On Strict Homogeneous Lyapunov Function for Generalized Homogeneous PI Controller

This paper investigates a generalized homogeneous PI (Proportional-Integral) control for a linear plant. A Lyapunov function for analysis of the closed-loop system is designed. For negative homogeneity degree, the obtained Lyapunov function becomes a strict Lyapunov function allowing an advanced analysis to be provided. In particular, a class of the disturbances to be rejected by the control law is characterized, a maximum control magnitude and the settling-time of the closed-loop system are estimated.
