Control of switching constrained systems

We consider a particular class of hybrid systems characterized by a finite state machine and a set of discretetime linear dynamical systems, each corresponding to a state of the machine. The hybrid control problem addressed consists of maintaining the output of the systems in a given subset of the output space, independently of the state of the FSM. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given...

Time-Invariant State Feedback Control Laws for a Special Form of Underactuated Nonlinear Systems Using Linear State Bisection

Linear state bisection is introduced as a new method to find time-invariant state feedback control laws for a special form of underactuated nonlinear systems. The specialty of the systems considered is that every unactuated state should be coupled with at least two directly actuated states. The basic idea is based on bisecting actuated states and using linear combinations with adjustable parame...

Optimal Control of Uncertain Nonlinear Quadratic Systems with Constrained Inputs

This paper addresses the problem of robust and optimal control for the class of nonlinear quadratic systems subject to normbounded parametric uncertainties and disturbances, and in presence of some amplitude constraints on the control input. By using an approach based on the guaranteed cost control theory, a technique is proposed to design a state feedback controller ensuring for the closed-loo...
