Stability analysis and design of cooperative control for linear delta operator system

This paper investigates the cooperative state feedback control problem for delta operator-based large-scale systems with independent subsystems. First, the state feedback controller is introduced to interconnect the adjacent subsystems into a closed-loop system. Second, the Lyapunov function in delta domain is constructed, and the linear matrix inequality method is used to design the cooperative state feedback stability controller for the whole large-scale interconnected system. Third, a performance index is introduced for the design of the optimal cooperative state feedback controller. Finally, stability of the closed-loop system is proved on the basis of stability theory, and simulation examples are given for showing the effectiveness of the design method.
