Energy-based control for hybrid port-controlled Hamiltonian systems

In this paper we develop an energy-based hybrid control framework for hybrid port-controlled Hamiltonian systems. In particular, we obtain constructive sufficient conditions for hybrid feedback stabilization that provide a shaped energy function for the closed-loop system while preserving a hybrid Hamiltonian structure at the closed-loop level. Furthermore, an inverse optimal hybrid feedback control framework is developed that characterizes a class of globally stabilizing energy-based controllers that guarantee hybrid sector and gain margins to multiplicative input uncertainty of hybrid Hamiltonian systems.
