Reset control systems: the zero-crossing resetting law

Abstract: A novel representation of reset control systems with a zero-crossing resetting law, in the framework of hybrid inclusions, is postulated. The problems of well-posedness and stability of the resulting hybrid dynamical system are investigated, with a strong motivation in how non-deterministic behavior is accomplished in control practice. Several stability conditions, based on the eigenstructure of matrices related with periods of the reset interval sequences, and on Lyapunov function-based conditions, are developed.
