Stability analysis for linear systems under State constraints

This note revisits the problem of stability analysis for linear systems under state constraints. New and less conservative sufficient conditions are identified under which such systems are globally asymptotically stable. Based on these sufficient conditions, iterative linear matrix inequality (LMI) algorithms are proposed for testing global asymptotic stability of the system. In addition, these iterative LMI algorithms can be adapted for the design of globally stabilizing state feedback gains.
