5. Motivational example
Pitch model of the experimental helicopter:
˙x1 =x2
˙x2 =
1
Iyy
(−mheli lcgx g cos(x1) − mheli lcgz g sin(x1) − FkM sgn(x2)
− FvMx2 + u)
where x1 is the pitch angle and x2 is the pitch rate.
Nonlinear part:
f (x1) = −mheli lcgx g cos(x1) − mheli lcgz g sin(x1)
PWA part:
f (x2) = −FkM sgn(x2)

Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional:
V (xs, ρ) := V1(x) + V2(xs , ρ) + V3(xs , ρ)

and P, R and X are positive definite matrices.
13. Sampled-Data PWA Systems: A Time-Delay Approach
The closed-loop system can be rewritten as
˙x(t) = Ai x(t) + ai + B(Ki x(tk) + ki ) + Bw,
for x(t) ∈ Ri and x(tk ) ∈ Rj where
w(t) = (Kj − Ki )x(tk ) + (kj − ki ), x(t) ∈ Ri , x(tk ) ∈ Rj
The input w(t) is a result of the fact that x(t) and x(tk ) are
not necessarily in the same region.

Theorem (1)
For the sampled-data PWA system, assume there exist symmetric
positive matrices P, R, X and matrices Ni for i = 1, . . . , M such
that the conditions are satisfied and let there be constants ∆K and
∆k such that
w ≤ ∆K x(tk ) + ∆k
Then, all the trajectories of the sampled-data PWA system in X
converge to the following invariant set
Ω = {xs | V (xs, ρ) ≤ σaµ2
θ + σb}
