Control of switched systems with limited information

Abstract

Switched systems and control with limited information are two research areas that have evolved rapidly but separately over the last two decades. In this talk we present an attempt at their unified study, by considering a stabilization problem for a switched linear system with sampled and quantized state measurements. In our setting, at the sampling times the active mode of the switched system is known, but between the sampling times the switching signal is unknown and is only subject to mild slow-switching assumptions. An important ingredient in our stabilizing quantized feedback control strategy is the propagation of reachable set over-approximations for switched systems, a problem that has received a lot of attention in the hybrid systems literature and for which we propose a novel algorithm.
