Event-Triggered Suboptimal Tracking Controller Design for a Class of Nonlinear Discrete-Time Systems

Abstract

In this paper, using the state-dependent Riccati equation approach, an event-triggered technique is proposed to solve the tracking problem for a broad class of nonlinear discrete-time networked control systems. It is shown that the proposed tracking controller leads to an asymptotically stable system, while the information exchange between the controller and the actuator can be directly affected with predictable results by changing a parameter of the controller called the triggering factor. The proposed method is experimentally validated on a laboratory three-tank system. The obtained results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed event-triggered technique for solving the tracking problem of a nonlinear system in a networked control framework.
