Abstract

This thesis serves as an introduction to "Positive Systems Theory" by providing an overview of the fundamental results concerning positive systems. Generally speaking, a dynamical system is positive if its describing variables only take nonnegative values. Motivated by various real-life examples, we study linear time-invariant systems in continuous and in discrete time and we provide characterisations for their positivity. Next, we show several ways to verify whether a positive system is asymptotically stable, which reveal that checking stability properties of large-scale systems remains practically feasible. We proceed with the widely recognised Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov lemma adapted to positive systems, which bridges the frequency domain and state space. Then, we tackle the positive stabilisation problem, i.e. we seek to design a controller, which achieves both stability and positivity. Finally, we take first steps towards data-driven analysis and control of positive systems by solving the problem of system identification. Throughout this thesis, we demonstrate our results with numerical examples.
