Semi-global output regulation for linear systems with input saturation by composite nonlinear feedback control

To improve transient performance of output response, this paper applies composite nonlinear feedback (CNF) control technique to investigate semi-global output regulation problems for linear systems with input saturation. Based on a linear state feedback control law for a semi-global output regulation problem, a state feedback CNF control law is constructed by adding a nonlinear feedback part. The extra nonlinear feedback part can be applied to improve the transient performance of the closed-loop system. Moreover, an observer is designed to construct an output feedback CNF control law that also solves the semi-global output regulation problem. The sufficient solvability condition of the semi-global output regulation problem by CNF control is the same as that by linear control, but the CNF control technique can improve the transient performance. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by a disturbance rejection problem of a translational oscillator with rotational actuator system.     

Robust Output Feedback Model Predictive Control: A Stochastic Approach

This paper addresses the robust explicit model predictive control scheme for linear systems with input and output constraint in the presence of disturbances and noise. Conditions for disturbance rejection are established by incorporating a full state/disturbance observer. The separation principle is applied to design an optimal observer in the unconstrained problem. Then, an efficient algorithm is developed to explicitly design observer gains by minimizing a quadratic performance criterion. It is shown that the solution includes a set of regions with piecewise affine functions of the state and reference vectors and a set of regions with optimal observers. In the proposed method, two sets of partitions associated with the control law and the observer gains are obtained. Therefore, the online computation includes finding the active regions of both observer and control law partitions in which the current state is located. The proposed technique is particularly attractive for a wide range of practical problems where the exact model of the actual system is not available.     

Control design based on a linear state function observer

A control design method based on a linear state function observer is proposed. The method is a semi-inverse design procedure in that the control law is not designed before the observer system, but is a result of the observer design. However, the observer design is not completely independent of the control design, but seeks to yield a feedback signal that is close to a prescribed control law. First, the observer design problem is considered as the reconstruction of a linear function of the state vector. The linear state function to be reconstructed is the given control law. Then, based on the derivation for linear state function observers, the observer design is formulated as a parameter optimization problem. The optimization objective is to generate a matrix that is close to the given feedback gain matrix. Based on that matrix, the form of the observer and a new control law can be determined. The semi-inverse design procedure can yield a reduced-order observer with dimension considerably smaller than that of the system. Two numerical examples are used to demonstrate the proposed design procedure.

Disturbance Observer Based Dynamic Output Feedback Controller Design for Linear Uncertain Systems

For linear multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems with mismatched parameter uncertainties and matched nonlinear perturbations, a compensator‐based controller based on the disturbance estimation algorithm is considered in this paper. We design a reduced‐order high‐gain observer to estimate the effect of matched perturbation, and introduce the estimation information into the controller design. Using singular perturbation theory, the proposed control law can guarantee robust stability of the closed‐loop system. Moreover, the peaking phenomenon in the control input during the transient time can be effectively avoided using our method. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed method is illustrated by a numerical example.

High performance nonlinear adaptive control of temperature in cryogenic wind tunnel

A new nonlinear adaptive control method based on Immersion and Invariant (I&I) approach is proposed for the temperature control of a cryogenic wind tunnel. The proposed control method can be applied to wide range temperature operation of the tunnel by incorporating the nonlinear dynamic model of temperature into the controller design. By constructing globally stable nonlinear observer, and rendering an invariant and attractive manifold in the state space of plant and observer, the uncertain gain of known disturbance and unknown wind tunnel wall temperature are considered in the same manner within the adaptive I&I control frame. In the design, nominal heat transfer coefficient is deployed to avoid complicated design process involving nonlinear parameterization. This design leads to an adaptive output feedback stabilization control law for the temperature with guaranteed transient and steady performance, which exhibits reasonable robustness to time delay in the control input channel and other uncertainties. The analysis and simulation show the effectiveness of the proposed control methodology.     

Robust feedback stabilization using high‐gain observer via event triggering

In this article, the problem of robust output feedback stabilization of single‐input single‐output nonlinear systems is studied in the event‐triggering framework. In this work, an event‐triggered output feedback law based on a high‐gain observer is constructed, which guarantees the stability of closed‐loop system. First, the high‐gain observer with a triggering scheme is designed to estimate the plant state in the presence of external disturbances subject to any satisfactory accuracy of the estimation error. The observer‐based triggering mechanism decides the transmission of plant output to the observer by observing a certain event condition. Similarly, another triggering mechanism is designed using the estimated state of observer that triggers the control signal to be updated only when it is satisfied. Under this proposed event‐triggering framework, the stability of closed‐loop system is then analyzed. Here, we provide the simplified design technique, in which the high‐gain parameter and the triggering thresholds can be selected independently to achieve any desired bound for the plant trajectory. The results are finally demonstrated through simulation of a numerical example.

