Reference trajectory output tracking for Boolean control networks with controls in output

  • Received: 05 September 2022 Revised: 29 March 2023 Accepted: 02 May 2023 Published: 15 September 2023
  • This article investigates the reference trajectory output tracking issue of Boolean control networks (BCNs) that have controls in the output. Firstly, to solve the problem, some necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained. The tracking problem is studied from the perspective of set and matrix calculation. Next, an algorithm for determining whether the output tracking issue is solvable is proposed. Furthermore, the controller design algorithm satisfying the solvability condition is given. Using our methods, we can track some trajectories that cannot be tracked in BCNs without controls in output. In addition, for better application in practice, the corresponding changes in the network transition matrix and output matrix under state, transition, and input constraints are considered. Finally, some examples are presented to illustrate the validity of our results.
