Incremental passivity-based output regulation for switched nonlinear systems via average dwell-time method

摘要

This paper investigates the output regulation problem for a class of switched nonlinear systems with at least a feedback incrementally passive subsystem via average dwell time method. First, the output regulation problem for switched nonlinear system via full information feedback is solved. The stabilizing controllers consist of the state feedback controllers and linear output feedback controllers. In some particular cases, it is unnecessary to verify that all the solutions of the switched nonlinear system converge to the bounded steady-state solution, while we only have to verify the regulated outputs converge to zero directly. Second, a dynamic error-feedback stabilizer for each subsystem and a switched internal model whose subsystems all are incrementally passive are designed to solve the output regulation problem for the switched nonlinear system under a composite switching signal with average dwell times. The stabilizer and the internal model are interconnected in a more simple way and allowed to switch asynchronously. Finally, two examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the obtained results. (C) 2019 The Franklin Institute. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
