Decentralized Adaptive Robust State Feedback for Uncertain Large-Scale Interconnected Systems with Time Delays

The problem of the decentralized robust control is considered for a class of large-scale time-varying systems withdelayed state perturbations and external disturbances in the interconnections. Here, the upper bounds of the delayed stateperturbations and external disturbances in the interconnections are assumed to be unknown. Adaptation laws areproposed to estimate such unknown bounds; by making use of the updated values of the unknown bounds, decentralized linear and nonlinear memoryless robust state feedback controllers are constructed. Based on Lyapunov stability theoryand Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals, as well as employing the proposed decentralized nonlinear robust state feedback controllers, it is shown that the solutions of the resulting adaptive closed-loop large-scale time-delay system can be guaranteed to be uniformly bounded and that the states converge uniformly and asymptotically to zero. It is also shown that the proposed decentralized linear robust state feedback controllers can guarantee the uniform ultimate boundedness of the resulting adaptive closed-loop large-scale time-delay system. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the validity of the results.

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.     

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.

In this paper, the robust guaranteed cost control problem for a class of uncertain linear differential systems of neutral type with a given quadratic cost functions is investigated. The uncertainty is assumed to be norm-bounded and time-varying nonlinear. The problem is to design a state feedback control laws such that the closed-loop system is robustly stable and the closed-loop cost function value is not more than a specified upper bound for all admissible uncertainty and time delay. A criterion for the existence of such controllers is derived based on the matrix inequality approach combined with the Lyapunov method. A parameterized characterization of the robust guaranteed cost controllers is given in terms of the feasible solutions to the certain 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.

Based on sliding mode control ideas, a kind of decentralized robust control scheme using only output information is presented to stabilize the system. The approach allows more general uncertain interconnections than all of the associated existing work and better robustness is achieved. Compared with existing decentralized output feedback schemes, it is unnecessary to solve Lyapunov equations and the so-called strict structural condition is avoided. Also, it is not necessary that the nominal subsystem is output feedback stabilizable. Finally, a simulation example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the results.

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.     

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.
