Efficient reachability analysis for linear systems using support functions

(2008-07)

This work is concerned with the algorithmic reachability analysis of linear systems with constrained initial states and inputs. In this paper, we present a new approach for the computation of tight polyhedral over-approximations of the reachable sets of a linear system. The main contribution over our previous work is that it makes it possible to consider systems whose sets of initial states and inputs are given by arbitrary compact convex sets represented by their support functions. We first consider the discrete-time setting and then we show how our algorithm can be extended to handle continuous-time linear systems. Finally, the effectiveness of our approach is demonstrated through several examples.
