Abstract
Decentralized Control of Switched Systems With Receding Horizon Modal Information and Path-Dependent Performance Specifications: Theory and an Application
Highlights
T HIS article focuses on decentralized control of nested systems with switching dynamics
Nested systems are characterized by interconnected subsystems with the unidirectional flow of information, as depicted in Fig. 1, or systems where the actions of one agent affect the dynamics of other agents downstream
Examples of nested systems can include multiagent setups, such as platooning vehicles [1], or the dynamic interaction between wind turbines in a wind farm arising from wake turbulence effects [2]
Summary
T HIS article focuses on decentralized control of nested systems with switching dynamics. Nested systems are characterized by interconnected subsystems with the unidirectional flow of information, as depicted, or systems where the actions of one agent affect the dynamics of other agents downstream. Such a nested structure corresponds to the system matrices having a block lower triangular sparsity structure. Examples of nested systems can include multiagent setups, such as platooning vehicles [1], or the dynamic interaction between wind turbines in a wind farm arising from wake turbulence effects [2].
