Stability analysis and bang-bang sliding control of a class of single-input bilinear systems

Introduces a bang-bang sliding control of a class of single-input bilinear systems. The sliding function is chosen via the well-known pole-assignment method for linear time-invariant systems. Importantly, the bang-bang sliding control generates a reaching-and-sliding region and a stable-sliding region, each expressed by a set of linear inequalities. Both regions comprise the equilibrium point, shown to be asymptotically stable. However, the stability analysis is processed under the limitation that the system state should be initially located in the reaching-and-sliding region. Two numeric examples are used for demonstration.
