Delay-dependent nonfragile guaranteed cost control for nonlinear time-delay systems

This paper concerns the nonfragile guaranteed cost control problem for a class of nonlinear dynamic systems with multiple time delays and controller gain perturbations. Guaranteed cost control law is designed under two classes of perturbations, namely, additive form and multiplicative form. The problem is to design a memoryless state feedback control law such that the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable and the closed-loop cost function value is not more than a specified upper bound for all admissible uncertainties. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, some delay-dependent conditions for the existence of such controller are derived. A numerical example is given to illustrate the proposed method.

Guaranteed Cost Control for a Class of Uncertain Stochastic Impulsive Systems with Markovian Switching

Abstract

This article is concerned with the problem of guaranteed cost control for a class of uncertain stochastic impulsive systems with Markovian switching. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time that such a problem is investigated for stochastic impulsive systems with Markovian switching. For an uncontrolled system, the conditions in terms of certain linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are obtained for robust stochastical stability and an upper bound is given for the cost function. For the controlled systems, a set of LMIs is developed to design a linear state feedback controller which can stochastically stabilize the class of systems under study and guarantee the given cost function to have an upper bound. Further, an optimization problem with LMI constraints is formulated to minimize the guaranteed cost of the closed-loop system. Finally, a numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Fuzzy guaranteed cost controller for trajectory tracking in nonlinear systems

In this paper, we propose a fuzzy logic based guaranteed cost controller for trajectory tracking in nonlinear systems. Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model is used to represent the dynamics of a nonlinear system and the controller design is carried out using this fuzzy model. State feedback law is used for building the fuzzy controller whose performance is evaluated using a quadratic cost function. For designing the fuzzy logic based controller which satisfies guaranteed performance, linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach is used. Sufficient conditions are derived in terms of matrix inequalities for minimizing the performance function of the controller. The performance function minimization problem with polynomial matrix inequalities is then transformed into a problem of minimizing a convex performance function involving standard LMIs. This minimization problem can be solved easily and efficiently using the LMI optimization techniques. Our controller design method also ensures that the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable. Simulation study is carried out on a two-link robotic manipulator tracking a reference trajectory. From the results of the simulation study, it is observed that our proposed controller tracks the reference trajectory closely while maintaining a guaranteed minimum cost.     

Output Feedback Guaranteed Cost Control for Uncertain Discrete-Time Systems Using Linear Matrix Inequalities

This paper considers the output feedback guaranteed cost controller design problem for uncertain discrete-time systems. The uncertainty is assumed to be of linear fractional form, unstructured, and is allowed to be time-varying. It is proved that the existence of a guaranteed cost controller is equivalent to the feasibility of a certain linear matrix inequality (LMI), and that a full-order output feedback controller can be constructed in terms of the feasible solution to the LMI. Furthermore, a convex optimization problem is introduced for the selection of a suitable controller minimizing a specified cost bound.     

Guaranteed cost synchronization of a complex dynamical network via dynamic feedback control

In this paper, the problem of guaranteed cost synchronization for a complex network is investigated. In order to achieve the synchronization, two types of guaranteed cost dynamic feedback controller are designed.

Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the proposed method.     

Non-fragile guaranteed cost control of uncertain large-scale systems with time-varying delays

The robust non-fragile guaranteed cost control problem is studied in this paper for a class of uncertain linear large-scale systems with time-varying delays in subsystem interconnections and given quadratic cost functions. The uncertainty in the system is assumed to be norm-bounded and time-varying. Also, the state-feedback gains for subsystems of the large-scale system are assumed to have norm-bounded controller gain variations. The problem is to design state feedback control laws such that the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable and the closed-loop cost function value is not more than a specified upper bound for all admissible uncertainties. Sufficient conditions for the existence of such controllers are derived based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach combined with the Lyapunov method. A parameterized characterization of the robust non-fragile guaranteed cost controllers is given in terms of the feasible solutions to a certain LMI. Finally, in order to show the application of the proposed method, a numerical example is included.

Guaranteed Cost Observer–Based Controls for a Class of Uncertain Neutral Time-Delay Systems

In this paper, guaranteed-cost observer-based controls for a class of uncertain neutral time-delay systems are considered. The asymptotic stabilization for the uncertain neutral systems is guaranteed with an observer-based feedback control. The linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach is used to design the observer-based feedback control system. Two classes of observer-based controls are proposed and their guaranteed costs are given. The control and observer gains are given from the LMI feasible solutions. A convex optimization problem with LMIs is formulated to design the optimal guaranteed-cost observer-based controls which minimize the guaranteed cost of the system considered.

Optimal Guaranteed Cost Control of Linear Systems with Mixed Interval Time-Varying Delayed State and Control

This paper deals with the problem of optimal guaranteed cost control for linear systems with interval time-varying delayed state and control. The time delay is assumed to be a continuous function belonging to a given interval, but not necessary to be differentiable. A linear–quadratic cost function is considered as a performance measure for the closed-loop system. By constructing a set of augmented Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional combined with Newton–Leibniz formula, a guaranteed cost controller design is presented and sufficient conditions for the existence of a guaranteed cost state-feedback for the system are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained result.
