| Content Summary | We develop a backstepping control design for a class of continuum systems of linear hyperbolic PDEs, described by a coupled system of an ensemble of rightward transporting PDEs and a (finite) system of m leftward transporting PDEs. The key analysis challenge of the design is to establish well-posedness of the resulting ensemble of kernel equations, since they evolve on a prismatic (3-D) domain and inherit the potential discontinuities of the kernels for the case of n + m hyperbolic systems. We resolve this challenge generalizing the well-posedness analysis of Hu, Di Meglio, Vazquez, and Krstic to continua of general, heterodirectional hyperbolic PDE systems, while also constructing a proper Lyapunov functional. Since the motivation for addressing such PDE systems continua comes from the objective to develop computationally tractable control designs for large-scale PDE systems, we then introduce a methodology for stabilization of general n+m hyperbolic systems, constructing stabilizing backstepping control kernels based on the continuum kernels derived from the continuum system counterpart. This control design procedure is enabled by establishing that, as n grows, the continuum backstepping control kernels can approximate (in certain sense) the exact kernels, and thus, they remain stabilizing (as formally proven). This approach guarantees that complexity of computation of stabilizing kernels does not grow with the number n of PDE systems components. We further establish that the solutions to the n + m PDE system converge, as n → ∞, to the solutions of the corresponding continuum PDE system. We also provide a numerical example in which the continuum kernels can be obtained in closed form (in contrast to the large-scale kernels), thus resulting in minimum complexity of control kernels computation, which illustrates the potential computational benefits of our approach. | en |
