity. Subsequently the existent condition of a state feedback controller is given, and the explicit expression of the controller is obtained by means of the solution of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）. In the end, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the proposed approach.

Robust generalized H2 control:time-delay case

Generalized H2 control problem is considered for a class of linear time-delay systems covering linear timeinvariant (LTI) case and time-varying but norm-bounded linear differential inclusion (NLDI) case. The issues focus on the synthesis of so-called generalized H2 controller, which guarantees internal/robust stability and a certain performance level of generalized H2 norm of resulting closed-loop system. By using Lyapunov functional technique, sufficient conditions for the existence of such a kind of controllers are obtained in terms of two linear matrix inequalities (LMIs).In the state space, for memoryless state feedback case, we treat the controller design in a unified framework for both LTI and NLDI. The presented results are illustrated by numerical examples.     

Disturbance Attenuation State-Feedback Control for Uncertain Interconnected Systems

This paper studies the problem of robust H∞ control design for a class of uncertain interconnected systems via state feedback.

Using the Riccati-equation-based approach we design state feedback control laws, which guarantee the decentralized stability with disturbance attenuation for the interconnected uncertain systems. A simple example of an interconnected uncertain linear system is presented to illustrate the results.
