Finite-time stabilization of switched dynamical networks with quantized couplings via quantized controller

This paper concerns the stabilization of switched dynamical networks with logarithmic quantization couplings in a settling time. The switching sequence is constrained by hybrid dwell time. Controller is designed by using limited information. Due to the quantization and switching, traditional finite-time analysis methods cannot be utilized directly. By designing multiple Lyapunov functions and constructing comparison systems, a general criterion formulated by matrix inequalities is first given. Then specific conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities are established by partitioning the dwell time and using convex combination technique. An optimal algorithm is proposed for the estimation of settling time. Numerical simulations are given to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
