Model-based event-triggered control for linear plant with threshold variable and model states

Abstract

SUMMARYThis paper studies the robustness of model-based event-triggered control systems with respect to the differences between the plant and model matrices. Two types of event conditions, which involve an additional threshold variable and the norm of model states, are investigated, respectively. The tunable parameters in both the event conditions are designed according to the differences between the plant and model matrices. Also, the uncertainties in the plant matrices are considered, and the asymptotic stability can be guaranteed robustly. Moreover, the relationship between the tunable parameters and the model matrices is revealed. Namely, on the one hand, there exists a range of the tunable parameters such that the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable with model matrices in any compact set. On the other hand, if the differences between the plant and model matrices are small enough, the tunable parameters can be set arbitrarily large. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the efficiency and feasibility of the obtained results. Copyright

Observer‐based event and self‐triggered adaptive output feedback control of robotic manipulators

“…In the model-based event-triggered control framework, the feedback state evolves along the model during the non-triggered period except when the condition is satisfied, then the model state is assigned values of current measured and observed states. As such, this state switching is expressed as the following form: 29,39,40…”

“…[38][39][40] In this scheme, the model information of the plant is sufficiently applied to approximate the desired evolution of plant state during the time flow, and by this way, the transmitted signal to the controller is kept updating such that the dispensable error accumulation during open-loop operation could be reduced. [38][39][40] Recently, developing the model-based ETCs on the linear and strict feedback nonlinear systems have been reported in References 24 and 41-43. Specially, Gao et al have combined backstepping method with model-based triggered control to solve the tracking problem of the uncertain robot, and they also designed a discrete dynamic triggered mechanism to improve the control accuracy under limited communication.…”

Switching event‐triggering mechanisms for integral input‐to‐state stable nonlinear systems

“…Especially, it is not necessary to have the exact model f (x) = f (x, k(x m (t)), 0, 0), although such a selection has the potential to improve inter-event times k ∶= t k+1 − t k . 22 When f is a null function, the model-based manner in ( 7) is reduced to the zero-order-hold manner.…”

“…Finally, we consider the case of V(t k ) ≤ E M , which leads to ‖x(t k )‖ ≤ −1 (E M ). From ( 21) and ( 22), we only need to provide the lower bound of t a k+1 in (22). Due to the boundedness of x(t), e(t) and d(t), there exists a constant M x > 0 such that…”

A novel event‐triggered extended state observer for networked control systems subjected to external disturbances

“…1,5 To avoid possible network congestions, the event-triggered scheme can be used, where the measurement signals are not updated periodically but only when some events occur. [6][7][8] Up to date, some initial results have been reported in the literature concerning the NCSs with event-triggered sampling schemes (see other works [9][10][11] and the references therein). For instance, the event-triggered mechanism with state-independent threshold has been discussed to update the control input signals for multiagent systems in the work of Ding et al 6 Two event-based robust sampled-data model predictive control strategies have been proposed for continuous-time systems with disturbances.…”
