Abstract

This paper discusses the controller synthesis problem of a nonlinear networked controlled system subject to delays in the measurement and actuation channels. The communication through the network also suffers non-stationary packet dropouts. The bounded nonlinearities in the plant state satisfy Lipschitz conditions. A Lyapunov function is developed for the closed-loop system considering dynamic output feedback and the resulting stabilization conditions are drawn in the form of linear matrix inequalities to ensure that the system is exponentially stable in the mean-square sense. The developed conditions are represented in the form of a convex optimization problem and the results are tested by simulation on a quadruple-tank process.
