Abstract
This paper investigates the periodic event-triggered robust output feedback control problem for a class of nonlinear uncertain systems subject to time-varying disturbance. By means of the feedback domination approach and disturbance compensation technique, a new framework of periodic event-triggered robust control strategy is developed in the form of output feedback, which encompasses a discrete-time event-triggering transmission scheme that is only intermittently monitored at sampling instants and a discrete-time output feedback controller consisting of a set of linear difference equations. The proposed robust method may reduce the communication resource utilization as compared to the non-event triggering schemes while maintaining a desirable closed-loop system performance even in the presence of a general class of time-varying disturbance and nonlinear uncertainties. The closed-loop system under the proposed control scheme is actually modeled as a hybrid system, and it is shown that the global practical stability of the closed-loop hybrid system is guaranteed by selecting a sufficiently large scaling gain and a sufficiently small sampling period. Finally, the experimental results on a DC-DC buck power converter are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control approaches.
