TECHNICAL STABILITY OF FORCED MOTION IN NONSTATIONARY AUTOMATIC-CONTROL SYSTEMS OF VARIABLE STRUCTURE

摘要

Sufficient conditions of technical stability are established for nonstationary automatic-control systems of variable structure. The case is considered where for appropriate controls and for all admissible initial perturbations from a predefined measurable set of initial states, the nonstationary parameters of a process under external actions vary within given ranges. The control process depends on the mismatch signal and its derivatives up to an order that is less by one than the order of the equations of motion. The associated system of differential equations contains discontinuous time-dependent coefficients. A relationship is established between the eigenvalues of the quadratic forms of the given Lyapunov functions and the technical-stability criteria. It is shown that the technical-stability conditions do not depend on the sliding-mode conditions for variable-structure control processes.
