Many of the existing techniques for controlling switched systems either require the solution to a complex optimization problem or significant sacrifices to either stability or performance to offer practical controllers. In [13], it is shown that stabilizing, practical controllers with meaningful performance guarantees can be constructed for a specific class of hybrid systems by parameterizing the controller actions by a finite set. We extend this approach to the control of controllable switched systems by constraining the switching portion of the control input and fixing the feedback controller for each subsystem. We show that, under reasonable assumptions, the resulting system is guaranteed to converge to the target while providing meaningful performance. We apply our approach to the direct-injection stratified charge (DISC) engine and compare the results to that of a model predictive controller designed for the same application.
