Necessary and sufficient condition for stabilizability of discrete-time linear switched systems: A set-theory approach (original) (raw)

The selected problems of controllability of discrete-time switched linear systems with constrained switching rule

Bulletin of The Polish Academy of Sciences-technical Sciences, 2015

In this paper the controllability problem for discrete-time linear switched systems is considered. The main goal is to find a control signal that steers any initial state to a given final state independently of the switching signal. In the paper, it is assumed that there are some constraints posed on the switching signal. Moreover, we present a necessary and sufficient conditions of some kinds of controllability. Three types of controllability, namely: from zero initial state to any final state, from any initial state to zero final state and from any initial state to any final state are considered. Finally, three illustrative examples are shown.

Robust stability and stabilization of uncertain switched discrete-time systems

Advances in Difference Equations, 2012

This paper is concerned with the robust stability and stabilization for a class of switched discrete-time systems with state parameter uncertainty. Firstly, a new matrix inequality considering uncertainties is introduced and proved. By means of it, a novel sufficient condition for robust stability and stabilization of a class of uncertain switched discrete-time systems is presented. Furthermore, based on the result obtained, the switching law is designed and has been performed well, and some sufficient conditions of robust stability and stabilization have been derived for the uncertain switched discrete-time systems using the Lyapunov stability theorem, block matrix method, and inequality technology. Finally, some examples are exploited to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.

Controllability of Discrete-Time Linear Switched Systems with Constrains on Switching Signal

Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2015

In this paper we consider the controllability problem for discrete-time linear switched systems. The problem consists of finding a control signal that steers any initial condition to a given final state regardless of the switching signal. In the paper a necessary and sufficient conditions for this type of controllability are presented. Moreover, we consider problems of controllability from zero initial condition and to zero final state.

Stability and Stabilizability of Switched Linear Systems: A Survey of Recent Results

IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2009

During the past several years, there have been increasing research activities in the field of stability analysis and switching stabilization for switched systems. This paper aims to briefly survey recent results in this field. First, the stability analysis for switched systems is reviewed. We focus on the stability analysis for switched linear systems under arbitrary switching, and we highlight necessary and sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability. After a brief review of the stability analysis under restricted switching and the multiple Lyapunov function theory, the switching stabilization problem is studied, and a variety of switching stabilization methods found in the literature are outlined. Then the switching stabilizability problem is investigated, that is under what condition it is possible to stabilize a switched system by properly designing switching control laws. Note that the switching stabilizability problem has been one of the most elusive problems in the switched systems literature. A necessary and sufficient condition for asymptotic stabilizability of switched linear systems is described here.

Stabilization of Continuous-time and Discrete-time Switched Systems : A Review *

2017

Stability problem for a class of linear continuous time and discrete time systems is well understood since long. This analysis has also been extended to switched linear systems with continuous and discrete descriptions. For such cases, arbitrary switching problem is addressed by constructing common quadratic and non-quadratic Lyapunov function. Moreover, keeping in view the invertible time delays in dynamical systems due to internal factors or external environment, study of switched systems with delays has become quite challenging. The present work, highlights the state of art review of switched systems and underlying methodologies to ensure stabilization of such system with individual systems having stable or unstable dynamics. Further, current status and future directions of possible scope and open challenges in this area are also highlighted for completeness.

Static switched output feedback stabilization for linear discrete-time switched systems

This paper focuses on the problem of switched static output feedback (SOF) control for discrete-time switched linear systems under arbitrary switching laws. The considered class of systems is characterized by a particular structure of system matrices. Our principle idea is addressed in the derivation of new sufficient linear matrix inequalities conditions for the synthesis of a switched controller for a particular class of switched systems. The adopted methodology is based on the using of a special congruence transformation and a switched quadratic Lyapunov function. We propose important sufficient LMI conditions for SOF stabilization in the general case which guarantee the switchedquadratically stability of the closed-loop system. The various conditions are given through a family of LMI (linear matrix inequalities) parameterized by a scalar variable which offers an additional degree of freedom, enabling, at the expense of a relatively small degree of complexity in the numerical treatment (one line search), to provide better results compared with previous ones in the literature. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed conditions.

Stabilization and performance analysis for a class of switched systems

2004

This paper investigates stability and control design problems with performance analysis for discrete-time switched linear systems. The switched Lyapunov function method is combined with Finsler's Lemma to generate various tests in the enlarged space containing both the state and its time difference, allowing extra degree of freedom for stability analysis and control design. Two performance measures being considered are the decay rate and the inputoutput performance. A new LMI based stability test for the existence of switched Lyapunov functions is first developed. If a switched Lyapunov function exists, asymptotic stability of the switched system also implies its exponential stability. An LMI optimization problem is then formulated to find a bound on the decay rate of the system. To attain the bound, state feedback control gains are designed. Using the same framework and the well-known S-procedure, a generalized sufficient LMI condition is obtained which guarantees a γperformance of the closed-loop switched systems subject to input disturbances.

Lyapunov characterizations of input-to-state stability for discrete-time switched systems via finite-step Lyapunov functions

IFAC-PapersOnLine, 2020

This paper addresses Lyapunov characterizations of input-to-state stability for nonlinear switched discrete-time systems via finite-step Lyapunov functions with respect to closed sets. The use of finite-step Lyapunov functions permits not-necessarily input-to-state stable systems in the systems family, while input-to-state stability of the resulting switched system is ensured. The result is generally presented for systems under arbitrary switching. It additionally covers the case of constrained switchings. We illustrate the effectiveness of our results by application to networked control systems with periodic scheduling policies under a priori known and dwell time-based switching mechanism.

A method for determining stabilizeability of a class of switched systems

2007

In this paper, the problem of finding a stabilizing feedback controller for single input single output switched systems of order two is addressed. To ensure stability under arbitrary switching, the existence of a common Lyapunov function (CLF) needs to be established. A method for establishing the existence of CLFs, given suitable feedback controllers, is presented. The method presented here is computationally less demanding compared to those that depend on linear matrix inequalities solvers.
