Abstract :
The notion of the relaxed Robust Control Lyapunov Function (RCLF) is introduced and is exploited for the design of robust feedback stabilizers for nonlinear systems. Particularly, it is shown for systems with input constraints that “relaxed” RCLFs can be easily obtained, while RCLFs are not available.
