System order reduction in the stabilization of multi-block uncertain systems

From MaRDI portal





For a given uncertain system described by \[ \dot x(t)= Ax(t)+ Bu(t)+\sum^p_{i=1} G_if_i\bigl(C_ix(t)+ D_iu(t),\delta \bigr) \tag{1} \] where \(t\) is time, \(x(t)\) the state and \(u(t)\) the control input, two order reduction procedures which allow the quadratic stabilization problem associated with (1) to be reduced to a stabilization problem for a new system containing fewer state variables and possibly fewer uncertain terms are considered. Here, the matrices \(A,B,C_i,D_i\) and \(G_i\) are real and of appropriate dimensions. Furthermore, all the uncertainty in the system is characterized by the vector \(\delta\). For this purpose, the notion of a quadratically stabilizable ``via linear control uncertain system is introduced in Section 2, giving rise to the main result of the paper, which is proved in Section 5. More specifically, assuming that each of the uncertain/nonlinear functions \(f_i\) of (1) satisfies a global Lipschitz condition, then (1) is quadratically stabilizable ``via linear control, if and only if, an associated reduced system for (1) is also quadratically stabilizable. In this respect, the construction of a linear stabilizing controller is presented in Section 6.
