Hybrid Stabilization of Linear Systems With Reverse Polytopic Input Constraints.

This paper addresses the problem of globally uniformly exponentially stabilizing a linear system to the origin by output feedback while avoiding a prescribed set of input values. We consider that the set of input values to avoid is given by the union of a finite number of closed polytopes that do not contain the origin and we refer to this restriction as a reverse polytopic input constraint. We show that the synthesis of the hybrid controller can be performed by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities for the full-state feedback case, and by solving a set of bilinear matrix inequalities for the output feedback case. The resulting closed-loop hybrid system is shown to satisfy key conditions for well-posedness and robustness to small measurement noise. Furthermore, we apply the proposed hybrid controller to the stabilization of a single-input linear system subject to reverse polytopic constraints on the norm of the input. The behavior of the corresponding closed-loop hybrid system is validated by simulations. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
