Semi-definite programming and functional inequalities for Distributed Parameter Systems
We study one-dimensional integral inequalities, with quadratic integrands, on
bounded domains. Conditions for these inequalities to hold are formulated in
terms of function matrix inequalities which must hold in the domain of
integration. For the case of polynomial function matrices, sufficient
conditions for positivity of the matrix inequality and, therefore, for the
integral inequalities are cast as semi-definite programs. The inequalities are
used to study stability of linear partial differential equations.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
Time-Varying Input and State Delay Compensation for Uncertain Nonlinear Systems
A robust controller is developed for uncertain, second-order nonlinear
systems subject to simultaneous unknown, time-varying state delays and known,
time-varying input delays in addition to additive, sufficiently smooth
disturbances. An integral term composed of previous control values facilitates
a delay-free open-loop error system and the development of the feedback control
structure. A stability analysis based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii (LK) functionals
guarantees uniformly ultimately bounded tracking under the assumption that the
delays are bounded and slowly varying

The system under study is not only corrupted by state-dependent white noises but also disturbed by exogenous inputs. The measurement output contains randomly missing data that is modeled by a Bernoulli distributed white sequence with a known conditional probability. A filter of very general form is first designed such that the filtering process is stochastically stable and the filtering error satisfies H infin performance constraint for all admissible missing observations and nonzero exogenous disturbances under the zero-initial condition. The existence conditions of the desired filter are described in terms of a second-order nonlinear inequality. Such an inequality can be decoupled into some auxiliary ones that can be solved independently by taking special form of the Lyapunov functionals. As a consequence, a linear time-invariant filter design problem is discussed for the benefit of practical applications, and some simplified conditions are obtained. Finally, two numerical simulation examples are given to illustrate the main results of this paper
Analysis of input delay systems using integral quadratic constraint
The L2-gain computation of a linear time-invariant system with state and input delay is discussed. The input and the state delay are handled separately by using dissipation inequality involving a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and integral quadratic constraints. A conic combination of IQCs is proposed for characterizing the input delay, where the coefficients are linear time-invariant systems. The numerical example (a vehicle platoon) confirm that using this dissipativity approach a more effective method for L2-gain computation is obtained
