Abstract:
With this paper we extend our previous work on the subject, by including the case where the number of control inputs is different from the number of states which is frequently faced in control engineering problems. Uniform ultimate boundedness of the state and uniform boundedness of all other signals in the closed loop is guaranteed. Robustness of our algorithm due to the presence of a modeling error term which has linear growth with unknown growth coefficient is also established. Finally, the applicability of our control scheme is highlighted via simulation results.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
