Control Contraction Metrics: Convex and Intrinsic Criteria for Nonlinear Feedback Design
Ian R. Manchester ; Jean-Jacques E. Slotine ;
Date 11 Mar 2015
AbstractContraction analysis uses differential dynamics and appropriate metrics to show that all solutions of a particular system converge exponentially. In this paper we generalize this approach to problems in control design, giving sufficient conditions for exponential stabilizability of all trajectories of a nonlinear control system. The conditions can be expressed in terms of a dual metric as (convex) pointwise linear matrix inequalities. We show that for feedback linearizable systems the conditions are necessary as well as sufficient. We also show how computation can be greatly simplified through the use of a virtual dynamical system admitting any solution of the actual system as a particular trajectory. The results on virtual systems are used to derive novel convex criteria for exponential convergence to a flow-invariant nonlinear manifold. Extensions to approximate optimal and robust control are straightforward, and generalize well-known linear results. The proposed techniques are illustrated with several example problems.