Adaptive stabilization of uncertain nonholonomic systems by state and output feedback

In this paper, adaptive state feedback and output feedback control strategies are presented for a class of nonholonomic systems in chained form with drift nonlinearity and parametric uncertainties. Both control laws are developed using state scaling and backstepping techniques. In particular, novel adaptive switching is proposed to overcome the uncontrollablity problem associated with x₀(t₀)=0. Observer-based output feedback design is developed when only partial system states are measurable, and a filtered observer rather than the traditional linear observer is used to handle the technical problem due to the presence of unavailable states in the regressor matrix. The proposed control strategies can steer the system globally converge to the origin, while the estimated parameters maintain bounded.     

Output‐feedback‐based sliding mode control for networked control systems subject to packet loss and quantization

In this paper, observer‐based sliding mode control is considered for networked control systems subject to quantization, in which packet dropout may happen when the measurement output is transmitted from the sensor to the controller. Firstly, a compensating scheme is proposed to deal with the effect of packet loss modelled as a Bernoulli process. Then, by means of available output information and state observer, the desirable sliding mode controller is designed. Furthermore, both the reachability and the stochastic stability of sliding mode dynamics can be attained and the corresponding sufficient conditions are derived. Finally, numerical simulation results are provided to illustrate the proposed control law.

A new non‐linear sliding‐mode torque and flux control method for an induction machine incorporating a sliding‐mode flux observer

In this paper a novel sliding‐mode control algorithm, based on the differential geometry state‐co‐ordinates transformation method, is proposed to control motor torque directly. Non‐linear feedback linearization theory is employed to decouple the control of rotor flux magnitude and motor torque. The advantages of this method are: (1) The rotor flux and the generated torque can be accurately controlled. (2) Robustness with respect to matched and mismatched uncertainties is obtained. Additionally, a varying continuous control term is proposed. As a result, chattering is eliminated without sacrificing robustness and precision. The control strategy is based on all motor states being available. In practice the rotor fluxes are not usually measurable, and a sliding‐mode observer is derived to estimate the rotor flux. The observer is designed to possess invariant dynamic modes which can be assigned independently to achieve the desired performance. Furthermore, it can be shown that the observer is robust against model uncertainties and measurement noise. Simulation and practical results are presented to confirm the characteristics of the proposed control law and rotor flux observer. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Homogeneous observers, iterative design, and global stabilization of high-order nonlinear systems by smooth output feedback

We study the problem of global stabilization by smooth output feedback, for a class of n-dimensional homogeneous systems whose Jacobian linearization is neither controllable nor observable. A new output feedback control scheme is proposed for the explicit design of both homogeneous observers and controllers. While the smooth state feedback control law is constructed based on the tool of adding a power integrator, the observer design is new and carried out by developing a machinery, which makes it possible to assign the observer gains one-by-one, in an iterative manner. Such design philosophy is fundamentally different from that of the traditional "Luenberger" observer in which the observer gain is determined by observability. In the case of linear systems, our design method provides not only a new insight but also an alternative solution to the output feedback stabilization problem. For a class of high-order nonhomogeneous systems, we further show how the proposed design method, with an appropriate modification, can still achieve global output feedback stabilization. Examples and simulations are given to demonstrate the main features and effectiveness of the proposed output feedback control schemes.     

Static output-feedback controller design for a fish population system

This paper examines the problem of output feedback control of a Takagi–Sugeno (TS) fuzzy fishery system. The considered system is the continuous age structured model of an exploited population that includes a nonlinear stock–recruitment relationship. The effort is used as control term, the age classes as states and the quantity of captured fish per unit of effort as measured output. In order to stabilize the stock states around the references equilibrium, which means biologically the sustainability of the fish stock, the output feedback controller is adopted, rather than a controller based on the state observer. An algorithm based on the linear matrix inequality is proposed to compute the static output feedback gain. Simulation results of the continuous fishery systems confirm the effectiveness of the proposed design.
