Control of the spectrum of irregular oscillations of linear systems with coinciding ranks of the matrix multiplying the control and the extended matrix

We consider a linear periodic control system such that the ranks of the matrix multiplying the control and the extended matrix consisting of the averaged coefficient matrix and the matrix multiplying the control are the same. We assume that the control has the form of feedback linear in the state variables and is periodic with the same period as the system itself. We pose the problem of control of the frequency spectrum of strongly irregular periodic oscillations with an objective set, that is, the problem of finding a feedback coefficient such that the closed system has a strongly irregular periodic solution with the desired frequencies. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of this problem.     

Spectrum control problem for strongly irregular periodic vibrations of linear systems with zero mean of the coefficient matrix

We consider a linear periodic control system with zero mean of the coefficient matrix and with linear state feedback control periodic with the same period. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the frequency spectrum control problem with a given goal set for strongly irregular periodic vibrations. In this problem, one should find a feedback coefficient such that the closed system has a strongly irregular periodic solution with the desired frequencies.     

Control of asynchronous spectrum of linear systems with a two-sided dependence of blocks of complete column rank

We consider a linear periodic control system with a two-sided dependence of blocks of complete column rank in the nonstationary component of the coefficient matrix in the critical case. In this case, the nontrivial intersection of vector subspaces formed by linear spans of the columns in the blocks can be arbitrary. We assume that the control is given in the form of feedback linear in the state variables and is periodic with the period of the system. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the control problem for the asynchronous spectrum, that is, the problem of finding a feedback coefficient such that the closed system has a strongly irregular periodic solution with the desired frequencies.     

Asynchronous pole assignment for linear systems with independent blocks

We consider a linear periodic control system with linearly independent column bases of the blocks of the coefficient matrix, which has zero mean value and admits a block triangular representation. For the case of a linear state feedback control periodic with the same period as the system itself, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the asynchronous pole assignment problem, i.e., the problem of finding a feedback coefficient such that the closed-loop system has a strongly irregular periodic solution with the desired frequencies.

Vibrational stabilization and the Brockett problem

The present paper deals with the exposition of methods for solving the Brockett problem on the stabilization of linear control systems by a nonstationary feedback. The paper consists of two parts. We consider continuous linear control systems in the first part and discrete systems in the second part. In the first part, we consider two approaches to the solution of the Brockett problem. The first approach permits one to obtain low-frequency stabilization, and the second part deals with high-frequency stabilization. Both approaches permit one to derive necessary and sufficient stabilization conditions for two-dimensional (and three-dimensional, for the first approach) linear systems with scalar inputs and outputs. In the second part, we consider an analog of the Brockett problem for discrete linear control systems. Sufficient conditions for low-frequency stabilization of linear discrete systems are obtained with the use of a piecewise constant periodic feedback with sufficiently large period. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the stabilization of two-dimensional discrete systems. In the second part, we also consider the control problem for the spectrum (the pole assignment problem) of the monodromy matrix for discrete systems with a periodic feedback.     

A numerical evaluation of solvers for the periodic Riccati differential equation

Efficient and accurate structure exploiting numerical methods for solving the periodic Riccati differential equation (PRDE) are addressed. Such methods are essential, for example, to design periodic feedback controllers for periodic control systems. Three recently proposed methods for solving the PRDE are presented and evaluated on challenging periodic linear artificial systems with known solutions and applied to the stabilization of periodic motions of mechanical systems. The first two methods are of the type multiple shooting and rely on computing the stable invariant subspace of an associated Hamiltonian system. The stable subspace is determined using either algorithms for computing an ordered periodic real Schur form of a cyclic matrix sequence, or a recently proposed method which implicitly constructs a stable deflating subspace from an associated lifted pencil. The third method reformulates the PRDE as a convex optimization problem where the stabilizing solution is approximated by its truncated Fourier series. As known, this reformulation leads to a semidefinite programming problem with linear matrix inequality constraints admitting an effective numerical realization. The numerical evaluation of the PRDE methods, with focus on the number of states (n) and the length of the period (T) of the periodic systems considered, includes both quantitative and qualitative results.     

