Stability of a second order consensus algorithm with time delay
—In this paper, we investigate a second order consensus problem in a directed graph with non-uniform time delay. This problem arises naturally in real multi-agent systems such as...

On the observability properties of homogeneous and heterogeneous networked dynamic systems
Abstract— This work provides a framework for the observability analysis of linear networked dynamic systems (NDS). A distinction is made between NDS that have homogeneous agent d...

Curve tracking control for autonomous vehicles with rigidly mounted range sensors
— In this paper, we present a feedback control law to make an autonomous vehicle with rigidly mounted range sensors track a desired curve. In particular, we consider a vehicle wh...

Practical stability of time delay systems: LMI's approach
— In this paper we discuss the practical stability of a class of time delay systems with an unstable equilibrium. We obtain sufficient conditions based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii fu...

A preliminary study on the effects of roll dynamics in predictive vehicle stability control
Abstract— A Model Predictive Control (MPC) -based approach is presented for autonomous path following via Active Front Steering (AFS). We start from the Nonlinear MPC (NMPC) prob...

A separation principle for linear switching systems and parametrization of all stabilizing controllers
In this paper, we investigate the problem of designing a switching compensator for a plant switching amongst a (finite) family of given configurations (Ai,Bi,Ci). We assume that...

Robust H-infinity control for uncertain time-delay TCP/AQM network system
—A robust active queue management (AQM) scheme based on H-infinty theory is presented for the problem of congestion control in TCP communication networks. In TCP/IP networks, the...

On stability in the presence of analog erasure channels
— Consider a discrete-time networked control scheme, in which the controller has direct access to noisy measurements of the plant’s output, but the controller and the actuator ...

Stabilization of closed sets for passive systems, part II: Passivity-based control
— In this paper we explore the stabilization of closed invariant sets for passive systems, and present conditions under which a passivity-based feedback makes the set stable, sem...
