Robust State Feedback Control Through Actuators With Generalized Sector Nonlinearities And Saturation

In control systems, actuators often have nonlinear characteristics that can not be neglected. For linear systems driven by actuators satisfying the generalized sector condition, a robust state feedback controller synthesis method is proposed to achieve the ultimate boundedness control. The method is based on the linear matrix inequality approach and is easy to apply. As an important special case of the generalized sector condition, the saturation characteristic of actuators is discussed separately, and non‐conservative results are obtained.     

PI control of discrete linear repetitive processes

Repetitive processes are a distinct class of 2D systems (i.e. information propagation in two independent directions) of both systems theoretic and applications interest. They cannot be controlled by direct extension of existing techniques from either standard (termed 1D here) or 2D systems theory. In this paper, we exploit their unique physical structure to show how two term, i.e. proportional plus integral (or PI) action, can be used to control these processes to produce desired behavior (as opposed to just stability).     

Stability analysis and antiwindup design of uncertain discrete-time switched linear systems subject to actuator saturation

This paper investigates the stability analysis and antiwindup design problem for a class of discrete-time switched linear systems with time-varying norm-bounded uncertainties and saturating actuators by using the switched Lyapunov function approach.Supposing that a set of linear dynamic output controllers have been designed to stabilize the switched system without considering its input saturation,we design antiwindup compensation gains in order to enlarge the domain of attraction of the closed-loop system in the presence of saturation.Then,in terms of a sector condition,the antiwindup compensation gains which aim to maximize the estimation of domain of attraction of the closed-loop system are presented by solving a convex optimization problem with linear matrix inequality(LMI)constraints.A numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

Asymptotic and robust stability of T‐S fuzzy genetic regulatory networks with time‐varying delays

In this paper, we propose and investigate a new general model of fuzzy genetic regulatory networks described by the Takagi–Sugeno (T‐S) fuzzy model with time‐varying delays. By using a Lyapunov functional approach and linear matrix inequality (LMI) techniques, the stability criteria for the delayed fuzzy genetic regulatory networks are expressed as a set of LMIs, which can be solved numerically by LMI toolbox in Matlab. Two fuzzy genetic network example are given to verify the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed approach. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Robust stability and stabilization of discrete singular systems with interval time-varying delay and linear fractional uncertainty

The robust stability and robust stabilization problems for discrete singular systems with interval time-varying delay and linear fractional uncertainty are discussed. A new delay-dependent criterion is established for the nominal discrete singular delay systems to be regular, causal and stable by employing the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach. It is shown that the newly proposed criterion can provide less conservative results than some existing ones. Then, with this criterion, the problems of robust stability and robust stabilization for uncertain discrete singular delay systems are solved, and the delay-dependent LMI conditions are obtained. Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the e?ectiveness of the proposed approach.     

Observer‐based Reliable Control for Discrete Time Systems: An Average Dwell Time Approach

This paper deals with the problem of reliable control for discrete time systems with actuator failures. The actuator is assumed to fail occasionally and can recover over a time interval. During the time of suffering failures, the considered closed‐loop system is assumed unstable. Using an average dwell time method and under the condition that the activation time ratio between the system without actuator failures and the system with actuator failures is not less than a specified constant, an observer‐based feedback controller is developed in terms of linear matrix inequalities such that the resulting closed‐loop system is exponentially stable. An example is included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

A new calculation method of feedback controller gain for bilinear paper-making process with disturbance

This paper presents a new method to calculate the feedback control gain for a class of multivariable bilinear system, and also applied this method on the control of two sections of paper-making process with disturbance. The robust H∞ control problem is to design a state feedback controller such that the robust stability and a prescribed H∞ performance of the resulting closed-loop system are ensured. The controller turns out to be robust with respect to the disturbance in the plant. Utilizing the Schur complement and some variable transformations, the stability conditions of the multivariable bilinear systems are formulated in terms of Lyapunov function via the form of linear matrix inequality (LMI). The gain of controller will be calculated via LMI. Finally, the application examples of a headbox section and a dryer section of paper-making process are used to illustrate the applicability of the proposed method.
