Stability of Switching Systems - Quadratic Stability Under Arbitrary Switching For gain scheduled systems, stability of each subsystem {A1,A2} does not guarantee stability under arbitrary switching. Additionally, smart switching can stabilize two unstable systems. The System The state space formulation of each subsystem is given as follows: Where i = 1,2,...,n for each of the subsystems in the switching system. The Data For a switching system with multiple subsystems, the A matrix for each is defined by The LMI:Quadratic Stability Under Arbitrary Switching The switched system is stable under arbitrary switching if there exists some P > 0 such that and Conclusion: This implies that both A1 and A2 are Hurwitz. There is not necessarily a common quadratic Lyapunov function for both A1 and A2. This quadratic stability condition under arbitrary switching is a useful condition to use when designing controllers for switching systems. This LMI does not provide information on how the controller is designed, but is to be used as an additional condition to stabilize a switching system. Implementation This implementation requires Yalmip and Sedumi.
