Abstract
This paper addresses the problem of dynamic compensator design for exponential stabilisation of linear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) with multiple actuation control inputs and multiple non-collocated observation outputs. Both in-domain control and boundary control are considered. A new observer-based dynamic compensator is constructed by the non-collocated observation outputs such that the resulting closed-loop coupled PDEs are exponentially stable. By constructing a Lyapunov function candidate and using Poincaré–Wirtinger inequality's variants, a sufficient condition for the existence of such dynamic compensator is presented in terms of standard linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The closed-loop well-posedness analysis result is also established by the method of -semigroup and its perturbations by bounded/unbounded linear operators. Finally, numerical simulation results are presented to support the proposed design method.
