Global exponential stabilization of nonlinear systems via width time-dependent periodically intermittent smooth control

Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, the global exponential stability and stabilization problems for a class of nonlinear systems are investigated. Some sufficient conditions to guarantee global exponential stable and estimate the minimum admissible value of the control width are presented in virtue of time-dependent width Lyapunov functions. Furthermore, a periodically intermittent smooth controller with variant control width is introduced and theoretical analysis is provided. The smooth index function of periodically intermittent smooth control inputs is defined and the supremum (or least upper bound) of smooth index function set can be solved. On the basis of the analysis, the designed periodically intermittent smooth controller not only can globally exponentially stabilize the nonlinear systems, but also can control the exponential convergence rate of the nonlinear systems. Finally, numerical simulations are given to verify the obtained theoretical results.
