摘要：This article discusses the remote state estimation over unreliable links, where the packet dropouts occur from the sensor side to the filter, for discrete-time systems with both bounded-power disturbances and white Gaussian noises. A cascaded estimation scheme with enhanced robustness is proposed, driven by the residual signal related to the modeling mismatch. The estimation gains are characterized by two modified algebraic Riccati equations (MAREs), together with a complete and rigorous stabi...

摘要：This article develops the sliding mode control (SMC) strategy for linear impulsive systems with matched disturbances. Such systems describe dynamical systems that evolve according to continuous process most of the time with matched disturbances, but instantaneously exhibit discontinuities, i.e., impulsive disturbances. A suitable sliding surface function is proposed and the resulting sliding mode dynamics are a class of linear impulsive systems. Some sufficient conditions coupled with impulse ...

摘要：This article is concerned with minimizing the average of is cost functions over a network, in which agents may communicate and exchange information with each other. We consider the setting where only noisy gradient information is available. To solve the problem, we study the distributed stochastic gradient descent (DSGD) method and perform a nonasymptotic convergence analysis. For strongly convex and smooth objective functions, in expectation, DSGD asymptotically achieves the optimal network-i...

摘要：In this article, the finite-time and fixed-time attractiveness problems are investigated for nonlinear impulsive systems. The aim of the proposed problems is to establish some general Lyapunov theorems and settling-time estimates for finite-time and fixed-time attractiveness of nonlinear impulsive systems by analysis technics. Moreover, some comparisons with the existing results are also given. The classical finite-time and fixed-time convergence theorems for nonlinear impulse-free systems are...

摘要：We propose a state estimation methodology using a network of distributed observers. We consider a scenario in which the local measurement at each node may not guarantee the system's observability. In contrast, the ensemble of all the measurements does ensure that the observability property holds. As a result, we design a network of observers such that the estimated state vector computed by each observer converges to the system's state vector by using the local measurement and the communicated ...

摘要：When multiple agents need to perform tasks that need cooperation, communication is necessary for coordination and also to assess completion. In this case, trust needs to be guaranteed, so agents know if others are following a common strategy. If communication is explicit, other agents, including agents that are not involved directly in the mission, can forge information and lead agents to believe that they are behaving according to the mission plan. Several methods have been proposed in the li...

摘要：This technical note investigates the positive consensus problem of multiagent systems with directed communication topologies, where all the agents have identical continuous-time positive linear dynamics. Existing works of such a problem mainly focus on the case, where networked communication topologies are of either undirected and incomplete graphs, or strongly connected directed graphs. In contrast to them, we study this problem in which the communication topologies of the multiagent system a...

摘要：We approach the problem of stabilizing a dynamical system while optimizing a cost and satisfying safety constraints and control limitations. For (nonlinear) affine control systems and quadratic costs, it has been shown that control barrier functions (CBFs) guaranteeing safety and control Lyapunov functions (CLFs) enforcing convergence can be used to (conservatively) reduce the optimal control problem to a sequence of quadratic programs (QPs). Existing works in this category have two main limit...

摘要：In this article, we first show that the main results claimed in the paper by Bikas and Rovithakis (2021) involve some errors as the selection conditions for the design parameters are not sufficient to ensure the boundedness of all the closed-loop signals, then we provide the corresponding corrections under the same controller, so that the underlying quantized control problem can be tackled.

摘要：This article addresses the problem of transient performance improvement in adaptive backstepping design. A new modular design with a high-order tuner providing complete compensation of the adjustable parameters' time variations is proposed. The L-infinity performance bound for the state error is derived and verifies a better transient performance of the proposed controller compared to the known ones designed based on tuning functions and modular approach with first-order tuners.
