Abstract

In this chapter, we apply the \(L_2\)-gain concepts and techniques from Chaps. 3 and 8 to obtain some useful types of representations of nonlinear systems, different from the standard input-state-output representation.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Called “all-pass” since a single-input single-output linear system is inner if and only if its transfer function has amplitude 1 for all frequencies.

  2. 2.

    Many of the subsequent developments continue to hold for any \(C^1\) function V satisfying (9.62) (not necessarily \(\ge 0\)). However, in this case the factor system \(\Theta \) will not be inner anymore; but only cyclo-conservative with respect to the supply rate \(\frac{1}{2}\Vert \bar{y}\Vert ^2 - \frac{1}{2}\Vert y\Vert ^2\).

  3. 3.

    If \((x_e,u_e)\) is an asymptotically stable steady state then \(||h(x_e,u_e)||\) is the steady-state value of the norm of the output y for a step input with magnitude \(u_e\).

  4. 4.

    In this case \(\overline{\Sigma }^*\) is called an outer system: asymptotically stable with asymptotic stable zero-output constrained dynamics.

  5. 5.

    I thank Gjerrit Meinsma for an illuminating discussion on the derivation of the Smith predictor.
