Abstract

This paper addresses the reachability/controllability of high order mix-valued logical control networks by using the semi-tensor product method, and presents some necessary and sufficient conditions for the reachability/controllability. The high order mix-valued logical network is converted into an algebraic form first, based on which the reachability/controllability of the system is then investigated, and several necessary and sufficient conditions are established. The study of several illustrative examples shows that our new method is very effective in dealing with the reachability/controllability of high order mix-valued logical control networks.