Quadratic control for linear periodic systems

We propose a new quadratic control problem for linear periodic systems which can be finite or infinite dimensional. We consider both deterministic and stochastic cases. It is a generalization of average cost criterion, which is usually considered for time-invariant systems. We give sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions.Under stabilizability and detectability conditions we show that the optimal control is given by a periodic feedback which involves the periodic solution of a Riccati equation. The optimal closed-loop system has a unique periodic solution which is globally exponentially asymptotically stable. In the stochastic case we also consider the quadratic problem under partial observation. Under two sets of stabilizability and detectability conditions we obtain the separation principle. The filter equation is not periodic, but we show that it can be effectively replaced by a periodic filter. The theory is illustrated by simple examples.This work was done while this author was a visiting professor at the Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa.     

Master–slave synchronization of continuously and intermittently coupled sampled-data chaotic oscillators

In this paper, we consider the problem of synchronizing a master–slave chaotic system in the sampled-data setting. We consider both the intermittent coupling and continuous coupling cases. We use an Euler approximation technique to discretize a continuous-time chaotic oscillator containing a continuous nonlinear function. Next, we formulate the problem of global asymptotic synchronization of the sampled-data master–slave chaotic system as equivalent to the states of a corresponding error system asymptotically converging to zero for arbitrary initial conditions. We begin by developing a pulse-based intermittent control strategy for chaos synchronization. Using the discrete-time Lyapunov stability theory and the linear matrix inequality (LMI) framework, we construct a state feedback periodic pulse control law which yields global asymptotic synchronization of the sampled-data master–slave chaotic system for arbitrary initial conditions. We obtain a continuously coupled sampled-data feedback control law as a special case of the pulse-based feedback control. Finally, we provide experimental validation of our results by implementing, on a set of microcontrollers endowed with RF communication capability, a sampled-data master–slave chaotic system based on Chua’s circuit.     

Optimization of periodic systems

The problem of designing a regulator, optimal by a quadratic performance criterion, on an infinite time interval is examined for a linear periodic system. It is assumed that the control plant's motion is described by a system of linear periodic finite-difference equations. Controllable plants whose motion is described by differential and by finite-difference equations on different parts of the period are analyzed as well. The optimal regulator design problem is reduced to the determination of a periodic solution of an appropriate Riccati equation. An algorithm for constructing such a solution is derived. It is noted that this result can be used in periodic optimization problems /1/ and in the design of a stabilization system for a pacing apparatus.

Periodic solutions of affine stochastic differential equations

We discuss the problem of the existence of periodic and stationary solutions of affine stochastic differential equations. We prove that under a controllability condition the system has a periodic solution if and only if the linear part is eyponentially stable in mean square.

It is also shown that the controllability assumption is necessary for the existence of a “unique” weakly periodic solution with nondegenerate covariance.     

On the existence of periodic solutions for the quasi‐linear third order system of O.D.Es

In this paper we concern with the nonlinear third order quasi‐linear system of ordinary differential equations as: X′′′ + Λ X′ = ϵ F(X, X′, X″) where X ∈ ℝⁿ and Λ is a diagonal matrix. We obtain some simple sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solution using theorem of Brouer's degree. As we showed earlier [1], the scalar form the (1) can be treated by the Implicit Function Theorem instead of Brouer degree. Also because of the possibility of rewriting a 2n + 1 order equation into a third order system by a simple transformation [2], we can obtain useful results for such equations too. The main problem for this kind of equations is the validity of the results for the parameter free problem, i.e. when ϵ = 1. We consider it by study of dynamic of curves formed by the initial conditions that force the system be periodic when ϵ starts to increase.     

Controllability and stabilizability of linear time‐varying distributed hereditary control systems

This paper is concerned with the controllability and stabilizability problem for control systems described by a time‐varying linear abstract differential equation with distributed delay in the state variables. An approximate controllability property is established, and for periodic systems, the stabilization problem is studied. Assuming that the semigroup of operators associated with the uncontrolled and non delayed equation is compact, and using the characterization of the asymptotic stability in terms of the spectrum of the monodromy operator of the uncontrolled system, it is shown that the approximate controllability property is a sufficient condition for the existence of a periodic feedback control law that stabilizes the system. The result is extended to include some systems which are asymptotically periodic. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A note on Riemann problems for single‐periodic polyanalytic functions

In this article, a new canonical function has been established to deal with Riemann boundary‐value problem of periodic analytic functions discussed in 16 . In comparison with the corresponding result in 16 , the expression of solution obtained here is much simpler. Then, we demonstrate the equivalence of solutions for the homogeneous Riemann problem. What's more, we obtain the precise rank of matrix of coefficients for the system of linear algebraic equations (4.35) in 16 . Those results can simplify the discussion of Riemann problem of single‐periodic polyanalytic functions in 16 .
