Robust L1 fixed-order filtering for switched LPV systems with parameter-dependent delays
2015
Abstract This paper is concerned with the L1 fixed-order filtering problem for a class of switched linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems in which the system matrices and the time delays are dependent on the real-time measured parameters. The authors׳ attention is concentrated on designing the fixed-order filter that guarantees the filtering error system to be exponentially stable and to satisfy a prescribed L1 disturbance attenuation level with respect to all amplitude-bounded disturbances. Based on the switching logic with the minimum average dwell time (ADT), the delay-dependent L1 performance criterion for the switched LPV systems is first established. As there exists coupling between a…
On stability and stabilization of singular uncertain Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems
2014
This paper deals with the problem of robust stability and robust stabilization for a class of continuous-time singular Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems. Sufficient conditions on stability and stabilization are proposed in terms of strict LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality) for uncertain T-S fuzzy models. In order to reduce the conservatism of results developed using quadratic method, an approach based on non-quadratic Lyapunov functions and S-procedure is proposed. Illustrative examples are given to show the effectiveness of the given results Refereed/Peer-reviewed
Semiglobal practical integral input-to-state stability for a family of parameterized discrete-time interconnected systems with application to sampled…
2015
Abstract Semiglobal practical integral input-to-state stability (SP-iISS) for a feedback interconnection of two discrete-time subsystems is given. We construct a Lyapunov function from the sum of nonlinearly-weighted Lyapunov functions of individual subsystems. In particular, we consider two main cases. The former gives SP-iISS for the interconnected system when both subsystems are semiglobally practically integral input-to-state stable. The latter investigates SP-iISS for the overall system when one of subsystems is allowed to be semiglobally practically input-to-state stable. Moreover, SP-iISS for discrete-time cascades and a feedback interconnection including a semiglobally practically i…
Design and Low-Cost Implementation of an Optimally Robust Reduced-Order Rotor Flux Observer for Induction Motor Control
2007
The aim of this paper is to design and analyze reduced-order observers of the rotor flux of induction motors. The design is carried out in two steps. In the first step, a boundary of the stability region of the observation error is obtained corresponding to a chosen Lyapunov function. In the second step, the boundary is translated into a performance index that is minimized with respect to stator and rotor resistance variations and differences of voltages supplying the motor and those supplying the observer in order to obtain the largest stability region. Implementation of the observer on a low-cost fixed-point digital signal processor using look-up tables is described. Experimental results …
Observer-based H∞ control on stochastic nonlinear systems with time-delay and actuator nonlinearity
2013
Abstract In this paper, an observer-based H ∞ controller is designed for a class of extended Markov jump systems subject to time-delay and actuator saturation nonlinearity. Gradient linearization procedure is employed to describe such nonlinear systems by several linear Markov jump systems. Next, a mode-dependent Lyapunov function is constructed for these linear systems, and a sufficient condition is derived to make them stochastically stable, and then, a continuous gain-scheduled approach is applied to design a continuous nonlinear observer-based controller on the entire extended nonlinear jump system. A simulation example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of developed techniques.
-Infinity robust controller design for the synchronization of master-slave chaotic systems with disturbance input
2012
Published version of an article from the journal: Modeling, Identification and Control. Also available from the publisher: http://dx.doi.org/10.4173/mic.2012.1.3 This paper is concerned with the robust control problems for the synchronization of master-slave chaotic systems with disturbance input. By constructing a series of Lyapunov functions, novel H1 robust syn- chronization controllers are designed, whose control regulation possess the characteristic of simpleness and explicitness. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate the e ectiveness of the proposed techniques.
Output-feedback-based H∞ control for vehicle suspension systems with control delay
2014
This paper deals with the problem of output-feedback H∞ control for a class of active quarter-car suspension systems with control delay. The dynamic system of the suspension systems is first formed in terms of the control objectives, i.e., ride comfort, road holding, suspension deflection, and maximum actuator control force. Then, the objective is to the design of the dynamic output-feedback H∞ controller in order to ensure asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system with H∞ disturbance attenuation level and the output constraints. Furthermore, using Lyapunov theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, the existence of admissible controllers is formulated in terms of LMIs. With t…
Fuzzy motion control strategy for cooperation of multiple automated vehicles with passengers comfort
2008
This paper considers motion control for a cooperative system of automated passenger vehicles. It develops a cooperative scheme based on a decentralized planning algorithm which considers the vehicles in an initial open chain configuration. In this scheme the trajectories are intersections-free, and each trajectory is planned independently of the others. To ensure the stabilization of each vehicle in the planned trajectory, a fuzzy closed loop motion control is presented, where, based on the properties of the Fuzzy maps, the Lyapunov’s stability of the motion errors is demonstrated for all the vehicles. Based on the ISO 2631-1 standard, the saturation property of the Fuzzy maps guarantees lo…
Disturbance tolerance and rejection of discrete switched systems with time-varying delay and saturating actuator
2015
Abstract This paper is concerned with the problems of disturbance tolerance and rejection of discrete switched systems with time-varying delay and saturating actuator. Using the switched Lyapunov function approach, a sufficient condition for the existence of a state feedback controller is proposed such that the disturbance tolerance capability of the closed-loop system is ensured. By solving a convex optimization problem with linear matrix inequality (LMI) constraints, the maximal disturbance tolerance is estimated. In addition, the problem of disturbance rejection of the closed-loop system is solved. Two examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
Vibration control of base-isolated structures using mixed H2/H∞ output-feedback control
2009
A mixed H2/ H∞ output-feedback control design methodology for vibration reduction of base-isolated building structures modelled in the form of second-order linear systems is presented. Sufficient conditions for the design of a desired control are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities. A controller that guarantees asymptotic stability and a mixed H2/ H∞ performance for the closed-loop system of the structure is developed, based on a Lyapunov function. The performance of the controller is evaluated by means of simulations in MATLAB/Simulink.
