Abstract:
In this paper, the stabilization of singularly perturbed systems by means of observer-based event-triggered control is studied. To obtain the ultimately bounded stability of the closed-loop system, two event-triggering conditions are designed, respectively, for the slow and the fast subsystems of the singularly perturbed systems based on the state errors between the observer and models. In each event-triggering condition, there are two different stages to be designed. In the first stage, the event-triggering conditions are given based on the observer error dynamics. While in the second stage, the absolute type event-triggering conditions are used. Under the designed event-triggering conditions, Zeno behavior can be eliminated from the closed-loop systems. Finally, numerical examples are provided to illustrate the efficiency and feasibility of the theoretical 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...
