Controller design for systems subject to multi-layer nested saturation via event-triggered scheme

Abstract

The design of an event-triggered controller to stabilize the continuous-time systems subject to multi-layer nested saturation is presented in this paper. As a complex nonlinearity, the nested saturation exists in a large number of systems, which may degrade the performance of the system. The sufficient condition for stabilization of the multi-layer saturated system is given by employing event-triggered control, which could reduce communication load of the system. The lower bound of the inter-event time interval is calculated to avoid the Zeno behavior. The domain of attraction for the system is estimated, which is determined by solving an optimization problem. The main advantage of the proposed approach lies in the extensive applicability for different layers of the nested saturation. In the final section, simulation and pratical examples are given to demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed results.

Stabilization of networked switched affine systems with event-triggered strategy

“…The event-triggered control, as a new control paradigm, has drawn increasing attention in recent years (see Yang et al (2016); Xing and Deng (2019); Zhou et al (2020); Li H et al (2020)). The event-triggered control design for switched system has been investigated in Xiao et al (2019).…”
