This note studies the global robust output regulation problem for a class of nonlinear systems by an output-based event-triggered control law. First, we convert the problem into the event-triggered global robust stabilization problem of a well-defined augmented system based on the internal model approach. Then, we design an output-based event-triggered control law together with an output-based event-triggered mechanism to solve the stabilization problem, which in turn leads to the solution to the original problem by an output-based event-triggered control law. Finally, we illustrate our approach by an example. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this technical note, we consider the cooperative global robust output regulation problem for nonlinear multi-agent systems in output feedback form by distributed output feedback control. The main result can be summarized as follows: if the information of the leader can reach every follower through a path and the communication flows among the followers are bidirectional, then the problem can be solved by a distributed output feedback control law if the global robust output regulation problem for each subsystem can be solved by an output feedback control law.

The cooperative output regulation problem for linear uncertain multi-agent systems was studied in refid="ref14"/ via an internal model approach under the assumption that the information graph of the system contains no cycle. In this technical note, we further show that the no-cycle assumption can be removed if all subsystems of the follower have the same nominal dynamics. Moreover, by directly making use of the property of the internal model, we provide a more straightforward proof than the one in refid="ref14"/ in that we don't need to verify the satisfaction of certain matrix equations.

This technical note deals with the problem of robust controller design of uncertain discrete time-delay systems subject to control input saturation and bounded external disturbances. A sufficient condition is obtained, which guarantees the existence of state feedback controllers and an admissible initial condition domain such that the resulting closed-loop system is uniformly exponentially convergent to a ball with certain exponential decay rate for every initial condition emanating from the admissible domain. An iterative linear matrix inequality relaxation scheme can be used to construct desired state feedback controllers. A simulation example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
