Special Session 119: Dynamical Systems and Optimal Control
Contents
We consider nonlinear control systems for which only quantized and event-triggered state information is available and which are subject to random delays and losses in the transmission of the state to the controller. We present an optimization based approach for computing globally stabilizing controllers for such systems. Our method is based on recently developed set oriented techniques for transforming the problem into a shortest path problem on a weighted hypergraph. We show how to extend this approach to a system subject to a stochastic parameter and propose a corresponding model for dealing with transmission delays.
