We present a systematic procedure for designing H∞-optimal adaptive controllers for a class of single-input single-output parametric strict-feedback nonlinear systems that are in the output-feedback form. The uncertain nonlinear system is minimum phase with a known relative degree and known sign of the high-frequency gain. We use soft projection on the parameter estimates to keep them bounded in the absence of persistent excitations. The objective is to obtain disturbance attenuating output-feedback controllers which will track a smooth bounded trajectory and keep all closed-loop signals bounded in the presence of exogenous disturbances. Two recent papers (Pan and Bas¸ar, 1996a; Marino and Tomei, 1995) addressed a similar problem with full state information, using two different approaches, and obtained asymptotically tracking and disturbance-attenuating adaptive controllers. Here, we extend these results to the output measurement case for a class of minimum phase nonlinear systems where the nonlinearities depend only on the measured output. It is shown that arbitrarily small disturbance attenuation levels can be obtained at the expense of increased control effort. The backstepping methodology, cost-to-come function based H∞ -filtering and singular perturbations analysis constitute the framework of our robust adaptive control design scheme.

The event-triggered consensus control for leader-following multiagent systems subjected to external disturbances is investigated, by using the output feedback. In particular, a novel distributed event-triggered protocol is proposed by adopting dynamic observers to estimate the internal state information based on the measurable output signal. It is shown that under the developed observer-based event-triggered protocol, multiple agents will reach consensus with the desired disturbance attenuation ability and meanwhile exhibit no Zeno behaviors. Finally, a simulation is presented to verify the obtained results.

This paper is concerned with the nonfragile H∞ controller design problem for linear time-invariant systems. The controller to be designed is assumed to have norm-bounded uncertainties. Design methods are presented for dynamic output (measurement) feedback. The designed controllers with uncertainty (i.e. nonfragile controllers) are such that the closed-loop system is quadratically stable and has an H∞ disturbance attenuation bound. Furthermore, these robust controllers degenerate to the standard H∞ output feedback control designs, when the controller uncertainties are set to zero.
