摘要：This article develops a model predictive control (MPC) framework to co-optimize switching sequences and control inputs for switched linear systems subject to persistent dwell-time (PDT) constraints. As a class of time constraints, PDT has been demonstrated to be more general and flexible than others like dwell-time or average dwell-time. Although time constraints are widely used in applications for safety and stability concerns, MPC of switched systems with time constraints often formulates a ...

摘要：Robust Nash equilibrium (NE) seeking for a constrained aggregative game is explored. Our setting has the following three features: 1) local feasibility sets are considered; 2) each player has first-order dynamics that are influenced by unknown time-varying disturbances and unmodeled terms; 3) the communication topology among players may be influenced by attacks. The existence of unknown disturbances results in the trajectories of the players going out of the feasible sets even though the initi...

摘要：The growing complexity of modern engineering systems necessitates a method for design and analysis that is inherently modular. Methods based on using contracts for system design have successfully tackled this issue for a variety of system classes, but mostly in the context of discrete software systems. Motivated by this, we present assume-guarantee contracts for continuous linear dynamical systems with inputs and outputs. Such contracts serve as system specifications through two aspects. The a...

摘要：In this article, we study the leader-following problem for linear stochastic multiagent systems with uniform and constant communication delays on directed or undirected graphs. We consider both the state feedback and output feedback solutions. In the latter case, the agents can be a set of heterogeneous linear systems. By resorting to a new approach based on the scalar Lambert equation, we obtain a constructive design with less conservative closed-form delay bounds. In particular, it is possib...

摘要：Classical sufficient conditions for ensuring the robust stability of a dynamical system in feedback with a nonlinearity include passivity, small gain, circle, and conicity theorems. In this article, we present a generalized version of these results for arbitrary semi-inner product spaces. Our result is purely algebraic, and holds even when the conventional discrete or continuous-time causal dynamical systems are replaced by general nonlinear relations, where there need not exist a notion of ti...

摘要：In this article, we model a hybrid system by using a hybrid machine consisting of an automaton and a set of continuous-variable subsystems. We investigate the problem of determining the (current) discrete state of the hybrid system. Extending the terminologies in discrete-event systems, a hybrid system is detectable if its discrete state can be uniquely determined. We derive conditions for a hybrid system to be detectable. If a hybrid system is detectable, we determine its current discrete sta...

摘要：In this article, we provide a system-theoretic treatment of certain continuous-time homogeneous polynomial dynamical systems (HPDS) via tensor algebra. In particular, if a system of homogeneous polynomial differential equations can be represented by an orthogonally decomposable (odeco) tensor, we can construct its explicit solution by exploiting tensor Z-eigenvalues and Z-eigenvectors. We refer to such HPDS as odeco HPDS. By utilizing the form of the explicit solution, we are able to discuss t...

摘要：An iterative proportional-integral interval estimation strategy for linear discrete-time systems is investigated in this article. A sequence iterative proportional-integral observer is built on system output and unknown disturbance iterative estimation. With the help of a structure separation technique, a sufficient condition in terms of linear matrix inequality is proposed to make the observer error system be asymptotically stable. The boundary reachability of the observer error system is ana...

摘要：This article is devoted to the distributed continuous-time optimization problems with time-varying objective functions and time-varying constraints. Different from most studied distributed optimization problems with time-invariant objective functions and constraints, the optimal solutions in this article are time varying and form a trajectory. First, for the case where there exist only time-varying nonlinear inequality constraints, we present a distributed control algorithm that consists of a ...

摘要：This article is concerned with data-driven analysis of discrete-time systems under aperiodic sampling, and in particular with a data-driven estimation of the maximum sampling interval (MSI). The MSI is relevant for the analysis of and controller design for cyber-physical, embedded and networked systems, since it gives a limit on the time span between sampling instants such that stability is guaranteed. We propose tools to compute the MSI for a given controller and to design a controller with a...
