Reliable H∞ filtering for discrete time-delay systems with randomly occurred nonlinearities via delay-partitioning method
The official published version can be found at the link below.In this paper, the reliable H∞ filtering problem is investigated for a class of uncertain discrete time-delay systems with randomly occurred nonlinearities (RONs) and sensor failures. RONs are introduced to model a class of sector-like nonlinearities that occur in a probabilistic way according to a Bernoulli distributed white sequence with a known conditional probability. The failures of sensors are quantified by a variable varying in a given interval. The time-varying delay is unknown with given lower and upper bounds. The aim of the addressed reliable H∞ filtering problem is to design a filter such that, for all possible sensor failures, RONs, time-delays as well as admissible parameter uncertainties, the filtering error dynamics is asymptotically mean-square stable and also achieves a prescribed H∞ performance level. Sufficient conditions for the existence of such a filter are obtained by using a new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional and delay-partitioning technique. The filter gains are characterized in terms of the solution to a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). A numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design approach
Dissipative Stabilization of Linear Systems with Time-Varying General Distributed Delays (Complete Version)
New methods are developed for the stabilization of a linear system with
general time-varying distributed delays existing at the system's states, inputs
and outputs. In contrast to most existing literature where the function of
time-varying delay is continuous and bounded, we assume it to be bounded and
measurable. Furthermore, the distributed delay kernels can be any
square-integrable function over a bounded interval, where the kernels are
handled directly by using a decomposition scenario without using
approximations. By constructing a Krasovski\u{i} functional via the application
of a novel integral inequality, sufficient conditions for the existence of a
dissipative state feedback controller are derived in terms of matrix
inequalities without utilizing the existing reciprocally convex combination
lemmas. The proposed synthesis (stability) conditions, which take dissipativity
into account, can be either solved directly by a standard numerical solver of
semidefinite programming if they are convex, or reshaped into linear matrix
inequalities, or solved via a proposed iterative algorithm. To the best of our
knowledge, no existing methods can handle the synthesis problem investigated in
this paper. Finally, numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the
effectiveness of the proposed methodologies.Comment: Accepted by Automatic
New Robust Exponential Stability Criterion for Uncertain Neutral Systems with Discrete and Distributed Time-Varying Delays and Nonlinear Perturbations
We investigate the problem of robust exponential stability for uncertain neutral systems with discrete and distributed time-varying delays and nonlinear perturbations. Based on the combination of descriptor model transformation, decomposition technique of coefficient matrix, and utilization of zero equation and new Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions for robust exponential stability are obtained and formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The new stability conditions are less conservative and more general than some existing results
Relative controllability of linear difference equations
In this paper, we study the relative controllability of linear difference
equations with multiple delays in the state by using a suitable formula for the
solutions of such systems in terms of their initial conditions, their control
inputs, and some matrix-valued coefficients obtained recursively from the
matrices defining the system. Thanks to such formula, we characterize relative
controllability in time in terms of an algebraic property of the
matrix-valued coefficients, which reduces to the usual Kalman controllability
criterion in the case of a single delay. Relative controllability is studied
for solutions in the set of all functions and in the function spaces and
. We also compare the relative controllability of the system for
different delays in terms of their rational dependence structure, proving that
relative controllability for some delays implies relative controllability for
all delays that are "less rationally dependent" than the original ones, in a
sense that we make precise. Finally, we provide an upper bound on the minimal
controllability time for a system depending only on its dimension and on its
largest delay
Combined Convex Technique on Delay-Distribution-Dependent Stability for Delayed Neural Networks
Together with the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach and an improved delay-partitioning idea, one novel sufficient condition is derived to guarantee a class of delayed neural networks to be asymptotically stable in the mean-square sense, in which the probabilistic variable delay and both of delay variation limits can be measured. Through combining the reciprocal convex technique and convex technique one, the criterion is presented via LMIs and its solvability heavily depends on the sizes of both time-delay range and its variations, which can become much less conservative than those present ones by thinning the delay intervals. Finally, it can be demonstrated by four numerical examples that our idea reduces the conservatism more effectively than some earlier reported ones
Improved Delay-Dependent Stability Conditions for MIMO Networked Control Systems with Nonlinear Perturbations
This paper provides improved time delay-dependent stability criteria for multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) network control systems (NCSs) with nonlinear perturbations. Without the stability assumption on the neutral operator after the descriptor approach, the new proposed stability theory is less conservative than the existing stability condition. Theoretical proof is given in this paper to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed stability condition
STABILITY AND PERFORMANCE OF NETWORKED CONTROL SYSTEMS
Network control systems (NCSs), as one of the most active research areas, are arousing comprehensive concerns along with the rapid development of network. This dissertation mainly discusses the stability and performance of NCSs into the following two parts.
In the first part, a new approach is proposed to reduce the data transmitted in networked control systems (NCSs) via model reduction method. Up to our best knowledge, we are the first to propose this new approach in the scientific and engineering society. The "unimportant" information of system states vector is truncated by balanced truncation method (BTM) before sending to the networked controller via network based on the balance property of the remote controlled plant controllability and observability. Then, the exponential stability condition of the truncated NCSs is derived via linear matrix inequality (LMI) forms. This method of data truncation can usually reduce the time delay and further improve the performance of the NCSs. In addition, all the above results are extended to the switched NCSs.
The second part presents a new robust sliding mode control (SMC) method for general uncertain time-varying delay stochastic systems with structural uncertainties and the Brownian noise (Wiener process). The key features of the proposed method are to apply singular value decomposition (SVD) to all structural uncertainties, to introduce adjustable parameters for control design along with the SMC method, and new Lyapunov-type functional. Then, a less-conservative condition for robust stability and a new robust controller for the general uncertain stochastic systems are derived via linear matrix inequality (LMI) forms. The system states are able to reach the SMC switching surface as guaranteed in probability 1 by the proposed control rule. Furthermore, the novel Lyapunov-type functional for the uncertain stochastic systems is used to design a new robust control for the general case where the derivative of time-varying delay can be any bounded value (e.g., greater than one). It is theoretically proved that the conservatism of the proposed method is less than the previous methods.
All theoretical proofs are presented in the dissertation. The simulations validate the correctness of the theoretical results and have better performance than the existing results
