An adaptive fuzzy design for fault-tolerant control of MIMO nonlinear uncertain systems

This paper presents a novel control method for accommodating actuator faults in a class of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear uncertain systems.The designed control scheme can tolerate both the time-varying lock-in-place and loss of effectiveness actuator faults.In each subsystem of the considered MIMO system,the controller is obtained from a backstepping procedure;an adaptive fuzzy approximator with minimal learning parameterization is employed to approximate the package of unknown nonlinear functions in each design step.Additional control effort is taken to deal with the approximation error and external disturbance together.It is proven that the closed-loop stability and desired tracking performance can be guaranteed by the proposed control scheme.An example is used to show the effectiveness of the designed controller.     

Decoupling Controller with Disturbance Observer for LTI MIMO Systems

In this paper, a decoupling multivariable control strategy for linear time‐invariant (LTI) multi‐input/multi‐output (MIMO) systems is proposed. The strategy includes a multivariable disturbance observer (MDOB) and a decoupling controller. This MDOB is introduced to improve the system performances when the system encounters severe external disturbances. H₂ optimal scheme is utilized to design the MDOB filter. The controller is developed based on an inverse control method, through which the design process can be simplified. Simulation results certify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.     

Observer-based H∞ resilient control for a class of switched LPV systems and its application

This paper deals with the issue of observer-based H_∞ resilient control for a class of switched linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems by utilising a multiple parameter-dependent Lyapunov functions method. First, attention is focused upon the design of a resilient observer, an observer-based resilient controller and a parameter and estimate state-dependent switching signal, which can stabilise and achieve the disturbance attenuation for the given systems. Then, a solvability condition of the H_∞ resilient control problem is given in terms of matrix inequality for the switched LPV systems. This condition allows the H_∞ resilient control problem for each individual subsystem to be unsolvable. The observer, controller, and switching signal are explicitly computed by solving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is illustrated by its application to a turbofan engine, which can hardly be handled by the existing approaches.     

Dynamic output feedback sliding mode control for nonminimum phase linear systems with disturbance attenuation

A sliding mode control algorithm using output information only is developed in this paper for a linear system with mismatched disturbance. The nominal system is allowed to be nonminimum phase. A scheme designed to combine the output‐dependent integral sliding surface with a reduced‐order observer is proposed. Utilizing an H_∞ control analytical technique, once the system is in the sliding mode, the proposed algorithm can guarantee robust stabilization and sustain the nature of performing disturbance attenuation when the solution to one algebraic Riccati inequality can be found. A controller is designed to satisfy the reaching and sliding condition in line with the reduced‐order observer. Finally, a numerical example is explained to show the applicability of the proposed scheme. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley and Sons Asia Pte Ltd and Chinese Automatic Control Society     

RCMAC Hybrid Control for MIMO Uncertain Nonlinear Systems Using Sliding-Mode Technology

A hybrid control system, integrating principal and compensation controllers, is developed for multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) uncertain nonlinear systems. This hybrid control system is based on sliding-mode technique and uses a recurrent cerebellar model articulation controller (RCMAC) as an uncertainty observer. The principal controller containing an RCMAC uncertainty observer is the main controller, and the compensation controller is a compensator for the approximation error of the system uncertainty. In addition, in order to relax the requirement of approximation error bound, an estimation law is derived to estimate the error bound. The Taylor linearization technique is employed to increase the learning ability of RCMAC and the adaptive laws of the control system are derived based on Lyapunov stability theorem and Barbalat's lemma so that the asymptotical stability of the system can be guaranteed. Finally, the proposed design method is applied to control a biped robot. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme for the MIMO uncertain nonlinear system     

Optimal control of non-minimum phase integrating processes with time delay using disturbance observer-based control scheme

A systematical design method of optimal control for non-minimum phase integrating processes with time delay using disturbance observer-based (DOB) control scheme is presented. All stabilising controllers and the filter of DOBs for integrating plants are developed. Then the optimal set-point tracking controller and the optimal filter of DOB are systematically derived by minimising the H₂ norm performance specifications. The proposed design method has three main advantages. First, the design procedure is systematical and simple. Specified weight functions are chosen for step inputs and inputs similar to steps. The designed set-point tracking controller and the filter of DOB are given in analytical forms. Second, the designed set-point tracking controller and the filter of the DOB are optimal. They are derived from minimising the performance indexes of set-point tracking and input load disturbance rejection (ILDR). Finally, the set-point tracking performance specification and ILDR specification can be quantitatively achieved by conveniently tuning the adjustable parameters. Numerical simulations are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

H ∞ predictive control of networked control systems

This article is concerned with the problem of H _∞ predictive control of networked control system with random network delay. A new control scheme termed networked predictive control is proposed. This scheme mainly consists of the control prediction generator and network delay compensator. While designing the predictor, the control input to the actuator may be different due to networked induced time-delay and data dropout, and two cases are considered depending on the way that the observer obtains the plant control input u _t . The necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the closed-loop networked predictive control system to be stochastically stable for different u _t and random network delays in controller to actuator channel (CAC) and sensor to controller channel (SCC). A simulation study shows the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Composite disturbance‐observer‐based control and H ∞ control for nonlinear time‐delay systems

A novel type of control scheme combined the distance‐observer‐based control (DOBC) with H_∞ control is proposed for a class of nonlinear time‐delay systems subject to disturbances. The disturbances are supposed to include two parts. One in the input channel is generated by an exogenous system with uncertainty, which can represent the harmonic signals with modeling perturbations. The other is supposed to have the bounded H₂ norm. The disturbance observers based on regional pole placement and D‐stability theory are presented, which can be designed separately from the controller design. By integrating disturbance‐observer‐based control with H_∞ control laws, the disturbances can be rejected and attenuated, simultaneously, the desired dynamic performances can be guaranteed for nonlinear time‐delay systems with unknown nonlinear dynamics.

