Reduced-order observer-based finite-time control for one-sided Lipschitz nonlinear switched singular systems

The reduced-order observer-based finite-time control problem for one-sided Lipschitz nonlinear switched singular systems is addressed in this paper. First, the design method of the reduced-order observer is given via state transformation. Then, based on the average dwell time (ADT) approach, some new sufficient conditions for regularity, impulse-freeness, have a unique solution and finite-time boundedness (FTB) of the dynamic augmented systems are obtained by exploring the reduced-order observer-based controller. Further, the lower finite-time bound can be obtained by using singular value decomposition method. And the state feedback gain and the observer gain are computed by solving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, the validity of the obtained method is illustrated by means of a numerical example and a DC motor system.
