Abstract

We consider a special discrete-time hybrid problem: the plant state “lives” in ℝn and is affected by real-valued norm-bounded disturbances; the control input and measurement signals are sequences of symbols. The control problem is to find a feedback strategy which maps the sequence of measurement symbols into an appropriate sequence of plant input symbols. It is converted into, and solved as, a supervisory control problem for discrete-event systems (DES).
