Output feedback stabilization of nonlinear networked control systems with non-decreasing nonlinearities: a matrix inequalities approach

This paper addresses an output feedback stabilization problem of a class of nonlinear systems with nonlinearities satisfying the non-decreasing property via limited-capacity communication channels. Using ideas from absolute stability theory, we propose an algorithm that consists of an observer and a coder/decoder-controller pair. Sufficient conditions for the stabilization problem are provided and presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
