Abstract

We study the steady state of a class of continuous min-plus linear systems by using the notion of system type. The aim is to control systems in order that outputs asymptotically track certain polynomial reference inputs in relation with the just-in-time criterion. As in conventional system theory, the use of system type property gives very simple expression for the resulting controllers. Disturbances acting on the system output are also considered.

Notes

  1. Controlling a system according to just-in-time criterion consists in delaying the input as much as possible so that the output occurrences do not exceed given deadlines (described by a reference input).

  2. Impulse e comes down to firing input transition an infinite number of times at time 0.
