Alrstrmt This paper presents a switching control scheme for multivariable nonlinear systems. Based on a fuzzy plant model of the multivariable nonlinear system, a switching controller consisting of H number of simple subcontrollers i s proposed. The paramctern of thc switching controller can be obtained by solvitig some LMls. A switching algorithm is developed. To illustrate the merits and the ...

We study noise-induced switching of a system close to bifurcation parameter values where the number of stable states changes. For non-Gaussian noise, the switching exponent, which gives the logarithm of the switching rate, displays a non-power-law dependence on the distance to the bifurcation point. This dependence is found for Poisson noise. Even weak additional Gaussian noise dominates switch...

Stabilizability and asymptotic stabilizability of switching systems is characterized in terms of the existence of controlled invariant sets and domains of attraction. Then the classical Kalman decomposition for linear dynamical system is extended to switching systems. This shows that the core issue for solving the stabilizability problem for switching systems is the stability of an autonomous (...

We consider a class of first order linear hybrid systems with saturation. A system that belongs to this class can operate in several modes or phases; in each phase each state variable of the system exhibits a linear growth until a specified upper or lower saturation level is reached, and after that the state variable stays at that saturation level until the end of the phase. A typical example o...

This note considers offline optimization of a switching sequence for a given finite set of linear control systems, together with joint optimization of control laws. A linear quadratic full information criterion is optimized and dynamic programming is used to find an optimal switching sequence and control law. The main result is a method for efficient pruning of the search tree to avoid combinat...

After identifying the general structure of a POTS (Plain Old Telephone System) Switching System we model individual components as communicating-nite state machines. Formulating the nite state machines in Promela (Process Meta Language) allows us to verify general and speciic properties of the model using the model-checker Spin. Modelling operational systems imposes design decisions, which we wi...

There are many papers related to stability, some on suppression or on stabilization are one type of them. Functional differential systems are common and important in practice. They are special situations of neutral differential systems and generalization of ordinary differential systems. We discussed conditions on suppression on functional system with Markovian switching in our previous work: “...

In this paper, periodic and chaotic behaviors in the Chua circuit system are investigated, and the analytical prediction of periodic flows in such a system is carried out. The solutions of the system in different regions with different parameters are first obtained. The switching boundaries are introduced for systems switching because of different system parameters in different domains. In the ...

This paper presents a queueing network model for common memory access contention and access contention to common data that cannot be referenced by more than one processor in a multiprocessor controlled switching system. The model takes into account the inter-dependence between these types of access contention, which is important for evaluating the performance of a single-bus multiprocessor syst...

A new method with an efficient algorithm is developed for computing the Lyapunov constants of planar switching systems, and then applied to study bifurcation of limit cycles in a switching Bautin system. A complete classification on the conditions of a singular point being a center in this Bautin system is obtained. Further, an example of switching systems is constructed to show the existence o...
