Abstract

Validating properties of nonlinear systems is difficult given the complexity of solving nonlinear dynamics equations. In this paper, we develop an LTL-based model checking technique to specify and validate properties of a nonlinear system. The technique can hide the difficulties in handling nonlinear difference equations, simplify the specification of properties of physical systems, and provide a high level abstraction to analyze and control nonlinear systems. We apply the proposed technique to controller synthesis problems: determining a design for a simple nonlinear control system, and finding an appropriate dosage to prescribe for drug administration.
