Robust Fault Detection of Switched Linear Systems with State Delays
This correspondence deals with the problem of robust fault detection for discrete-time switched systems with state delays under an arbitrary switching signal. The fault detection filter is used as the residual generator, in which the filter parameters are dependent on the system mode. Attention is focused on designing the robust fault detection filter such that, for unknown inputs, control inputs, and model uncertainties, the estimation error between the residuals and faults is minimized. The problem of robust fault detection is converted into an H infin-filtering problem. By a switched Lyapunov functional approach, a sufficient condition for the solvability of this problem is established in terms of linear matrix inequalities. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method
H∞ controller design for networked predictive control systems based on the average dwell-time approach
This brief focuses on the problem of H∞ control for a class of networked control systems with time-varying delay in both forward and backward channels. Based on the average dwell-time method, a novel delay-compensation strategy is proposed by appropriately assigning the subsystem or designing the switching signals. Combined with this strategy, an improved predictive controller design approach in which the controller gain varies with the delay is presented to guarantee that the closed-loop system is exponentially stable with an H∞-norm bound for a class of switching signal in terms of nonlinear matrix inequalities. Furthermore, an iterative algorithm is presented to solve these nonlinear matrix inequalities to obtain a suboptimal minimum disturbance attenuation level. A numerical example illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed method
Robust output stabilization: improving performance via supervisory control
We analyze robust stability, in an input-output sense, of switched stable
systems. The primary goal (and contribution) of this paper is to design
switching strategies to guarantee that input-output stable systems remain so
under switching. We propose two types of {\em supervisors}: dwell-time and
hysteresis based. While our results are stated as tools of analysis they serve
a clear purpose in design: to improve performance. In that respect, we
illustrate the utility of our findings by concisely addressing a problem of
observer design for Lur'e-type systems; in particular, we design a hybrid
observer that ensures ``fast'' convergence with ``low'' overshoots. As a second
application of our main results we use hybrid control in the context of
synchronization of chaotic oscillators with the goal of reducing control
effort; an originality of the hybrid control in this context with respect to
other contributions in the area is that it exploits the structure and chaotic
behavior (boundedness of solutions) of Lorenz oscillators.Comment: Short version submitted to IEEE TA
