It is difficult to asymptotically stabilize a dyadic bilinear system with only multiplicative control inputs when the open-loop dynamics are unstable. The previous approach of cascading a division controller with a constant-size dead zone can only stabilize but not asymptotically stabilize the system. This note proposes a new control design which cascades a division controller with a modified dead zone whose size is proportional to the modulus of the system state. It is shown that this new division controller can globally and exponentially stabilize any open-loop unstable dyadic bilinear system as long as it is controllable.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
