Robust H-infinity filtering on uncertain systems under sampled measurements

This paper is concerned with the problem of robust H-infinity filtering on uncertain systems under sampled measurements, both continuous disturbance and discrete disturbance are considered in the systems. The parameter uncer- tainty is assumed to be time-varying norm-bounded. The aim is to design an asymptotically stable filter, using the locally sampled measurements, which ensures both the robust asymptotic stability and a prescribed level of H-infinity performance for the filtering error dynamics for all admissible uncertainties. The derivation process is simplified by introducing auxiliary systems and the sufficient condition for the existence of such a filter is proposed. During the study, the main results were expressed as LMIs by employing various matrix techniques. Using LMI toolbox of Matlab software, it is very convenient to obtain the appropriate filter. Finally, a numerical example shows that the method is effective and feasible.     

Improved robust H2 and H∞ filtering for uncertain discrete-time systems

This paper is concerned with the robust H₂ and H_∞ filtering problems for linear discrete-time systems with polytopic parameter uncertainty. We aim to derive a less-conservative design than existing linear matrix inequality (LMI) based sufficient conditions. It is shown that a more efficient evaluation of robust H₂ or H_∞ performance can be obtained by a matrix inequality condition which contains additional free parameters as compared to existing characterizations. When applying this new matrix inequality condition to the robust filter design, these parameters provide extra degrees of freedom in optimizing the guaranteed H₂ or H_∞ performance and lead to a less-conservative design.     

Robust H-infinity filtering on uncertain systems under sampled measurements

1 Introduction Sampled measurements systems consist of a continuous- time plant and discrete-time plant. The systems contain sig- nals that evolve in continuous time as well as signals that evolve in discrete time. It is rather difficult to apply the stan- dard analysis results for linear continuous-time systems and discrete-time systems to the analysis of sampled measure- ments systems [1]. This fact has motivated much of the re- search on the analysis and synthesis of sampled measure- ments …

Robust switching-type H∞ filter design for linear uncertain systems with time-varying delay

This paper is concerned with the problem of robust H_∞ filter design for a class of linear uncertain systems with time-varying delay. The uncertainty parameters are supposed to be time-varying, unknown, but bounded, which appear affinely in the matrices of the considered system model. Based on linear matrix inequality (LMI) method and switching laws, a new switching-type filter is designed to guarantee the asymptotic stability and H_∞ performance level of the filtering error systems. The key feature is that the new proposed filter parameters are switching between certain fixed gains automatically via the designed switching law. It is shown that the new filter design method is less conservative than the traditional fixed gain filter design method. An example is given to illustrate the validity of the proposed design.     

Robust H∞ filtering with error variance constraints for discrete time-varying systems with uncertainty

The robust H_∞ filtering problem with error variance constraints is considered for discrete time-varying systems subject to norm-bounded parameter uncertainties in both the state and the output matrices of the state-space model. Sufficient conditions for a finite-horizon filter to satisfy state estimation error variance constraints as well as prescribed H_∞ performance for all admissible perturbations are given in terms of two discrete Riccati difference equations, which are of a form suitable for recursive computation. The results are extended to cover the case of stationary filtering over an infinite-horizon for uncertain time-invariant systems.     

A new approach to robust and non-fragile H∞ control for uncertain fuzzy systems

This paper investigates the robust H_∞ control and non-fragile control problems for Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with linear fractional parametric uncertainties. 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 is ensured. And the non-fragile H_∞ control problem is to design a state feedback controller with parameter uncertainties. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, new sufficient conditions for the solvability of the two problems are obtained. It is shown that the desired state feedback fuzzy controller can be constructed by solving a set of LMIs. Numerical examples are also provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.     

Delay-dependent robust H∞ control for uncertain systems with a state-delay

A robust H_∞ control for uncertain linear systems with a state-delay is described. Systems with norm-bounded parameter uncertainties are considered and linear memoryless state feedback controllers are obtained. Firstly, a delay-dependent bounded real lemma for systems with a state-delay is presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). By taking a new Lyapunov-Krasovsii functional, neither model transformation nor bounding for cross terms is required to obtain delay-dependent results. Secondly, based on the bounded real lemma obtained, delay-dependent condition for the existence of robust H_∞ control is presented in terms of nonlinear matrix inequalities. In order to solve these nonlinear matrix inequalities, an iterative algorithm involving convex optimization is proposed. Numerical examples show that the proposed methods are much less conservative than existing results.     

