BIBO stability of 1-D hyperbolic boundary control systems

Abstract

We study the question of bounded-input bounded-output (BIBO) stability of a class of 1-D hyperbolic boundary control systems, which, in particular, contains distributed port-Hamiltonian systems. Exploiting the particular structure of the transfer function of these systems, we derive several sufficient conditions for BIBO stability that rely on tests for the systems defining matrix parameters.
