Design of nonlinear regulators from logic-based stabilizers

We focus on a class of nonlinear systems that can be stabilized at a desired compact set by means of logic-based continuous feedback and we show how to design regulators that are robust to matched exosystem-generated disturbances. The proposed design methodology, of interest also for purely continuous-time systems, combines recent advances in the field of hybrid control systems and output regulation for nonlinear systems. As an illustrative example, the problem of global stabilization of a 6-DOF rigid body affected by a force periodic disturbance of uncertain amplitude, phase and frequency, is presented.
