Abstract :
In this paper, a quadratically semi-global control method is proposed which is a natural extension of the traditional gain-scheduling approach to nonlinear systems. The basic idea is to quadratically stabilize nonlinear systems with time-varying linear control for prescribed region of initial states based on the Lyapunov theory and robust control approach. A linear matrix inequality-type necessary and sufficient condition is derived, under which exponential stability is guaranteed for initial states in a prescribed set
