Abstract
This paper focuses on the optimal robust reliable H∞ control for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with actuator faults. A new method of annihilating uncertain matrix is proposed. Based on this approach, a new method of disposing of the phenomenon of uncertain matrices multiplication is provided. In accordance with the method, the optimal robust reliable H∞ control problem for uncertain nonlinear systems is settled by employing state feedback, in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI). Finally, two illustrative examples are given to show the feasibility and validity of the proposed method.
