Optimal actuator switching synthesis of observer-based event-triggered state feedback control for distributed parameter systems

Abstract The study aims to explore the optimal actuator switching scheme of observer-based event-triggered state feedback control for distributed parameter systems. The performance of distributed parameter systems is improved through the observer-based event-triggered control, in which the state feedback is updated only when a triggered event happens. In such an event-triggered mechanism, the event-based closed-loop system and minimum time interval between consecutive events are bounded. Based on finite horion linear quadratic requlator (LQR) optimal control, the optimal switching algorithm is proposed based on the event-triggered mechanism during an unfixed time interval. Finally, the proposed scheme is verified through a simulation case.
