Stability Analysis of Piecewise Affine Networked Control Systems Under Aperiodic Sampling
Abstract
This paper establishes an exponential stability analysis framework for piecewise affine network control systems based on integral quadratic constraints, and adopts the discrete-time method to study the aperiodic sampling problem under time-varying delay. The work of this article has three aspects. Firstly, discretize the continuous-time system to obtain an accurate discrete representation. Secondly, transform the model into a feedback interconnection system with construction operators to lay a theoretical foundation for stability analysis. Thirdly, the sufficient conditions for the exponential stability of the piecewise affine network control system were derived. Finally, the method based on integral quadratic constraints was numerically verified, providing a new theoretical tool to analyze the stability of networked piecewise affine systems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
