Output Tracking Control Design of Switched Boolean Control Networks

In this letter, the output tracking control design of switched Boolean control networks (SBCNs) is investigated via state feedback and output feedback control. The algebraic state-space representation method which resorts to the semi-tensor product (STP) of matrices is utilized; necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the output tracking control problem are presented. A constructive procedure is given to obtain all possible switching signal-dependent state feedback and output feedback controllers under arbitrary switching signals such that the output of SBCNs tracks a time-varying reference trajectory. Finally, a SBCN model of the lactose regulation in the Escherichia Coli bacteria is considered to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.
