A New Approach for Feedback Stabilization and its Application for Data-Driven Control of Polynomial Systems

Abstract

Inspired by recent developments in dissipativity-based control, this work proposes new sufficient conditions for asymptotic stabilization of nonlinear systems using state feedback. We prove that this new framework is well suited for data-driven control of polynomial systems using noisy measurements, a topic that has lately attracted considerable attention. Two iterative procedures for data-based state feedback design are provided using the proposed framework, that use sum-of-squares (SOS) optimization. Typical limitations of conventional SOS methods based on alternating (D-K) procedures for controller design, such as the need to provide an initialization for a control-Lyapunov function (CLF), are overcome in this paper. Numerical examples demonstrate the applicability and the advantages of the new strategies.
