Stability analysis of sampled-data control systems with input saturation: A hybrid system approach

This work addresses the stability analysis of sampled-data control systems subject to variable sampling intervals and input saturation. From a hybrid system representation, stability conditions based on quadratic timer-dependent Lyapunov functions are proposed. Considering affine and generic polynomial timer-dependence, these conditions are cast in semidefinite and sum-of-squares optimization problems to provide maximized estimates of the region of attraction or to provide a lower bound for the maximum allowable intersampling time considering a given set of admissible initial conditions.
