Abstract

SummaryFor systems with switched linear dynamics and affected by persistent switched exosignals, we propose a new hybrid control approach to achieve not only closed‐loop stability but also tracking and/or rejection of persistent references/disturbances generated by multiple exosystems, namely, output regulation. It is assumed that both controlled plant and exosystem are described by switched linear models. The proposed hybrid controller/output regulator is specified as a switching impulsive system, where the controller states will undergo impulsive jumps at each switching instant. Based on the average dwell time switching technique, it has been shown how to completely reduce the synthesis problem of the hybrid controller to a set of linear matrix equations and linear matrix inequalities. Both continuous‐time and discrete‐time cases are discussed. To demonstrate its usefulness, the proposed hybrid control method has been applied to solve the output regulation problem for a mechanical system. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
