The benefits of the approach are to guaranteeing the satisfaction of the specified constraints, that is the primary purpose of reference governors, and explicitly taking the performance improvement into account. The infinite number of constraints involved in the problem formulation are reduced into a finite number. The main idea is to restricting the state variable at the final instance of finite-time reference management to a certain invariant subset of the state space such that fulfilling constraints for the primal control system is equivalent to restricting the state dynamics to this set.","PeriodicalId":131411,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 40th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat.

From a single symmetrical relay feedback analysis a set of general expressions are presented for on-line process identification. Using these expressions the exact parameters of open loop stable and unstable first order plus time delay (FOPDT) and second order plus time delay (SOPDT) transfer function models may be obtained from simple measurements made on the limit cycle. However, noise in limit cycle output results in inaccurate estimate of the process model parameters. This paper proposes an effective mother wavelet for tracking the critical points of a noisy output signal. Further, using the wavelets based noise reduction it has been shown how accurate measurements can be made on the noisy limit cycle signal. Simulation studies illustrate the value of the proposed identification method.","PeriodicalId":131411,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 40th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat.

Sufficient conditions to test and realize the stability/performance of this class of systems are given in terms of solvability of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs).

In this paper, we study the capability of feedback in dealing with both internal and external uncertainties for a class of pth-order nonlinear autoregressive control systems. The size of the uncertainty is described by the Lipschitz constant (L) of the uncertain nonlinear function under consideration. It is shown that, if p and L satisfy the following relationship: L+ 1/2 /spl ges//sup (1+p)//spl radic/(pL)(1+1/p), where pL>1, then there exists no globally stabilizing feedback for the corresponding class of uncertain systems, and we thus find a quantitative limit to the capability of the feedback mechanism in dealing with structural uncertainties.","PeriodicalId":131411,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 40th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat.
