Characterization and computation of disturbance invariant sets for constrained switched linear systems with dwell time restriction
This paper introduces the concept and characterization of Disturbance-Dwell-Time invariance (DDT-invariance) and Constraint Admissible DDT-invariance (CADDT-invariance) for constrained systems with additive disturbance under dwell-time switching. Using the characterization, necessary and sufficient conditions for DDT-invariance and algorithms for the computation of the minimal and maximal constraint admissible convex DDT-invariant sets are provided. Numerical examples of such sets for several systems are also provided. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
