Finite‐time control for LPV systems with parameter‐varying time delays and exogenous disturbances

Abstract

Summary In this paper, we consider the stability analysis and control synthesis of finite‐time boundedness problems for linear parameter‐varying (LPV) systems subject to parameter‐varying time delays and external disturbances. First, the concepts of uniform finite‐time stability and uniform finite‐time boundedness are introduced to LPV systems. Then, sufficient conditions, which guarantee LPV systems with parameter‐varying time delays finite‐time bounded, are presented by using parameter‐dependent Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals and free‐weight matrix technologies. Moreover, on the basis of the results on the uniform finite‐time boundedness, the parameter‐dependent state feedback controllers are designed to finite‐time stabilize LPV systems. Both analysis and synthesis conditions are delay‐dependent, and they are formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities by using efficient interior‐point algorithms. Finally, results obtained in simulation demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Finite–Time Output Stability of Impulse Switching System With Norm–Bounded State Constraint

“…The conditions for a linear time-invariant system satisfying the FTS are discussed in [3]. The finite-time stability and boundedness problems of time-varying systems are discussed in [12] and [13], and controller design and solution methods are derived. Later, the FTB theory spreads to uncertain systems [14], discrete-time systems [15], [16], and impulsive systems [17]- [20].…”

Non‐fragile finite‐time dissipative piecewise control for time‐varying system with time‐varying delay

“…In recent years, plenty of results regarding to FTS/FTB of time‐delay systems have arisen. For linear parameter‐varying systems with parameter‐varying time delays and external disturbances, finite‐time boundedness problems were addressed in [21]. For neural networks with time‐varying delay, the problem of finite‐time non‐fragile passivity control was studied in [22].…”

Fault tolerant control with disturbance estimator for a class of linear parameter varying systems subject to time-varying fault

“…Sliding-mode control (SMC) is a powerful nonlinear control technique that has been intensively developed during last 50 years (Chen and Chen, 2010; Yang et al, 2013). Meanwhile, there has been an explosion of interest in exploiting sliding-mode techniques for FTC (Hao et al, 2017; Hu et al, 2017; Li et al, 2016; Van et al, 2016). The FTC problem of nonlinearly chaotic systems via adaptive slide-mode control is investigated.…”
