Robust H∞ control for uncertain singular systems with state delay

This paper addresses the problem of robust H_∞ control for uncertain continuous singular systems with state delay. The singular system under consideration involves state time delay and time‐invariant norm‐bounded uncertainty. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, we design a memoryless state feedback controller law, which guarantees that, for all admissible uncertainties, the resulting closed‐loop system is not only regular, impulse free and stable, but also meets an H_∞‐norm bound constraint on disturbance attenuation. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Robust Reliable H∞ Control for Discrete‐Time Systems with Actuator Delays

This article focuses on the robust state feedback reliable H_∞ control problem for discrete‐time systems. Discrete‐time systems with time‐varying delayed control input are formulated. Based on the Lyapunov–Krasovskii method and linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, delay‐dependent sufficient conditions are developed for synthesizing the state feedback controller for an uncertain discrete‐time system. The parameter uncertainty is assumed to be norm bounded. A design scheme for the state feedback reliable H_∞ controller is proposed in terms of LMIs, which can guarantee the global asymptotic stability and the minimum disturbance attenuation level. Finally, numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness and reduced conservatism of the proposed methods.     

ROBUST Hinfinity CONTROL FOR SYSTEMS WITH TIME-VARYING PARAMETER UNCERTAINTY AND VARIANCE CONSTRAINTS

In this paper, the problem of designing robust Hinfinity controllers for linear continuous-time systems subjected to time-varying parameter uncertainty and steady-state variance constraints is considered. The goal of this problem is to design the state feedback controller, such that for all admissible time-varying parameter perturbations, the steady-state variance of each state is not more than the individual prespecified upper bound and the Hinfinity norm of the transfer function from disturbance inputs to system outputs meets the prespecified upper bound constraint, simultaneously. The parameter uncertainties are allowed to be time-varying and norm-bounded. A purely algebraic matrix equation approach is effectively utilized to solve the problem addressed. The existence conditions as well as the explicit expression of desired controllers are presented, and two illustrative examples are used to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed design procedure.     

Control of Markovian jump discrete-time systems with norm boundeduncertainty and unknown delay

This paper studies the problem of control for discrete time delay linear systems with Markovian jump parameters. The system under consideration is subjected to both time-varying norm-bounded parameter uncertainty and unknown time delay in the state, and Markovian jump parameters in all system matrices. We address the problem of robust state feedback control in which both robust stochastic stability and a prescribed H_∞ performance are required to be achieved irrespective of the uncertainty and time delay. It is shown that the above problem can be solved if a set of coupled linear matrix inequalities has a solution     

A NEW INTEGRAL INEQUALITY APPROACH TO DELAY‐DEPENDENT ROBUST H∞ CONTROL

A design method for the robust H_∞ control of an uncertain linear system with a time‐varying state delay is proposed. First, an integral inequality that we recently obtained is employed to establish a new delay‐dependent bounded real lemma for a system with a time‐varying delay. The lemma uses neither a model transformation nor a bounding technique for cross terms. Then, the lemma is used in combination with a matrix decomposition method to derive delay‐dependent conditions for the existence of robust H_∞ control based on linear matrix inequalities. Finally, some numerical examples are given to demonstrate the validity of the method.     

Robust H∞ Filtering For Uncertain Stochastic Time‐Delay Systems

This paper deals with the problem of robust H_∞ filtering for uncertain stochastic systems. The system under consideration is subject to time‐varying norm‐bounded parameter uncertainties and unknown time delays in both the state and measurement equations. The problem we address is the design of a stable filter that ensures the robust stochastic stability and a prescribed H_∞ performance level for the filtering error system irrespective of all admissible uncertainties and time delays. A suffient condition for the solvability of this problem is proposed and a linear matrix inequality approach is developed for the design of the robust H_∞ filters. An illustrative example is provided to demonstrate the effctiveness of the proposed approach.

A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the application of the proposed method.     

NETWORK‐INDUCED DELAY‐DEPENDENT H∞ CONTROLLER DESIGN FOR A CLASS OF NETWORKED CONTROL SYSTEMS

This paper is concerned with the problem of robust H_∞ controller design for a class of uncertain networked control systems (NCSs). The network‐induced delay is of an interval‐like time‐varying type integer, which means that both lower and upper bounds for such a kind of delay are available. The parameter uncertainties are assumed to be normbounded and possibly time‐varying. Based on Lyapunov‐Krasovskii functional approach, a robust H_∞ controller for uncertain NCSs is designed by using a sum inequality which is first introduced and plays an important role in deriving the controller. A delay‐dependent condition for the existence of a state feedback controller, which ensures internal asymptotic stability and a prescribed H_∞ performance level of the closed‐loop system for all admissible uncertainties, is proposed in terms of a nonlinear matrix inequality which can be solved by a linearization algorithm, and no parameters need to be adjusted. A numerical example about a balancing problem of an inverted pendulum on a cart is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed design method.     

