Stability and Oscillations of Nonlinear Pulse-Modulated Systems

The mathematical methods for studying stability and oscillations in control systems with various types of pulse modulation (pulse-width, pulse-frequency, combined and phases in different modifications) are treated in this volume. The approaches developed by the authors include the averaging methods which enable the reader to extend pulse-modulated systems, to absolute stability theory and the fixed-point approach for study of forced oscillations. The book should be useful for researchers, engineers and professionals in control theory and applied mathematics working in the fields of control theory, functional differential equations, dynamical systems and pde's.
