Output feedback stabilization of nonlinear systems with delays in the input (Q2570770): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the nonlinear system with input delays \[ \dot{x}_1(t)=x_2(t)+\phi_1(t,x(t),u(t-d_1)) \] \[ \vdots \] \[ \dot{x}_{n-2}(t)=x_{n-1}(t)+\phi_{n-2}(t,x(t),u(t-d_1)) \] \[ \dot{x}_{n-1}(t)=x_n(t)+\phi_{n-1}(t,x(t),u(t-d_1)) \] \[ \dot{x}_n(t) = u(t-d_2),\quad y=x_1(t) \] with some growth assumptions on \(\phi_i\). The output feedback stabilizing controller \[ \dot{z}=Mz+Ny(t),\quad u = Fz \] is designed using a quadratic Lyapunov-Krasovskij functional. An example is discussed.
