In this paper we address the problem of self-triggered control of nonlinear systems under actuator delays. In particular, for globally asymptotically stabilizable systems we exploit the Lipschitz properties of the system's dynamics, and present a self-triggered strategy that guarantees the stability of the sampled closed-loop system with bounded actuator delays., QC 20190305

In this paper, we discover that the trace of the division of the optimal output estimation error covariance over the noise covariance attained by the Kalman-Bucy filter can be explicitly expressed in terms of the plant dynamics and noise statistics in a frequency-domain integral characterization. Towards this end, we examine the algebraic Riccati equation associated with Kalman-Bucy filtering using analytic function theory and relate it to the Bode integral. Our approach features an alternative, frequency-domain framework for analyzing algebraic Riccati equations and reduces to various existing related results., QC 20190305

The problem of time-constrained multi-agent task scheduling and control synthesis is addressed. We assume the existence of a high level plan which consists of a sequence of cooperative tasks, each of which is associated with a deadline and several Quality-of-Service levels. By taking into account the reward and cost of satisfying each task, a novel scheduling problem is formulated and a path synthesis algorithm is proposed. Based on the obtained plan, a distributed hybrid control law is further designed for each agent. Under the condition that only a subset of the agents are aware of the high level plan, it is shown that the proposed controller guarantees the satisfaction of time constraints for each task. A simulation example is given to verify the theoretical results., QC 20190305
