The paper deals with the supervisory control of a nonlinear uncertain system in which the switching is directed by the recently introduced state-dependent dwell-time switching logic. The proposed supervisory control architecture is shown to regulate to zero the state of the system without requiring the switching to stop in finite time. A significant class of systems to which the control architecture can be applied is the class of linear systems with input saturation. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
