Disturbance Decoupling of Singular Boolean Control Networks

Abstract

This paper investigates the controller designing for disturbance decoupling problem (DDP) of singular Boolean control networks (SBCNs). Using semi-tensor product (STP) of matrices and the Implicit Function Theorem, a SBCN is converted into the standard BCN. Based on the redundant variable separation technique, both state feedback and output feedback controllers are designed to solve the DDP of the SBCN. Sufficient conditions are also given to analyze the invariance of controllers concerning the DDP of the SBCN with function perturbation. Two illustrative examples are presented to support the effectiveness of these obtained results.
