Many interconnected systems in the real world, such as power systems and chemical processes, are often composed of subsystems. A decentralized controller is suitable for an interconnected system because of its more practical and accessible implementation. We use the homotopy method to compute a decentralized controller. Since the centralized controller constitutes the starting point for the method, its existence becomes very important. This paper introduces a non-singular matrix and a design parameter to generate a centralized controller. If the initial centralized controller fails, we can change the value of the design parameter to generate a new centralized controller. A sufficient condition for a decentralized controller is given as a bilinear matrix inequality with three matrix variables: a controller gain matrix and a pair of other matrix variables. Finally, we present numerical examples to validate the proposed decentralized controller design method.
This paper presents an abstraction-based technique to solve the problem of distributed controller design enforcing persistency specifications for interconnected systems. For each subsystem, controller synthesis is based on local distributed sensor information from other subsystems. An effective method is presented for quantification of such partial information in an abstraction in terms of level sets of Lyapunov-like ranking functions. The results are illustrated on a laboratory hydraulic system.
