Switched linear state feedback control and partial synchronization in dynamic networks
Mihaela R. Cistelecan · 2007
The paper aims at designing a nonlinear control for dynamic networks. The motivation for studying this problem stands in the problem of agents coordination in formation stabilization. Both problems of control design and feasibility are approached as they are strongly connected. The control law is in the form of a switched linear state feedback. The feasibility test is stated as a partial synchronization of the composite subsystems of the dynamic network. The design is formalized in the robust control setting, using Linear Matrix Inequalities.
