Region of attraction analysis with Integral Quadratic Constraints

Exponential Stability Analysis via Integral Quadratic Constraints

The theory of integral quadratic constraints (IQCs) allows verification of stability and gain-bound properties of systems containing nonlinear or uncertain elements. Gain bounds often imply exponential stability, but it can be challenging to compute useful numerical bounds on the exponential decay rate. This work presents a generalization of the classical IQC results of Megretski and Rantzer [1...

System Analysis via Integral Quadratic Constraints

This paper introduces a unified approach to robustness analysis with respect to nonlinearities, time variations, and uncertain parameters. From an original idea by Yakubovich, the approach has been developed under a combination of influences from the Western and Russian traditions of control theory. It is shown how a complex system can be described, using integral quadratic constraints (IQC’s) ...

Friction Analysis Based on Integral Quadratic Constraints

Integral Quadratic Constraints

Integral Quadratic Constraints (IQC) are inequalities used to describe (partially) possible signal combinations within a given dynamical system. IQC offer a framework for abstracting ”challenging” (e.g. non-linear, time-varying, uncertain, or distributed) elements of dynamical system models to aid in rigorous analysis of robust stability and performance (more specifically, to establish L2 gain ...

Robust Linear Quadratic Control of Systems with Integral Quadratic Constraints

In this paper, we consider the robust linear quadratic (LQ) control problem for a class of uncertain linear systems which are subject to a general type of integral quadratic constraints (IQCs). Both analysis and synthesis problems are considered in this paper. For the analysis problem, we determine if the system satisses a desired linear quadratic performance index for all admissible uncertaint...
