Abstract

Abstract: This paper addresses the output tracking problem of switched Boolean networks (SBNs) via the semi-tensor product method, and presents a number of new results. Firstly, the concept of switching-output-reachability is proposed for SBNs, based on which, a necessary and sufficient condition is presented for the output tracking of SBNs under arbitrary open-loop switching signal. Secondly, a constructive procedure is proposed for the design of closed-loop switching signals for SBNs to track a constant reference signal. The study of an illustrative example shows that the obtained new results are very effective.
