Global Controllability of Switched Affine Systems

  • Chapter
Emergent Problems in Nonlinear Systems and Control

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences ((LNCIS,volume 393))

Introduction

Consider a linear control system

$$ \dot{x}=Ax+\sum_{i=1}^mb_iu_i:=Ax+Bu,\quad x\in {\mathbb R}^n,\;u\in {\mathcal U}^m, (9.1) $$

where \({\mathcal U}\) is the set of piecewise continuous functions. It is well known that (9.1) is controllable, iff the controllability matrix

$$ {\mathcal C}=\begin{bmatrix}B&AB&\cdots&A^{n-1}B\end{bmatrix} (9.2) $$

has full row rank, i.e., \(rank({\mathcal C})=n\) [12].
