This paper investigates the problem of H∞ filtering for class discrete-time Lipschitz nonlinear singular systems with measurement quantization. Assume that the system measurement output is quantized by a static, memoryless, and logarithmic quantizer before it is transmitted to the filter, while the quantizer errors can be treated as sector-bound uncertainties. The attention of this paper is focused on the design of a nonlinear quantized H∞ filter to mitigate quantization effects and ensure that the filtering error system is admissible (asymptotically stable, regular, and causal), while having a unique solution with a prescribed H∞ noise attenuation level. By introducing some slack variables and using the Lyapunov stability theory, some sufficient conditions for the existence of the nonlinear quantized H∞ filter are expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, a numerical example is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed quantized filter design method
On Stability and Stabilization of Hybrid Systems
The thesis addresses the stability, input-to-state stability (ISS), and stabilization problems for deterministic and stochastic hybrid systems with and without time delay. The stabilization problem is achieved by reliable, state feedback controllers, i.e., controllers experience possible faulty in actuators and/or sensors. The contribution of this thesis is presented in three main parts.
Firstly, a class of switched systems with time-varying norm-bounded parametric uncertainties in the system states and an external time-varying, bounded input is addressed. The problems of ISS and stabilization by a robust reliable control are established by using multiple Lyapunov function technique along with the average dwell-time approach. Then, these results are further extended to include time delay in the system states, and delay systems subject to impulsive effects. In the latter two results, Razumikhin technique in which Lyapunov function, but not functional, is used to investigate the qualitative properties.
Secondly, the problem of designing a decentralized, robust reliable control for deterministic impulsive large-scale systems with admissible uncertainties in the system states to guarantee exponential stability is investigated. Then, reliable observers are also considered to estimate the states of the same system. Furthermore, a time-delayed large-scale impulsive system undergoing stochastic noise is addressed and the problems of stability and stabilization are investigated. The stabilization is achieved by two approaches, namely a set of decentralized reliable controllers, and impulses.
Thirdly, a class of switched singularly perturbed systems (or systems with different time scales) is also considered. Due to the dominant behaviour of the slow subsystem, the stabilization of the full system is achieved through the slow subsystem. This approach results in reducing some unnecessary sufficient conditions on the fast subsystem. In fact, the singular system is viewed as a large-scale system that is decomposed into isolated, low order subsystems, slow and fast, and the rest is treated as interconnection. Multiple Lyapunov functions and average dwell-time switching signal approach are used to establish the stability and stabilization. Moreover, switched singularly perturbed systems with time-delay in the slow system are considered

Robust piecewise adaptive control for an uncertain semilinear parabolic distributed parameter systems
In this study, we focus on designing a robust piecewise adaptive controller to globally asymptotically stabilize a semilinear parabolic distributed parameter systems (DPSs) with external disturbance, whose nonlinearities are bounded by unknown functions. Firstly, a robust piecewise adaptive control is designed against the unknown nonlinearity and the external disturbance. Then, by constructing an appropriate Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional candidate (LKFC) and using the Wiritinger’s inequality and a variant of the Agmon’s inequality, it is shown that the proposed robust piecewise adaptive controller not only ensures the globally asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system, but also guarantees a given performance. Finally, two simulation examples are given to verify the validity of the design method
Finite-time disturbance reconstruction and robust fractional-order controller design for hybrid port-Hamiltonian dynamics of biped robots
In this paper, disturbance reconstruction and robust trajectory tracking
control of biped robots with hybrid dynamics in the port-Hamiltonian form is
investigated. A new type of Hamiltonian function is introduced, which ensures
the finite-time stability of the closed-loop system. The proposed control
system consists of two loops: an inner and an outer loop. A fractional
proportional-integral-derivative filter is used to achieve finite-time
convergence for position tracking errors at the outer loop. A fractional-order
sliding mode controller acts as a centralized controller at the inner-loop,
ensuring the finite-time stability of the velocity tracking error. In this
loop, the undesired effects of unknown external disturbance and parameter
uncertainties are compensated using estimators. Two disturbance estimators are
envisioned. The former is designed using fractional calculus. The latter is an
adaptive estimator, and it is constructed using the general dynamic of biped
robots. Stability analysis shows that the closed-loop system is finite-time
stable in both contact-less and impact phases. Simulation studies on two types
of biped robots (i.e., two-link walker and RABBIT biped robot) demonstrate the
proposed controller's tracking performance and disturbance rejection
