Linear Perturbation Theory for Structured Matrix Pencils Arising in Control Theory (original) (raw)

Eigenvalue characterization of some structured matrix pencils under linear perturbation

˜The œelectronic journal of linear algebra, 2024

We study the effect of linear perturbations on three families of matrix pencils. The matrix pairs of the first two families are Hermitian/skew-Hermitian with special 3 × 3 block cases appeared in continuous-time control, and the matrix pairs of the third family are special 3 × 3 non-Hermitian block matrices appeared in discrete-time control. For the first family of matrix pencils and more general cases of the second family of matrix pencils, based on the properties of the involved matrices, we obtain some upper or lower bounds on the set of eigenvalues of linearly perturbed matrix pencils which are on the imaginary axis. Studying a special 3 × 3 block matrix pencil, which is associated with continuous-time control, leads us to some linear perturbation that do not preserve (properly) the structure of the matrices. This, in turn, leads to a numerical technique for finding the nearest Hermitian/skew-Hermitian matrix pencil which can satisfy conditions such that, for some nonzero real perturbation parameter, some or all of its eigenvalues lie on the imaginary axis. We also study the linearly perturbed matrix pencils, associated with discrete-time control, using an one-to-one equivalence between the matrix pencil of continuous-time problem and the matrix pencil of discrete-time problem.

Perturbation Analysis of Linear Control Problems

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1987

In this paper we present a non-local perturbation analysis of the basic problems arising in the analysis and design of linear control systems: 1° Determination of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix; 2° Transformation of linear systems into canonical form; 3° Computation of a matrix exponential; 4° Pole assignment synthesis of linear systems; 5° solution of Riccati, Sylvester and Lyapunov continuous and discrete algebraic matrix equations. Most of the obtained perturbation bounds are unimprovable.

Reduction to Versal Deformations of Matrix Pencils and Matrix Pairs with Application to Control Theory

SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications, 2003

Matrix pencils under the strict equivalence and matrix pairs under the state feedback equivalence are considered. It is known that a matrix pencil (or a matrix pair) smoothly dependent on parameters can be reduced locally to a special typically more simple form, called the versal deformation, by a smooth change of parameters and a strict equivalence (or feedback equivalence) transformation. We suggest an explicit recurrent procedure for finding the change of parameters and equivalence transformation in the reduction of a given family of matrix pencils (or matrix pairs) to the versal deformation. As an application, this procedure is applied to the analysis of the uncontrollability set in the space of parameters for a one-input linear dynamical system. Explicit formulae for a tangent plane to the uncontrollability set at its regular point and the perturbation of the uncontrollable mode are derived. A physical example is given and studied in detail.

On the Optimal Control Computation of Linear Systems

Journal of the Indonesian Mathematical Society, 2012

In this paper, we consider a numerical method for designing optimal control on Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) problem. In the optimal control design process through Pontryagin Maximum Principle (PMP), we obtain a system of differential equations in state and costate variables. This system lacks of initial condition on the adjoint variables, and this situation creates classic difficulty for solving optimal control problems. This paper proposes a constructive method to approximate the initial condition of the adjoint system.

Perturbation of linear control systems

We study the variation of the controllability indices and the Jordan structure of a pair of matrices (A, I?), under small perturbations.
