Abstract
A variable structure convex programming based control for a class of linear uncertain systems with accessible state is presented in this note. A convex programming problem is solved, on-line, by reformulating the problem in terms of a piecewise smooth penalty function, and relying on a suitable analog variable structure system implementing the gradient procedure. In this way, the controlled system reference movement, optimal with respect to a pre-specified scalar convex cost function and a set of suitable equality and inequality constraints, is generated. An inner control loop aimed at the finite time exact tracking of the reference movement is also designed. As a result, the controlled system trajectory starting in the feasible region there remains, and the optimal movement in the feasible region is proved to be an asymptotically stable equilibrium point of the controlled system.
