All practical control systems exhibit control signal saturation. The effect that this saturation has on the control system performance, especially stability and robustness, can be significant and must be understood at the controller design stage. This paper presents conditions for global asymptotic stability and measures of stability robustness for such systems. These are demonstrated through simulation examples, and it is shown how an understanding of the stability conditions can inform the controller design process. The off-axis circle criterion is used as the basis for a sufficient condition for stability, and it is argued that this is not overly restrictive in practice. The derivations are carried out in discrete time, and servo-system control is envisaged as an important application area for the techniques; however, the results are applicable more widely.

A preview controller design method for discrete-time systems based on LMI is proposed. First, we use the difference between a system state and its steady-state value, instead of the usual difference between system states, to transform the tracking problem into a regulator problem. Then, based on the Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, the preview controller ensuring asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system for the derived augmented error system is found. And an extended functional observer is designed in this paper which can achieve disturbance attenuation in the estimation process; as a result, the state of the system can be reconstructed rapidly and accurately. The controller gain matrix is obtained by solving an LMI problem. By incorporating the controller obtained into the original system, we obtain the preview controller of the system under consideration. To make sure that the output tracks the reference signal without steady-state error, an integrator is introduced. The numerical simulation example also illustrates the effectiveness of the results in the paper.
