Abstract
In the present work a systematic methodology for computing output stabilizing feedback control laws for nonlinear systems subject to saturating inputs is presented. In particular, the class of L'ure type nonlinear systems is considered. Based on absolute stability tools and a modified sector condition to take into account input saturation effects, an LMI framework is proposed to design the controller. Both regional (local) and global stabilization results are presented. The controller structure is composed by a linear part, an anti-windup loop and a term associated to the output of the dynamic nonlinearity. Convex optimization problems are proposed in order to compute the controller matrices aiming at the maximization of the basin of attraction, or the performance enhancement with a guaranteed region of stability. A numerical example illustrates the potentialities of the methodology.
