Abstract :
Sufficient conditions for stability of closed-loop systems with a saturating actuator are derived from the viewpoint of time domain. The Bellman-Gronwall inequality is used to investigate the stability of these systems. Three kinds of controllers are considered to treat this constrained control problem. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the results
