Disturbance attenuation via output feedback for nonlinear time-delay systems with input matching uncertainty (Q1720678): Difference between revisions

Summary: This paper studies the problem of output feedback disturbance attenuation for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with input matching uncertainty and unknown multiple time-varying delays, whose nonlinearities are bounded by unmeasured states multiplying unknown polynomial-of-output growth rate. By skillfully combining extended state observer, dynamic gain technique, and Lyapunov-Krasovskii theorem, a delay-independent output feedback controller can be developed with only one dynamic gain to guarantee the boundedness of closed-loop system states and the achievement of global disturbance attenuation in the \(L_2\)-gain sense.
