Lyapunov Redesign Approach to Output Regulation of Nonlinear Systems Using Conditional Servocompensators

摘要

This paper studies the output regulation of nonlinear systems using conditional servocompensators. Previous work introduced the conditional servocompensator that acts as a traditional servocompensator in a neighborhood of the zero-error manifold, while acting as a stable system outside a boundary layer, leading to improvement in the transient response while achieving zero steady-state tracking error in the presence of time-varying exogenous signals. The conditional servocompensator tool was introduced for sliding-mode feedback controllers. This paper extends the technique to more general feedback controllers by using Lyapunov redesign and saturated high-gain feedback.
