Input-to-State Stabilization in -Norm for Boundary Controlled Linear Hyperbolic PDEs with Application to Quantized Control
International audienceWe consider a system of linear hyperbolic PDEs where the state at one of the boundary points is controlled using the measurements of another boundary point. For this system class, the problem of designing dynamic controllers for input-to-state stabilization in -norm with respect to measurement errors is considered. The analysis is based on constructing a Lyapunov function for the closed-loop system which leads to controller synthesis and the conditions on system dynamics required for stability. As an application of this stability notion, the problem of quantized control for hyperbolic PDEs is considered where the measurements sent to the controller are communicated using a quantizer of finite length. The presence of quantizer yields practical stability only, and the ultimate bounds on the norm of the state trajectory are also derived
Input-to-State Stability with Respect to Boundary Disturbances for a Class of Semi-linear Parabolic Equations
This paper studies the input-to-state stability (ISS) properties based on the
method of Lyapunov functionals for a class of semi-linear parabolic partial
differential equations (PDEs) with respect to boundary disturbances. In order
to avoid the appearance of time derivatives of the disturbances in ISS
estimates, some technical inequalities are first developed, which allow
directly dealing with the boundary conditions and establishing the ISS based on
the method of Lyapunov functionals. The well-posedness analysis of the
considered problem is carried out and the conditions for ISS are derived. Two
examples are used to illustrate the application of the developed result.Comment: Manuscript submitted to Automatic
A De Giorgi Iteration-based Approach for the Establishment of ISS Properties for Burgers' Equation with Boundary and In-domain Disturbances
This note addresses input-to-state stability (ISS) properties with respect to
(w.r.t.) boundary and in-domain disturbances for Burgers' equation. The
developed approach is a combination of the method of De~Giorgi iteration and
the technique of Lyapunov functionals by adequately splitting the original
problem into two subsystems. The ISS properties in -norm for Burgers'
equation have been established using this method. Moreover, as an application
of De~Giorgi iteration, ISS in -norm w.r.t. in-domain disturbances
and actuation errors in boundary feedback control for a 1- {linear}
{unstable reaction-diffusion equation} have also been established. It is the
first time that the method of De~Giorgi iteration is introduced in the ISS
theory for infinite dimensional systems, and the developed method can be
generalized for tackling some problems on multidimensional spatial domains and
to a wider class of nonlinear {partial differential equations (PDEs)Comment: This paper has been accepted for publication by IEEE Trans. on

Mini-Workshop: Entropy, Information and Control
This mini-workshop was motivated by the emerging field of networked control, which combines concepts from the disciplines of control theory, information theory and dynamical systems. Many current approaches to networked control simplify one or more of these three aspects, for instance by assuming no dynamical disturbances, or noiseless communication channels, or linear dynamics. The aim of this meeting was to approach a common understanding of the relevant results and techniques from each discipline in order to study the major, multi-disciplinary problems in networked control
A weak maximum principle-based approach for input-to-state stability analysis of nonlinear parabolic PDEs with boundary disturbances
In this paper, we introduce a weak maximum principle-based approach to
input-to-state stability (ISS) analysis for certain nonlinear partial
differential equations (PDEs) with boundary disturbances. Based on the weak
maximum principle, a classical result on the maximum estimate of solutions to
linear parabolic PDEs has been extended, which enables the ISS analysis for
certain {}{nonlinear} parabolic PDEs with boundary disturbances. To illustrate
the application of this method, we establish ISS estimates for a linear
reaction-diffusion PDE and a generalized Ginzburg-Landau equation with
{}{mixed} boundary disturbances. Compared to some existing methods, the scheme
proposed in this paper involves less intensive computations and can be applied
to the ISS analysis for a {wide} class of nonlinear PDEs with boundary
disturbances.Comment: 14 page
