Decentralized Adaptive Robust Tracking and Model Following for Large-Scale Systems Including Delayed State Perturbations in the Interconnections

The problem of decentralized robust tracking and model following is considered for a class of uncertain large-scale systems including delayed state perturbations in the interconnections. In this paper, it is assumed that the upper bounds of the delayed state perturbations, uncertainties, and external disturbances are unknown. A modified adaptation law with σ-modification is introduced to estimate such unknown bounds, and on the basis of the updated values of these unknown bounds, a class of decentralized local memoryless state feedback controllers is constructed for robust tracking of dynamical signals. The proposed decentralized adaptive robust tracking controllers can guarantee that the tracking errors between each time-delay subsystem and the corresponding local reference model without time-delay decrease uniformly asymptotically to zero. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the validity of the results.

Decentralized robust model reference adaptive control for interconnected time-delay systems

In this paper, the problem of decentralized robust model reference control for a class of interconnected time-delay systems is investigated. The interconnections with time-varying time delays considered are high order and the gains are not known. A class of decentralized adaptive feedback controllers are proposed, which can render the resulting closed-loop error system uniformly ultimately bounded stable. A numerical example is given to show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed design techniques.     

Decentralized Stabilizing State Feedback Controllers for a Class of Large-Scale Systems Including State Delays in the Interconnections

The problem of the decentralized stabilization of a class of large-scale nonlinear and linear systems including time-varying delays in the interconnections is considered. By combining the Razumikhin-type theorem with the Lyapunov stability theory, we propose a class of decentralized state feedback controllers which can guarantee always some type of stability of large-scale time-delay systems. In this paper, we assume that the time-varying delays are continuous and bounded nonnegative functions. Furthermore, since the proposed decentralized state feedback controllers are independent of the delays, the results obtained in this paper are applicable to systems without exact knowledge of the delays, i.e., systems with perturbed delays. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the validity of the results.

Decentralized robust control for a class of uncertain large-scale interconnected nonlinear dynamical systems

The problem of the decentralized robust control for a class of large-scale interconnected nonlinear dynamical systems with input interconnection and external interconnection perturbations is considered. Based on the stabilizability of each nominal isolated subsystem (i.e., the isolated subsystem in the absence of interconnection perturbations), a class of decentralized local state feedback controllers is proposed, and some sufficient conditions are derived by making use of the Lyapunov stability criterion such that uncertain large-scale interconnected systems can be stabilized asymptotically by these decentralized state feedback controllers. For large-scale systems with only input interconnection perturbations, such decentralized controllers become a class of decentralized stabilizing state feedback controllers. That is, the decentralized stability of such large-scale systems can be guaranteed always by using the decentralized state feedback controllers proposed in the paper. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the validity of the results.     

The guaranteed cost control for uncertain nonlinear large-scale stochastic systems via state and static output feedback

The guaranteed cost control (GCC) problem involved in decentralized robust control of a class of uncertain nonlinear large-scale stochastic systems with high-order interconnections is considered. After determining the appropriate conditions for the stochastic GCC controller, a class of decentralized local state feedback controllers is derived using the linear matrix inequality (LMI). The extension of the result of the study to the static output feedback control problem is discussed by considering the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions. The efficiency of the proposed design method is demonstrated on the basis of simulation results.     

Sufficient conditions for robust stability of large-scale dynamical systems including delayed states and parameter perturbations in interconnections

The problem of the robust stability of large-scale dynamical systems including delayed states and parameter perturbations in interconnections is considered. By using algebraic Riccati equations and some analytical methods, some sufficient conditions on linear decentralized state feedback controllers are derived so that the systems remain stable in the presence of delayed states and parameter perturbations. Such conditions give some bounds on the perturbations of interconnections with delayed states and uncertain parameters, and result in a quantitative measures of robustness for large-scale dynamical systems including delayed states and uncertain parameters in interconnections. The results obtained in this paper are applicable not only to large-scale systems with multiple time-varying delays, but also to large-scale systems without exact knowledge of the delays, i.e., large-scale systems with uncertain delays.