Networked H∞ filtering for linear discrete-time systems

This paper studies the problem of networked H_∞ filtering for linear discrete-time systems. A new model is proposed as the filtering error system to simultaneously capture the communication constraint, random packet dropout and quantization effects in the networked systems. A sufficient condition is presented for the filtering error system to be mean square exponentially stable with a prescribed H_∞ performance by employing the multiple Lyapunov function method. The obtained condition depends on some parameters of the networked systems, such as the access sequence of nodes, packet dropout rate and quantization density. With these parameters fixed, a design procedure for the desired H_∞ filter is also presented based on the derived condition. Finally, an illustrative example is utilized to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

New results on H∞ filtering for fuzzy systems with interval time-varying delays

This paper investigates the problem of H_∞ filtering for continuous Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with an interval time-varying delay in the state. Based on the delay partitioning idea, a new approach is proposed for solving this problem, which can achieve much less conservative feasibility conditions. The attention is focused on the design of an H_∞ filter via the parallel distributed compensation scheme such that the filter error system is asymptotically stable and the H_∞ attenuation level from disturbance to estimation error is below a prescribed scalar. The constructed Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, by applying the delay partitioning method, can potentially guarantee the obtained delay-dependent conditions to be less conservative than those in the literature. The obtained results are formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be readily solved via standard numerical software. Finally, an example is illustrated to show the reduction in conservatism of the proposed filter design method.     

H∞ filtering of networked discrete-time systems with random packet losses

This paper studies the H_∞ filtering problem for networked discrete-time systems with random packet losses. The general multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) filtering system is considered. The multiple measurements are transmitted to the remote filter via distinct communication channels, and each measurement loss process is described by a two-state Markov chain. Both the mode-independent and the mode-dependent filters are considered, and the resulting filtering error system is modelled as a discrete-time Markovian system with multiple modes. A necessary and sufficient condition is derived for the filtering error system to be mean-square exponentially stable and achieve a prescribed H_∞ noise attenuation performance. The obtained condition implicitly establishes a relation between the packet loss probability and two parameters, namely, the exponential decay rate of the filtering error system and the H_∞ noise attenuation level. A convex optimization problem is formulated to design the desired filters with minimized H_∞ noise attenuation level bound. Finally, an illustrative example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed results.

Networked H∞ control of linear systems with state quantization

This paper addresses the problem of H_∞ controller design for linear systems over digital communication networks. A new model is proposed to describe both the network conditions and the state quantization of the networked control systems in a unified framework. From this model, a quantized state feedback strategy is developed for global and asymptotical stabilization of the networked control systems. The same H_∞ disturbance attenuation level as that in the case without quantization is achieved. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

An innovation approach to H∞ prediction for continuous-time systems with application to systems with delayed measurements

This paper studies the problem of H_∞ prediction for linear continuous-time systems. By developing a new method of characterizing the innovation process and applying a novel innovation analysis approach in Krein space, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a finite horizon H_∞ predictor is derived. The solution to the H_∞ prediction is given in terms of solutions of Riccati and matrix differential equations. We further extend our study to give a necessary and sufficient condition for the H_∞ filtering of linear continuous-time systems with both instantaneous and delayed measurements.     

A mixed H2/H∞ adaptive tracking control for constrained non-holonomic systems

In this study, a PID type controller incorporating an adaptive control scheme for the mixed H₂/H_∞ tracking performance is developed for constrained non-holonomic mechanical systems under unknown or uncertain plant parameters and external disturbances. By virtue of the skew-symmetric property of the non-holonomic mechanical systems and an adequate choice of a state variable transformation, sufficient conditions are developed for the adaptive mixed H₂/H_∞ tracking control problems in terms of a pair of coupled algebraic equations instead of a pair of coupled non-linear differential equations. The coupled algebraic equations can be solved analytically.     

Output feedback LMI tracking control conditions with H∞ criterion for uncertain and disturbed T-S models

This work concerns the tracking problem of uncertain Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) continuous fuzzy model with external disturbances. The objective is to get a model reference based output feedback tracking control law. The control scheme is based on a PDC structure, a fuzzy observer and a H_∞ performance to attenuate the external disturbances. The stability of the whole closed-loop model is investigated using the well-known quadratic Lyapunov function. The key point of the proposed approaches is to achieve conditions under a LMI (linear matrix inequalities) formulation in the case of an uncertain and disturbed T-S fuzzy model. This formulation facilitates obtaining solutions through interior point optimization methods for some nonlinear output tracking control problems. Finally, a simulation is provided on the well-known inverted pendulum testbed to show the efficiency of the proposed approach.     

New delay-dependent non-fragile H∞ observer-based control for continuous time-delay systems

The problem of the delay-dependent non-fragile H_∞ observer-based control for a class of continuous time-delay systems is investigated in this paper. The additive gain variations under consideration are contained in both the controller gain and obhsiunserver gain. Delay-dependent criteria are derived to guarantee the stability of the non-fragile H_∞ observer-based control system using the Lyapunov functional approach. The controller and observer gains are given from the LMI feasible solutions. Based on the result of this paper, the constraint of matrix equality is not necessary for designing the non-fragile H_∞ observer-based controls. Computer software Matlab can be applied to solve all the proposed results. Finally, a numerical example is illustrated to show the improvement of this paper.
