The approach relies on introducing fake dynamics outside X and on synthesizing a piecewise affine and possibly discontinuous Lyapunov function on a larger bounded set containing X by solving a linear program. The existence of a solution proves that the origin is an asymptotically stable equilibrium of the original PWA system and determines a region of attraction contained in X. The procedure is particularly useful in practical applications for analyzing a posteriori the stability properties of approximate explicit model predictive control laws defined over a bounded set X of states, and to determine whether, for a given set of initial states, the closed-loop system evolves within the domain X where the control law is defined. date: 2011 date_type: published volume: 18 publisher: IFAC event_title: 18th IFAC World Congress event_location: Milano, Italy event_dates: August 28 - September 2, 2011 event_type: conference id_number: 10.3182/20110828-6-IT-1002.00539 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-3-902661-93-7 book_title: Proceedings of the 18th IFAC World Congress related_url_url: http://www.ifac-papersonline.net/Detailed/49359.html related_url_type: pub citation: Rubagotti, Matteo and Trimboli, Sergio and Bernardini, Daniele and Bemporad, Alberto Stability and invariance analysis of approximate explicit MPC based on PWA Lyapunov functions.
