Nonlinear controllers for nonlinear systems with input nonlinearities

We develop an optimality-based nonlinear control framework for nonlinear systems with time-invariant sector-bounded memoryless input nonlinearities. Specifically, using an optimal nonlinear control framework we develop a family of globally stabilizing controllers parametrized by the cost functional that is minimized. Furthermore, it is shown that the control Lyapunov function guaranteeing closed-loop stability over a prescribed set of input nonlinearities is a solution to the steady-state Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation for the controlled system and thus guarantees stability and performance.
