Abstract

In this letter, our objective is to explore how two well-known projection dynamics can be used as dynamic controllers for stabilization of nonlinear systems. Combining the properties of projection operators, Lyapunov stability theory and LaSalle’s theorem, we confirm that the projection dynamics on the feasible set and tangent cone are Krasovskii passive. To show the effectiveness of the proposed approach, we use the projection dynamics on the tangent cone for stabilizing boost converters in a DC microgrid while satisfying predefined input constraints.
