Some recent results of analysis and control for impulsive systems (Q2205374)

This paper is dedicated to review some recent developments of impulsive control theory. The survey gives a systematic account of recent developments of impulsive control systems. Based on the characteristics of impulsive control systems, the authors summarize three fundamental factors for the design of impulsive controllers, namely, the impulsive strength, the impulsive frequency and the impulsive instant. The paper briefly introduces the basic theory of impulsive control systems, the fundamental factors for design of impulsive control protocol, and the common analysis methods and techniques for impulsive control systems: the Lyapunov method, the comparison method, the impulsive differential inequalities techniques. These methods provide researchers a well-organized tool box to learn the impulsive control systems. At last, the authors discuss two kinds of impulsive systems with delays: impulsive functional differential equations and impulsive systems with impulsive input delays. Conclusion of the paper gives some interesting further work.
