Optimal control of large-scale singular linear systems via hierarchical strategy
This paper states a hierarchical strategy of large-scale singular linear system in which the system is composed of J singular linear subsystems with interconnections. Among hierarchical strategies, the two-level optimization conditions based on Interaction Prediction Method (IPM) are derived such that whole large-scale singular system is optimized. Based on the two-level coordination method, the optimization analysis and controller design of large-scale singular linear system is discussed. For this purpose, two decentralized nonlinear state feedback controllers are designed for each subsystem, such that the whole closed-loop linear system is optimized. These conditions are used to extract two IPM algorithms. Then, by using both algorithms, two numerical examples are given to confirm the analytical results and illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
