This book provides a wide variety of state-space--based numerical algorithms for the synthesis of feedback algorithms for linear systems with input saturation. Specifically, it addresses and solves the anti-windup problem, presenting the objectives and terminology of the problem, the mathematical tools behind anti-windup algorithms, and more than twenty algorithms for anti-windup synthesis, illustrated with examples. Luca Zaccarian and Andrew Teel's modern method--combining a state-space approach with algorithms generated by solving linear matrix inequalities--treats MIMO and SISO systems with equal ease. The book, aimed at control engineers as well as graduate students, ranges from very simple anti-windup construction to sophisticated anti-windup algorithms for nonlinear systems.* Describes the fundamental objectives and principles behind anti-windup synthesis for control systems with actuator saturation * Takes a modern, state-space approach to synthesis that applies to both SISO and MIMO systems * Presents algorithms as linear matrix inequalities that can be readily solved with widely available software * Explains mathematical concepts that motivate synthesis algorithms * Uses nonlinear performance curves to quantify performance relative to disturbances of varying magnitudes * Includes anti-windup algorithms for a class of Euler-Lagrange nonlinear systems * Traces the history of anti-windup research through an extensive annotated bibliography

Hybrid dynamical systems exhibit continuous and instantaneous changes, having features of continuous-time and discrete-time dynamical systems. Filled with a wealth of examples to illustrate concepts, this book presents a complete theory of robust asymptotic stability for hybrid dynamical systems that is applicable to the design of hybrid control algorithms--algorithms that feature logic, timers, or combinations of digital and analog components. With the tools of modern mathematical analysis, Hybrid Dynamical Systems unifies and generalizes earlier developments in continuous-time and discrete-time nonlinear systems. It presents hybrid system versions of the necessary and sufficient Lyapunov conditions for asymptotic stability, invariance principles, and approximation techniques, and examines the robustness of asymptotic stability, motivated by the goal of designing robust hybrid control algorithms. This self-contained and classroom-tested book requires standard background in mathematical analysis and differential equations or nonlinear systems. It will interest graduate students in engineering as well as students and researchers in control, computer science, and mathematics.

This book considers the problems of network-based control and optimization. These factors may degrade the system performance and even lead to the instability of the control systems. This book aims at providing a modeling framework and analysis approach for the general nonlinear networked control systems based on the hybrid framework.
