The Lyapunov-like functional has four striking characters compared to usual ones. First, it is time-dependent. Second, it may be discontinuous. Third, not every term of it is required to be positive definite. Fourth, the Lyapunov functional includes not only the state and the sampled state but also the integral of the state. By using a recently reported inequality to estimate the derivative of this Lyapunov functional, a sampled-interval-dependent stability criterion with reduced conservatism is obtained. The stability criterion is further extended to sampled-data systems with polytopic uncertainties. Finally, three examples are given to illustrate the reduced conservatism of the stability criteria.展开更多

To solve the problem, we first construct a linear sampled-data observer and controller. Then, a scaling gain is introduced into the proposed observer and controller. Finally, we use the sampled-data output feedback domination approach to find the explicit formula for choosing the scaling gain and the sampling period which renders the closed-loop system globally asymptotically stable. A simulation example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design procedure.展开更多

Asymptotic stability, mean-square stability, and stochastic stability are considered. For networked discrete-time linear systems, the packet loss period is assumed to be a finite-state Markov chain. We establish that the mean-square stability of a related discrete-time system which evolves in random time implies the mean-square stability of the system in deterministic time by using the equivalence of stability properties of Markovian jump linear systems in random time. We also establish the equivalence of asymptotic stability for the systems in deterministic discrete time and in random time. For networked sampled-data systems, a binary Markov chain is used to characterize the packet loss phenomenon of the network. In this case, the packet loss period between two transmission instants is driven by an identically independently distributed sequence assuming any positive values. Two approaches, namely the Markov jump linear system approach and randomly sampled system approach, are introduced. Based on the stability results derived, we present methods for stabilization of networked sampled-data systems in terms of matrix inequalities. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the design methods of stabilizing controllers.展开更多

We show that if the unknown nonlinear function has a linear growth rate with its 'slope' (denoted by L) being a measure of the 'size' of uncertainty, then the sampling rate should not exceed 1/L multiplied by a constant (≈ 7.53) for the system to be globally stabilizable by the sampled-data feedback. If, however, the unknown nonlinear function has a growth rate faster than linear, and if the system is disturbed by noises modeled as the standard Brownian motion, then an example is given, showing that the corresponding sampled-data system is not stabilizable by the sampled-data feedback in general, no matter how fast the sampling rate is.展开更多

文摘This paper is concerned with the stability analysis and stabilization of networked discrete-time and sampled-data linear systems with random packet losses. Asymptotic stability, mean-square stability, and stochastic stability are considered. For networked discrete-time linear systems, the packet loss period is assumed to be a finite-state Markov chain. We establish that the mean-square stability of a related discrete-time system which evolves in random time implies the mean-square stability of the system in deterministic time by using the equivalence of stability properties of Markovian jump linear systems in random time. We also establish the equivalence of asymptotic stability for the systems in deterministic discrete time and in random time. For networked sampled-data systems, a binary Markov chain is used to characterize the packet loss phenomenon of the network. In this case, the packet loss period between two transmission instants is driven by an identically independently distributed sequence assuming any positive values. Two approaches, namely the Markov jump linear system approach and randomly sampled system approach, are introduced. Based on the stability results derived, we present methods for stabilization of networked sampled-data systems in terms of matrix inequalities. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the design methods of stabilizing controllers.
