Data-Driven Stabilizing Controller Design for Linear Infinite Networks

Abstract

We propose a direct data-driven method for controller synthesis of infinite networks composed of unknown linear time-invariant subsystems. Using a single set of noise-corrupted input-state trajectories collected from each subsystem, and provided that certain linear matrix inequalities hold, each subsystem is rendered exponentially input-to-state stable (eISS) by locally constructing an eISS control Lyapunov function together with an exponentially input-to-state stabilizing feedback controller. We then compose these local components under a compositional small-gain condition in infinite-dimensional spaces to obtain a global control Lyapunov function and an associated stabilizing controller, ensuring uniform global exponential stability of the infinite network. The approach is validated on a physical case study with unknown dynamics.
