Abstract
Some algebraic sufficient criteria for synchronizing two horizontal platform systems coupled by sinusoidal state error feedback control are derived by the Lyapunov stability theorem for linear time-varying system and Sylvester's criterion. The state variables are restricted in a subregion in order to obtain easily verified criteria. The validity of these algebraic criteria is illustrated with some numerical examples. A new concept, synchronization cost, is introduced based on a measure of the magnitude of the feedback control. The minimal synchronization cost as well as optimal coupling strength is calculated numerically. The results are meaningful in engineering application.