Composite disturbance-observer-based control and terminal sliding mode control for uncertain structural systems

A new type of composite control scheme of disturbance-observer-based control and terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) is proposed for uncertain structural systems. The disturbance are supposed to include two parts. One is generated by an exogenous system, which can represent the harmonic signals with modelling perturbations in structural system. The other part is external excitation in H ₂-norm context. The disturbance observers based on regional pole placement and D-stability theory are presented, which can be designed separately from the controller design. By integrating the disturbance observer with TSMC law, the disturbance with the exogenous system can be estimated and compensated, and external excitation can be attenuated in finite time. Finally, simulations for a four-degree-of-freedom building model excited by 1940 El Centro earthquake excitation are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach and compare the proposed results with the previous schemes with accuracy.     

Adaptive dynamic surface control for MIMO nonlinear time-varying systems with prescribed tracking performance

In this paper, an adaptive dynamic surface control scheme is proposed for a class of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear time-varying systems. By fusing a bound estimation approach, a smooth function and a time-varying matrix factorisation, the obstacle caused by unknown time-varying parameters is circumvented. The proposed scheme is free of the problem of explosion of complexity and needs only one updated parameter at each design step. Moreover, all tracking errors can converge to predefined arbitrarily small residual sets with a prescribed convergence rate and maximum overshoot. Such features result in a simple adaptive controller which can be easily implemented in applications with less computational burden and satisfactory tracking performance. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

A two‐degree‐of‐freedom ℋ︁∞ control design method for robust model matching

We propose an ??_∞ controller design method which achieves a closed‐loop transfer function equal or otherwise sensibly close to a desired transfer function, viz. a model reference design. The proposed controller design method inherits the model reference feature of the internal model control design method and incorporates the weighting scheme of the ??_∞ loop‐shaping. It utilizes Youla–Kucera parameterization in a two‐degree‐of‐freedom scheme to achieve robust model reference and high performance design while ensuring a sensible robust stability margin, and can be readily applied to the generic class of LTI systems (SISO, MIMO, stable, unstable).

Non-monotonic robust H2 fuzzy observer-based control for discrete time nonlinear systems with parametric uncertainties

A non-monotonic Lyapunov function (NMLF) is deployed to design a robust H₂ fuzzy observer-based control problem for discrete-time nonlinear systems in the presence of parametric uncertainties. The uncertain nonlinear system is presented as a Takagi and Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model with norm-bounded uncertainties. The states of the fuzzy system are estimated by a fuzzy observer and the control design is established based on a parallel distributed compensation scheme. In order to derive a sufficient condition to establish the global asymptotic stability of the proposed closed-loop fuzzy system, an NMLF is adopted and an upper bound on the quadratic cost function is provided. The existence of a robust H₂ fuzzy observer-based controller is expressed as a sufficient condition in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) and a sub-optimal fuzzy observer-based controller in the sense of cost bound minimization is obtained by utilising the aforementioned LMI optimisation techniques. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is shown through an example.     

Analytical decoupling control strategy using a unity feedback control structure for MIMO processes with time delays

An analytical decoupling control method is proposed for multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) processes with multiple time delays. The desired diagonal system transfer matrix is proposed first in terms of the H₂ optimal performance specification, resulting in the ideal desired decoupling controller matrix derived within the framework of a unity feedback control structure. It is demonstrated that dead-time compensators must be enclosed in the decoupling controller matrix to realize absolute decoupling for MIMO processes with multiple time delays. To alleviate the difficulties associated with the implementation, the ideal desired decoupling controller matrix is transformed into a practical form using an analytical approximation approach. Correspondingly, the stability of the resultant control system is assessed, together with its robust stability in the presence of process uncertainties. An on-line tuning rule for the single adjustable parameter of each column controllers in the decoupling controller matrix is given to cope with the process unmodeled dynamics. Finally, illustrative examples are given to show the superiority of the proposed method over the recently improved decoupling control methods.     

Observer-based H∞ controller for 2-D T–S fuzzy model

This paper develops a method of fuzzy observer-based H_∞ controller design for two-dimensional (2-D) discrete Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems. By reformulating the system, a linear matrix inequality (LMI)-based sufficient condition is derived. Then the fuzzy controller and the fuzzy observer can be independently designed, which guarantee an H_∞ noise attenuation γ of the whole system. Owing to the introduction of free matrices, the presented design method has a wider range of application and can guarantee a better H_∞ performance of the closed-loop fuzzy control system. Simulation results have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.
