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.

In this paper the regulation problem of linear discrete-time systems with uncertain parameters under state and control constraints is studied. In the first part of the paper, two theorems concerning necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution to this problem are presented. Due to the constructive form of the proof of these theorems, these results can be used to the development of techniques for the derivation of a control law transferring to the origin any state belonging to a given set of initial states while respecting the state and control constraints.
