Control Design and Performance Evaluation for a class of Switched Systems

混合动力系统的行为可以用基于事件的逻辑和微分或差分方程的混合来描述，这引起了人们极大的兴趣。切换系统通常出现在混合动力系统的背景下，当可以通过微分或差分方程描述每种模式的行为，并且基于事件的转换为不连续切换时。具有不连续特性的控制设计具有序数设计技术无法实现的巨大潜力。本研究项目讨论了具有不连续开关的控制设计技术。通过对网络控制系统和无线传感器网络的节能控制问题的应用，评估了所提出的设计技术的有效性。

Hybrid dynamical systems whose behavior can be described using mixture of event-based logic and differential or difference equations have been attracting significant interest. Switched systems typically arise in the context of hybrid dynamical systems when it is possible to describe the behavior in each mode through a differential or difference equation and the event-based transitions as discontinuous switchings. Control design with discontinuous characteristics has significant potential that can not be achieved by ordinal design technique. This research project discusses control design techniques with discontinuous switchings. The effectiveness of the proposed design techniques is evaluated through applications to networked control systems and an energy efficient control problem of wireless sensor networks.
