A method for solving the descriptor discrete-time linear system is focused. For easily, it is converted to a standard discrete-time linear system by the definition of a derivative state feedback. Then partial eigenvalue assignment is used for obtaining state feedback and solving the standard system. In partial eigenvalue assignment, just a part of the open loop spectrum of the standard linear s...

Supervisory control and fault diagnosis of hybrid systems need to have complete information about the discrete states transitions of the underling system. From this point of view, the hybrid system should be abstracted to a Discrete Trace Transition System (DTTS) and represented by a discrete mode transition graph. In this paper an effective method is proposed for generating discrete mode trans...

This paper studies distributed control of multi-vehicle formations with angle constraints using bearingonlymeasurements. It is assumed that each vehicle can onlymeasure the local bearings of their neighbors and there are no wireless communications among the vehicles. The desired formation is a cyclic one, whose underlying information flow is described by an undirected cycle graph. We propose a ...

This paper studies the feedback control of a class of complementary-slackness hybrid mechanical systems. Roughly, the systems we study are composed of an uncontrollable part (the “object”) and a controlled one (the “robot”), linked by a unilateral constraint and an impact rule. A systematic and general control design method for this class of systems is proposed. The approach is a nontrivial ext...
