Decentralized control of network‐based interconnected systems: A state‐dependent triggering method

Summary This paper investigates decentralized control for a class of interconnected system. Different from the traditional systems, the considered system has the following features: (i) its subsystems are connected through a communication network subject to transmission delays and packet losses; (ii) the subsystems' multi-actuators are subjected to random faults; and (iii) the subsystems are subject to probabilistic nonlinear disturbances, the inner variation information of the nonlinearities, as well as their bounds information, is utilized to analyze the nonlinearities. Furthermore, in order to reduce the network bandwidth burden, a decentralized state-dependent triggering scheme is proposed. Considering aforementioned characteristics and using the state-dependent triggering scheme, new type of network-based interconnected system model is built. By using the Lyapunov functional approach, sufficient conditions for the mean square stability and stabilization of the network-based interconnected systems are obtained. Then reliable controllers, as well as the triggering matrices of the local subsystems, can be co-designed by using a cone complementary linearization algorithm. Two simulation examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness and application of the proposed method. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
