A New Approach for Feedback Stabilization and its Application for Data-Driven Control of Polynomial Systems

Inspired by recent developments in dissipativity-based control, this work proposes new sufficient conditions for asymptotic stabilization of nonlinear systems using state feedback. We prove that this new framework is well suited for data-driven control of polynomial systems using noisy measurements, a topic that has lately attracted considerable attention. Two iterative procedures for data-based state feedback design are provided using the proposed framework, that use sum-of-squares (SOS) optimization. Typical limitations of conventional SOS methods based on alternating (D-K) procedures for controller design, such as the need to provide an initialization for a control-Lyapunov function (CLF), are overcome in this paper. Numerical examples demonstrate the applicability and the advantages of the new strategies.

Newton-series-based observer-predictor control for disturbed input-delayed discrete-time systems

This paper deals with the problem of predicting the future state of discrete-time input-delayed systems in the presence of unknown disturbances that can affect both the state and the output equations of the plant. Since the disturbance is unknown, computing an exact prediction of the future plant states is not possible. To circumvent this problem, we propose using a high-order extended Luenberger-type observer for the plant states, disturbances, and their finite difference variables, combined with a new equation for computing the prediction based on Newton's series from the calculus of finite differences. Detailed performance analysis is carried out to show that, under certain assumptions, both enhanced prediction and improved attenuation of the unknown disturbances are achieved. Linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are employed for the observer design to minimize the prediction errors. A stabilization procedure based on an iterative design algorithm is also presented for the case where the plant is affected by time-varying uncertainties. Examples from the literature illustrate the advantages of the scheme.

Dissipativity-based static output feedback design for discrete-time LTI systems with time-varying input delays

This note is concerned with the presentation of new delay-dependent dissipativity-based convex conditions (expressed in the form of linear matrix inequalities) for the design of static output feedback (SOF) stabilizing gains for open-loop unstable discrete-time systems with input time-varying delays. A modified definition of QSR-dissipativity combined with the use of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals as storage functions and the application of Finsler's Lemma lead to the gathering of non-interactive design conditions. We show that, differently from most works dealing with controller design for time-delayed systems, the developed conditions present very small conservatism compared to stability analysis conditions derived with the same strategy. Due to being a particular case of SOF with an identity output matrix, static state feedback (SSF) gains can also trivially be computed from the conditions.

Dissipativity-based $\mathcal{L}_2$ gain-scheduled static output feedback design for rational LPV systems

This paper proposes the design of gain-scheduled static output feedback controllers for the stabilization of continuous-time linear parameter-varying systems with $\mathcal{L}_2$-gain performance. The system is transformed into the form of a differential-algebraic representation which allows dealing with the broad class of systems whose matrices can present rational or polynomial dependence on the parameter. The proposed approach uses the definition of strict QSR dissipativity, Finsler's Lemma, and the notion of linear annihilators to formulate conditions expressed in the form of polytopic linear matrix inequalities for determining the gain-scheduled static output feedback control for system stabilization. One of the main advantages of the strategy is that it provides a simple design solution in a non-interactive manner. Furthermore, no restriction on the plant output matrix is imposed. Numerical examples highlight the effectiveness of the proposed method.
