Observer-based guaranteed cost control for networked control systems with packet dropout and nonlinear disturbance.

In this article, the observer-based guaranteed cost control method is investigated for the networked control systems (NCSs) with packet dropout and nonlinear disturbance involving event-triggered mechanism (ETM). The packet dropout processes, which appear in both the sensor-to-controller and the controller-to-actuator links, are represented by two mutually independent Bernoulli distributions, and the nonlinear disturbance is supposed to satisfy the Lipschitz condition. Since the systems states are unmeasurable, a state observer is designed to estimate the values of system state. The sufficient condition for the stability of the closed-loop system is addressed by applying the Lyapunov theorem, and a guaranteed cost controller is obtained based on the stability condition with the satisfaction of some given specified value of cost function. Furthermore, the controller design issue can be formulated as a convex optimization problem that is addressed by the linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique using the cone complementarity linearization algorithm. Finally, the availability of above method is proved by a simulation example. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
