The system under study involves stochastics, state time-delay, parameter uncertainties, possible actuator failures and unknown nonlinear disturbances, which are often encountered in practice and the sources of instability. Our attention is focused on the design of linear state feedback memoryless controllers such that, for all admissible uncertainties as well as actuator failures occurring among a prespecified subset of actuators, the plant remains stochastically exponentially stable in mean square, independent of the time delay. Sufficient conditions are proposed to guarantee the desired robust reliable exponential stability despite possible actuator failures, which are in terms of the solutions to algebraic Riccati inequalities. An illustrative example is exploited to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed design approac
Further Constructions of Control-Lyapunov Functions and Stabilizing Feedbacks for Systems Satisfying the Jurdjevic-Quinn Conditions
For a broad class of nonlinear systems, we construct smooth control-Lyapunov
functions whose derivatives along the trajectories of the systems can be made
negative definite by smooth control laws that are arbitrarily small in norm. We
assume our systems satisfy appropriate generalizations of the Jurdjevic-Quinn
conditions. We also design state feedbacks of arbitrarily small norm that
render our systems integral-input-to-state stable to actuator errors.Comment: 15 pages, 0 figures, accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on

Stabilizing Stochastic Predictive Control under Bernoulli Dropouts
This article presents tractable and recursively feasible optimization-based
controllers for stochastic linear systems with bounded controls. The stochastic
noise in the plant is assumed to be additive, zero mean and fourth moment
bounded, and the control values transmitted over an erasure channel. Three
different transmission protocols are proposed having different requirements on
the storage and computational facilities available at the actuator. We optimize
a suitable stochastic cost function accounting for the effects of both the
stochastic noise and the packet dropouts over affine saturated disturbance
feedback policies. The proposed controllers ensure mean square boundedness of
the states in closed-loop for all positive values of control bounds and any
non-zero probability of successful transmission over a noisy control channel

By choosing to view this document, you agree to all provisions of the copyright laws protecting it.In this paper, the robust H∞ filtering problem is studied for a class of uncertain nonlinear networked systems with both multiple stochastic time-varying communication delays and multiple packet dropouts. A sequence of random variables, all of which are mutually independent but obey Bernoulli distribution, are introduced to account for the randomly occurred communication delays. The packet dropout phenomenon occurs in a random way and the occurrence probability for each sensor is governed by an individual random variable satisfying a certain probabilistic distribution in the interval. The discrete-time system under consideration is also subject to parameter uncertainties, state-dependent stochastic disturbances and sector-bounded nonlinearities. We aim to design a linear full-order filter such that the estimation error converges to zero exponentially in the mean square while the disturbance rejection attenuation is constrained to a give level by means of the H∞ performance index. Intensive stochastic analysis is carried out to obtain sufficient conditions for ensuring the exponential stability as well as prescribed H∞ performance for the overall filtering error dynamics, in the presence of random delays, random dropouts, nonlinearities, and the parameter uncertainties. These conditions are characterized in terms of the feasibility of a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), and then the explicit expression is given for the desired filter parameters. Simulation results are employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed filter design technique in this paper.This work was supported in part by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the U.K. under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Royal Society of the U.K., the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany, National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant 60825303, 60834003, 973 Project under Grant 2009CB320600, Fok Ying Tung Education Foundation under Grant 111064, and the Youth Science Fund of Heilongjiang Province under Grant QC2009C63
Nonlinear discrete-time systems with delayed control: a reduction
In this work, the notion of reduction is introduced for discrete-time nonlinear input-delayed systems. The retarded dynamics is reduced to a new system which is free of delays and equivalent (in terms of stabilizability) to the original one. Different stabilizing strategies are proposed over the reduced model. Connections with existing predictor-based methods are discussed. The methodology is also worked out over particular classes of time-delay systems as sampled-data dynamics affected by an entire input delay
