Nonlinear Control Systems

Abstract

In this report we summarize our recent research on the development of a systematic methodology for the design of feedback laws achieving stabilization and regulation of nonlinear control systems. We consdier the stabilization and control of both lumped nonlinear systems and nonlinear distributed parameter systems. The principal control objective is output regulation, the ability of the output of a system to track a desired signal while rejecting signals produced by a known exogenous system. This objective must also be achieved in a manner that is robust with respect to variation in unknown plant parameters; i.e., we develop a methodology for output regulation that is robust against real parametric uncertainty.
