The properties of the (robust) positively invariant sets play a fundamental role in variant techniques of (robust) control, such as the constrained control, robust analysis, synthesis and optimization. In this paper, we consider the robust control for the simultaneous tracking and regulation problem (STRP) of nonholonomic vehicle (whose control input is subject to the saturation constraint and the...Show More
This paper introduces methods of deriving and computing maximal robust positively invariant sets for linear discrete time systems with additive model uncertainty. Two types of uncertainty are considered: state dependent uncertainty, which can handle multiplicative parametric model uncertainty as well as linearisation errors for nonlinear systems, and scaled sets of uncertainty. We provide a framew...Show More
The practical importance of the application of the geometric theory of differential equations to the analysis of spray heating, evaporation, and ignition/combustion is demonstrated. It is shown that the system of equations describing these processes for a mono-sized fuel droplet spray can contain non-Lipschitzian nonlinearities. The approaches to the analysis of the systems of ordinary differentia...Show More
The constrained regulation problem for a class of rectangular descriptor systems with constrained states and controls is considered in this paper. A dynamic compensator is designed to guarantee that resultant closed-loop singular systems are admissible, and have a prescribed positively invariant set. Our design approach first translates the regulation problem into that for square descriptor system...Show More
The article establishes a constructive link between two approaches for analyzing the stability of discrete-time switched linear systems with arbitrary switching. The first approach is based on quasi-quadratic Lyapunov functions while the second one concerns a set-theoretic analysis of switched systems. An LMIs based procedure for deriving quasi-quadratic Lyapunov functions from the set-theoretic a...Show More

The necessary definitions in UAS-SMC method is given to show the detailed information of this method. And relationship between UAS-SMC and traditional SMC method is presented to clearly understand the UAS-SMC theory. Then, a disconti...Show More
This paper considers local stability analysis of nonlinear systems with deriving a positively invariant set based on Rantzer's stability theory by using density functions. We define notion of locally defined density functions around an equilibrium that give monotonously increasing positive measures near the equilibrium of a nonlinear system. Under several assumptions, it is shown that some level s...Show More
The problem of robust control for uncertain nonlinear systems with high-gain observer is considered. Using singularly perturbed theory, we have proven that the closed loop system based on high-gain output feedback controller is asymptotically stable as long as the state feedback system is asymptotically stable under the meaning of stability in the first approximation, the states will enter the pos...Show More
The problem of dynamical behavior and synchronization is investigated for the earth's magnetic field system in this paper. By construct a family of generalized radically infinite and positive definite Lyapunov functions, the globally attractive set and positively invariant set of the earth's magnetic field system are obtained. The chaotic behaviors of the earth's magnetic field system has been inv...Show More
An efficient algorithm is proposed for computing the solution to the constrained finite time optimal control (CFTOC) problem for discrete-time piecewise affine (PWA) systems with a quadratic performance index. The maximal positively invariant terminal set, which is feasible and invariant with respect to a feedback control law, is computed as terminal target set and an associated Lyapunov function ...Show More
The problem of robust controller Design for uncertain nonlinear systems is considered. Based on singularly perturbed theory, we have proven that the states will enter the positively invariant subset within finite time under some definite initial conditions, and the controller is robust to all uncertain terms that belong to a known compact set. The simulation results show the controller can recur t...Show More
The control problem of linear discrete-time systems with constraints of control, state and initial state is studied. State feedback control law of linear constrained systems is designed based on positively invariant sets of linear systems so that all given initial states of system asymptotically transfer to the origin while all constraints are satisfied. Firstly, the problem of the existence of th...Show More
This paper proposes the use of cylinders as primary invariant sets to be used in certain state-constrained control designs. Following the idea originally introduced by O'Dell, the primary invariant set is intersected with the state constraints to yield sets which retain the invariance under some conditions. Although several results presented here apply to fairly general nonlinear systems and prima...Show More
This paper presents novel results on robust positively invariant (RPI) sets for linear discrete-time systems with additive disturbances. In particular, we determine how RPI sets change with scaling of the disturbance set. In this context, we analyze families of RPI sets for a given interval of scaling factors. Such parametric RPI sets are useful to study the sensitivity of the system to changes in...Show More
This paper provides results on the minimal robust positively invariant set and its robust positively invariant approximations of an asymptotically stable, continuous-time, linear time-invariant system. The minimal robust positively invariant set is characterized as an infinite time Aumann Integral. A novel family of robust positively invariant sets, defined as a simple scaling of a finite time Aum...Show More
Set invariance plays a fundamental role in the analysis and design of linear systems. This paper proposes a novel method for constructing robust positively invariant (RPI) sets for discrete-time linear parameter varying (LPV) systems. Starting from the stability assumption in the absence of disturbances, we aim to construct the RPI sets for parametric uncertain system. The existence condition of a...Show More
This paper studies a class of uncertain discrete event systems over the max–plus algebra, where system matrices are unknown but are convex combinations of known matrices. These systems model a wide range of applications, e.g. transportation systems with varying vehicle travel time and queueing networks with uncertain arrival and queuing time. This paper presents the computational methods for diffe...Show More
This paper proposes an output feedback controller capable of ensuring steady-state offset-free tracking for ramp and sinusoidal reference signals while ensuring local stability and state and input constraints fulfillment. The proposed solution is derived by jointly exploiting the internal model principle, polyhedral robust positively invariant arguments, and the Extended Farkas' Lemma. In particul...Show More
This paper considers an approximate robust receding horizon control algorithm for a class of hybrid systems by exploiting the equivalence between piecewise linear systems and mixed logical dynamical systems. The control algorithm consists of two control modes which are a state feedback mode and a receding horizon control mode. In the receding horizon control mode, the constrained positively invari...Show More
One of the main problems in Model Predictive control MPC is the lack of guaranteed feasibility and stability. In this paper we propose a strategy to resolve the optimization problem associated with fuzzy predictive control to find a solution that is both stable and admissible. The proposed explicit approach, combined with the theory of invariant sets, provides a secure and admissible solution for ...Show More
In this paper, a security problem in control systems is studied. We consider a controller that transmits the control signal to an actuator. An attacker can compromise the controller in order to degrade the legitimate control signal. We investigate the prevention of attacks that lead to a premature aging of an actuator. We propose to limit the actuator's output range in order to guarantee its norma...Show More
For linear, time invariant stable systems with additive state disturbances that are bounded by polytopic sets, we establish connections between the minimal robust positively invariant set (mRPI) and ultimate-bound invariant (UBI) sets. We first identify cases for which the mRPI set is finitely determined. We then apply those cases to address the dual problem of finding (i) the A matrix of an LTI s...Show More
It has been recently shown that for the problem of optimal rejection of persistent disturbances using full-state feedback, static nonlinear controllers can recover the performance level achieved by any linear dynamic controller. In this paper we complement these results by showing that for this problem nonlinear dynamic time-varying finite dimensional, possibly discontinuous, compensators do not o...Show More
The persistent disturbance rejection problem (L1 Optimal Control) for continuous time-systems leads to non-rational compensators, even for SISO systems [1-3]. As noted in [2], the difficulty of physically implementing these controllers suggest that the most significant applications of the continuous time L1 theory is to furnish bounds for the achievable performance of discrete-time controllers. Ho...Show More
In this paper, we develop an algorithm for the efficient computation of Robust Positively Invariant sets for linear discrete-time systems subject to bounded additive disturbances and polytopic input constraints. The proposed algorithm simultaneously computes both the optimal invariant set and the corresponding state-feedback control law in one step by solving a single semidefinite program. Ellipso...Show More
