摘要：A structured preconditioned conjugate gradient (PCG) based solver is developed for implementing the Newton updates in second-order methods for a class of constrained network optimal control problems. Of specific interest are problems with discrete-time dynamics arising from the path-graph interconnection of N heterogeneous subsystems. The arithmetic complexity of each PCG step is O(NT), where T is the length of the time horizon. The proposed preconditioning involves a fixed number of block Jac...

摘要：This article introduces a class of time-varying controllers for Euler-Lagrange systems such that the convergence occurs at an arbitrary finite time, independently of initial conditions, and free of chattering. The proposed controller is based on a mapping technique and is designed in two steps: First, a conventional (obstacle avoidance) asymptotically stable controller is specified for the nominal system; then, by a simple substitution, a prescribed-time (obstacle avoidance) controller is achi...

摘要：A finite-time observer for a class of linear time-varying systems with bounded unknown inputs is presented in this note. The design of the observer exploits structural properties of the system and, through a linear operator, allows applying the robust exact differentiator in a block form without requiring additional stabilizing terms. The proposed observer provides an exact estimate of the states after a finite transient time despite the possible instability of the system and the effects of bo...

摘要：This article considers the problem of bilinearization and optimal control of a control-affine nonlinear system by projecting the system dynamics onto the Koopman eigenspace. Although there are linearization techniques like Carleman linearization for embedding a finite-dimensional nonlinear system into an infinite-dimensional space, they depend on the analytic property of the vector fields and work only on polynomial space. The proposed method utilizes the Koopman canonical transform, specifica...

摘要：Set-membership filter (SMF) has been extensively studied for state estimation in the presence of bounded noises with unknown statistics. Since it was first introduced in the 1960s, the studies on SMF have used the set-based description as its mathematical framework. One important issue that has been overlooked is the optimality of SMF. In this article, we put forward a new mathematical framework for SMF using concepts of uncertain variables. We first establish two basic properties of uncertain...

摘要：We investigate state estimation and safe controller synthesis for networked discrete-event systems (DESs), where supervisors send control decisions to plants via communication channels subject to communication delays. Previous works on state estimation of networked DES are based on the open-loop system without utilizing the knowledge of the control policy. In this article, we propose a new approach for online estimation and control of networked DES with control delays. We first propose a new s...

摘要：This article investigates a parameterization of all output-rectifying retrofit controllers for distributed design of a structured controller. It has been discovered that all retrofit controllers can be characterized as a constrained Youla parameterization, which is difficult to solve analytically. For synthesis, a tractable and insightful class of retrofit controllers, referred to as output-rectifying retrofit controllers, has been introduced. An unconstrained parameterization of all output-re...

摘要：We consider a version of the pole placement problem for one-sided linear discrete time-varying linear systems. Our purpose is to prove that uniform complete controllability is equivalent to possibility of arbitrary assignment of the dichotomy spectrum.

摘要：The problem of effective use of phasor measurement units (PMUs) to enhance power systems awareness and security is a topic of key interest. The central question to solve is how to use these new measurements to reconstruct the state of the system. In this article, we provide the first solution to the problem of (globally convergent) state estimation of multimachine power systems equipped with PMUs and described by the fourth-order flux-decay model. This article is a significant extension of our...

摘要：This article studies the multiagent control problem for affine, rigid, and translational formation, with the aim of developing a unified distributed control strategy for global and finite-time convergence. Global stabilization of rigid formation in arbitrary dimensional spaces still remains open and challenging. This article provides a general solution to this open problem based on the sliding mode control idea. The control law design consists of two parts: the main control force regulates the...
