Mixed H_2/H_∞ Control Using a Fuzzy Singularly Perturbed Model with Multiple Perturbation Parameters for Gust Load Alleviation

This paper presents a mixed H2/H∞ control using fuzzy singularly perturbed model (FSPM) with multiple perturbation parameters. Since FSPM with multiple perturbation parameters is an extension of models with a single perturbation parameter, the theoretical results are applicable to a larger class of systems described by multiple time scale nonlinear models, such as flying aircraft and flexible space robots. The parameter-independent solution of the mixed H2/H∞ controller was obtained in the form of linear ma...     

Robust H∞ Control of Hamiltonian System with Uncertainty

This paper investigates the robust H∞ problem for a class of generalized forced Hamiltonian systems with uncertainties. The robust L2-gain was proved for the Hamiltonian with a sufficient condition for stable control of multimachine power systems expressed as a matrix algebraic inequality. A similar sufficient condition was then extended to the robust H∞ control of Hamiltonian systems to construct the state feedback H∞ control law. A numerical example is given to verify the validity of the proposed control scheme, which shows the effectiveness and promising application of the method.     

Mixed H2/H∞ Control Using a Fuzzy Singularly Perturbed Model with Multiple Perturbation Parameters for Gust Load Alleviation

This paper presents a mixed H2/H∞ control using fuzzy singularly perturbed model (FSPM) with multiple perturbation parameters. Since FSPM with multiple perturbation parameters is an extension of models with a single perturbation parameter, the theoretical results are applicable to a larger class of systems described by multiple time scale nonlinear models, such as flying aircraft and flexible space robots. The parameter-independent solution of the mixed H2/H∞ controller was obtained in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The application of this approach to gust load alleviation of a flying vehicle verifies its effectiveness and flexibility.     

Robust H_∞ Control of Uncertain Linear Systems with Multiple State Delays—LMI Approach

This paper deals with the problem of robust H∞ control for uncertain systems with multiple state delays. The parameter uncertainties are unknown but norm - bounded. An LMI based method is developed for robust H∞ stabilization for a class of uncertain systems with multiple state delays via linear memoryless state feedback control. The resuits depend on the size of the delays and are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities, so they are less con. servative than those of delay - independent.     

A Delay System Approach to Fault Detection Filter of Networked Control Systems

In this paper,the fault detection filter(FDF) design problem for networked control systems(NCSs) with both network-induced delay and data dropout is studied.Based on a new NCSs model proposed recently,an observer-based filter is introduced to be the residual generator and formulated as an H∞-optimization problem for systems with two successive delay components.By applying Lyapunov-Krasovskii approach,a new sufficient condition on stability and H∞ performance is derived for systems with two successive delay ...     

Fault-Tolerant Control for a Class of Uncertain Systems with Actuator Faults

The problem of fault-tolerant controller design for a class of polytopic uncertain systems with actuator faults is studied in this paper. The actuator faults are presented as a more general and practical continuous fault model. Based on the affine quadratic stability (AQS), the stability of the polytopic uncertain system is replaced by the stability at all corners of the polytope. For a wide range of problems including H∞ and mixed H 2 /H∞ controller design, sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee the robust stability and performance of the closed-loop system in both normal and fault cases. In the framework of the linear matrix inequality (LMI) method, an iterative algorithm is developed to reduce conservativeness of the design procedure. The effectiveness of the proposed design is shown through a flight control example.     

H∞ control for uncertain Markovian jump systems with mode-dependent mixed delays

We study the problem of H∞ control for a class of Markovian jump systems with norm-bounded parameter uncertainties and mode-dependent mixed delays including discrete delays and distributed delays in this paper. Our aim is to present a new delay-dependent control approach such that the resulting closed-loop system is robust mean-square （MS） exponentially stable and satisfies a prescribed H∞ performance level, irrespective of the parameter uncertainties. Such delay-dependent approach does not require system transformation or free-weighting matrix. A numerical example shows that the results are less conservative and more effective.     

Robust control for uncertain singular systems with time-varying delay

We study the problem of L2-L∞, control for a class of uncertain singular systems with time-delay and norm-bounded parameter uncer- tainties in this paper. A new delay-dependent robust stability criterion is obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）. Based on this criterion, a state feedback controller is designed to guarantee that the closed-loop system is regular, impulse free and stable with a prescribed L2-L∞ performance satisfied for all admissible parameter uncertainties. A simulation example is included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Robust direct adaptive fuzzy control for nonlinear MIMO systems

For a class of nonlinear multi-input multi-output systems with uncertainty, a robust direct adaptive fuzzy control scheme was proposed. The feedback control law and adaptive law for parameters were derived based on Lyapunov design approach. The overall control scheme can guarantee that the tracking error converges in the small neighborhood of origin, and all signals of the closed-loop system are uniformly bounded. The main advantage of the proposed control scheme is that in each subsystem only one parameter vector needs to be adjusted on-line in the adaptive mechanism, and so the on-line computing burden is reduced. In addition, the proposed control scheme is a smooth control with no chattering phenomena. A simulation example was proposed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.

The robust control problem for a class of uncertain switched fuzzy systems with delays is investigated. Firstly,the model of the switched fuzzy system is presented and the parallel distributed compensation（ PDC） technology is employed to design fuzzy controllers. Then, based on the convex combination method, a sufficient condition for robust stabilization in terms of linear matrix inequalities（ LMIs） is obtained and a switching law is presented.Meanwhile,the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is taken to deal with time varying delays. Moreover,an algorithm is applied to finding a solution for a group of convex combination coefficient. Finally,a numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

H∞ Theory and its Application to the Position of Rolling Mill Control System

The controller designed according to classical or modern control theory will not satisfy the performance requirements when the controlled object in industrial field can not be described by exact mathematical model or the disturbance of the controlled system. In order to make the controlled system stable and having good performance, H∞ control theory was put forward to solve this practical problem. Taking the position of a rolling mill as the controlled object, it was rectified by optimal engineering way. Then, three different plans were put forward according to Bang-Bang control, LQ control and H∞ control, respectively. The result of the simulation shows that the controller designed according to H∞ method whose robust performance and ability to restrain colors disturbance is satisfactory.
