Abstract
This paper deals with the design of linear observer-based state feedback controllers with constant gains for a class of nonlinear discrete-time systems in the form of a quasi-linear representation in presence of stochastic noise. For taking into account nonlinearities in the design of linear observer-based state feedback controllers, a polytopic modeling approach is investigated. An optimization problem is formulated to reduce the sensitivity of the controlled system towards stochastic input, state, and output noise with a predefined covariance. Due to the nonlinearities, the separation principle does not hold, thus, the controller and the observer have to be designed simultaneously. For this purpose, a Lyapunov-based method is used, which provides, in addition to the controller and observer gains, a stability proof for the nonlinear closed loop in a predefined polytopic domain. In general, this leads to nonlinear matrix inequalities. To solve these nonlinear matrix inequalities efficiently, we propose an approach based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) with a superposed iteration rule. When using this iterative LMI approach, a minimization task can be solved additionally, which desensitizes the closed loop to stochastic noise. The proposed method additionally enables the consideration of different linear closed loop structures by a unified Lyapunov-based framework. The efficiency of the proposed approach is demonstrated and compared with a classical LQG approach for a nonlinear overhead traveling crane.
