This paper deals with the problem of controlling a robot during a physical interaction through a representation of its tactile system. Although the force feedback has been widely u...

The distributed estimation of the number of active sensors in a network can be important for estimation and organization purposes. We propose a design methodology based on the foll...
Given linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) L1 and L2 in the same number of variables it is natural to ask: (Q1) does one dominate the other, that is, does L1(X) 0 imply L2(X) 0? (Q2) ...
This paper deals with the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) observability analysis for sensorless control design. The problem of loss of observability at low frequency rang...
Abstract-- We consider the concept of Stokes-Dirac structures in boundary control theory proposed by van der Schaft and Maschke. We introduce Poisson reduction in this context and ...
We consider the distributed control of a network of heterogeneous agents with double integrator dynamics to maintain a rigid formation in 1D. The control signal at a vehicle is all...
ABSTRACT. In this paper a secure communication method is proposed, based on left invertibility of output-quantized dynamical systems. The sender uses an output-quantized linear sys...
This paper deals with hierarchical model predictive control (MPC) of distributed systems. A threelevel hierarchical approach is proposed, consisting of a high level MPC controller,...

Abstract-- Switched systems evolve over a sequence of continuous modes of operation, transitioning between modes in a discrete manner. Assuming a mode sequence is known, the evolut...
Abstract-- In this paper we consider the problem of monitoring a known set of stationary features (or locations of interest) in an environment. To observe a feature, a robot must v...
