Switching event‐triggered control of switched systems with actuator saturation

Abstract

AbstractThis paper focuses on switching event‐triggered controller design for switched continuous‐time systems with actuator saturation. First, we revisit the switching event‐triggered sampled‐data mechanism (ETSDM) to adapt it to the state feedback control of switched systems with actuator saturation. Then, by thinking of the ETSDM as a switching between periodic sampling and continuous ETSDM, constructing a switching multiple Lyapunov functions to give the analysis and design, and adopting the sector conditions to deal with the saturation, the sufficient conditions and the initial region ensuring the exponential stability of the switched system are proposed. Furthermore, the corresponding solvable conditions for the switching event‐triggered controller and the triggering parameter matrices are established. Finally, a circuit example is given to illustrate the validity of the proposed results.
