Stabilization computation for a kind of uncertain switched systems using non-fragile sliding mode observer method

A non-fragile sliding mode control problem will be investigated in this article. The problem focuses on a kind of uncertain switched singular time-delay systems in which the state is not available. First, according to the designed non-fragile observer, we will construct an integral-type sliding surface, in which the estimated unmeasured state is used. Second, we synthesize a sliding mode controller. The reachability of the specified sliding surface could be proved by this sliding mode controller in a finite time. Moreover, linear matrix inequality conditions will be developed to check the exponential admissibility of the sliding mode dynamics. After that, the gain matrices designed will be given along with it. Finally, some numerical result will be provided, and the result can be used to prove the effectiveness of the method

Singular Value Decomposition-Based Method for Sliding Mode Control and Optimization of Nonlinear Neutral Systems

The sliding mode control and optimization are investigated for a class of nonlinear neutral systems with the unmatched nonlinear term. In the framework of Lyapunov stability theory, the existence conditions for the designed sliding surface and the stability bound α∗ are derived via twice transformations. The further results are to develop an efficient sliding mode control law with tuned parameters to attract the state trajectories onto the sliding surface in finite time and remain there for all the subsequent time. Finally, some comparisons are made to show the advantages of our proposed method

Filtering for discrete-time nonhomogeneous Markov jump systems with uncertainties

This paper studies the problem of robust H1 filtering for a class of uncertain discrete-time nonhomogeneous Markov jump systems. The time-varying jump transition probability matrix is described by a polytope. By Lyapunov function approach, mode-dependent and variation-dependent H1 filter is designed such that the resulting error dynamic system is stochastically stable and has a prescribed H1 performance index. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the developed techniques

A review of convex approaches for control, observation and safety of linear parameter varying and Takagi-Sugeno systems

This paper provides a review about the concept of convex systems based on Takagi-Sugeno, linear parameter varying (LPV) and quasi-LPV modeling. These paradigms are capable of hiding the nonlinearities by means of an equivalent description which uses a set of linear models interpolated by appropriately defined weighing functions. Convex systems have become very popular since they allow applying extended linear techniques based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to complex nonlinear systems. This survey aims at providing the reader with a significant overview of the existing LMI-based techniques for convex systems in the fields of control, observation and safety. Firstly, a detailed review of stability, feedback, tracking and model predictive control (MPC) convex controllers is considered. Secondly, the problem of state estimation is addressed through the design of proportional, proportional-integral, unknown input and descriptor observers. Finally, safety of convex systems is discussed by describing popular techniques for fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control (FTC).Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version

Discrete Time Systems

Discrete-Time Systems comprehend an important and broad research field. The consolidation of digital-based computational means in the present, pushes a technological tool into the field with a tremendous impact in areas like Control, Signal Processing, Communications, System Modelling and related Applications. This book attempts to give a scope in the wide area of Discrete-Time Systems. Their contents are grouped conveniently in sections according to significant areas, namely Filtering, Fixed and Adaptive Control Systems, Stability Problems and Miscellaneous Applications. We think that the contribution of the book enlarges the field of the Discrete-Time Systems with signification in the present state-of-the-art. Despite the vertiginous advance in the field, we also believe that the topics described here allow us also to look through some main tendencies in the next years in the research area
