Safe and Efficient Switching Controller Design for Partially Observed Linear-Gaussian Systems
Switching control strategies that unite a potentially high-performance but uncertified controller and a stabilizing albeit conservative controller are shown to be able to balance safety with efficiency, but have been less studied under partial observation of state. To address this gap, we propose a switching control strategy for partially observed linear-Gaussian systems with provable performance guarantees. We show that the proposed switching strategy is both safe and efficient, in the sense that: (1) the linear-quadratic cost of the system is always bounded even if the original uncertified controller is destabilizing; (2) in the case when the uncertified controller is stabilizing, the performance loss induced by the conservativeness of switching converges super-exponentially to zero. The effectiveness of the switching strategy is also demonstrated via numerical simulation on the Tennessee Eastman Process.
