Dynamic Intermittent Suboptimal Control: Performance Quantification and Comparisons

This paper presents a novel intermittent suboptimal event-triggered controller design for continuous-time nonlinear systems. The stability of the equilibrium point of the closed-loop system, and the performances are analyzed and quantified theoretically. It is proven that the static and the dynamic event-triggered suboptimal controllers have a known degree of suboptimality compared to the conventional optimal control policy. In order to generate dynamic event-triggering framework, we introduce an internal dynamical system. Moreover, the Zeno behavior is excluded. Finally, a simulation example is conducted to show the effectiveness of the proposed intermittent mechanisms.