Robust H∞ output‐feedback control of retarded state‐multiplicative stochastic systems

Linear, state‐delayed, continuous‐time systems are considered with both stochastic and norm‐bounded deterministic uncertainties in the state–space model. The problem of robust dynamic H_∞ output‐feedback control is solved, for the stationary case, via the input–output approach where the system is replaced by a nonretarded system with additional deterministic norm‐bounded uncertainties. A delay‐dependent result is obtained which involves the solution of a simple linear matrix inequality. In this problem, a cost function is defined which is the expected value of the standard H_∞ performance cost with respect to the stochastic parameters. A practical example taken from the field of guidance control is given that demonstrates the applicability of the theory. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Robust H∞ control for networked systems with transmission delays and successive packet dropouts under stochastic sampling

This paper is concerned with the H_∞ performance analysis for networked control systems with transmission delays and successive packet dropouts under stochastic sampling. The parameter uncertainties are time‐varying norm‐bounded and appear in both the state and input matrices. If packet loss is considered the same as time delay, when models the networked control systems with successive packet dropouts and delays as ordinary linear system with input‐delay approach, due to sampling period is stochastic, then the delay caused by packet losses is a stochastic variable, which leads to difficulties in the stability analysis of the considered system. However, if we can transform the system with stochastic delay into a continuous system with stochastic parameter, we can solve the problem. In this paper, by assuming that the network packet loss rate and employing the information of probabilistic distribution of the time delays, the stochastic sampling system is transformed into a continuous‐time model with stochastic variable, which satisfies a Bernoulli distribution. By linear matrix inequality approach, sufficient conditions are obtained, which guarantee the robust mean‐square exponential stability of the system with an H_∞ performance. What's more, an H_∞ controller design procedure is then proposed, and a less conservative result is obtained by taking the probability into consideration. Finally, a numerical simulation example is employed to show the effectiveness of the obtained results. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Robust stability and H∞ control for uncertain discrete Markovian jump singular systems with mode‐dependent time‐delay

The robust stochastic stability, stabilization and H_∞ control for mode‐dependent time‐delay discrete Markovian jump singular systems with parameter uncertainties are discussed. Based on the restricted system equivalent (r.s.e.) transformation and by introducing new state vectors, the singular system is transformed into a standard linear system, and delay‐dependent linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) conditions for the mode‐dependent time‐delay discrete Markovian jump singular systems to be regular, causal and stochastically stable, and stochastically stable with γ‐disturbance attenuation are obtained, respectively. With these conditions, robust stabilization problem and robust H_∞ control problem are solved, and the LMIs sufficient conditions are obtained. A numerical example illustrates the effectiveness of the method given in the paper. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

On control for linear systems with interval time-varying delay

This paper deals with the problem of delay-dependent robust H_∞ control for linear time-delay systems with norm-bounded, and possibly time-varying, uncertainty. The time-delay is assumed to be a time-varying continuous function belonging to a given interval, which means that the lower and upper bounds for the time-varying delay are available, and no restriction on the derivative of the time-varying delay is needed, which allows the time-delay to be a fast time-varying function. Based on an integral inequality, which is introduced in this paper, and Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional approach, a delay-dependent bounded real lemma (BRL) is first established without using model transformation and bounding techniques on the related cross product terms. Then employing the obtained BRL, a delay-dependent condition for the existence of a state feedback controller, which ensures asymptotic stability and a prescribed H_∞ performance level of the closed-loop systems for all admissible uncertainties, is proposed in terms of a linear matrix inequality (LMI). A numerical example is also given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

LMI OPTIMIZATION APPROACH FOR DELAY‐DEPENDENT H∞ CONTROL OF TIME‐VARYING DELAY SYSTEMS

In this paper, the robust delay‐dependent H_∞ control for a class of uncertain systems with time‐varying delay is considered. An improved state feedback H_∞ control is proposed to minimize the H_∞‐norm bound via the LMI optimization approach. Based on the proposed result, delay‐dependent criteria are obtained without using the model transformation technique or bounded inequalities on cross product terms. The linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization approach is used to design the robust H_∞ state feedback control. Some numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the approach.

This paper considers the problems of robust non‐fragile stochastic stabilization and H_∞ control for uncertain time‐delay stochastic systems with time‐varying norm‐bounded parameter uncertainties in both the state and input matrices. Attention is focused on the design of memoryless state feedback controllers which are subject to norm‐bounded uncertainties. For both the cases of additive and multiplicative controller uncertainties, delay‐independent sufficient conditions for the solvability of the above problems are obtained. The desired state feedback controller can be constructed by solving a certain linear matrix inequality.     

Study on robust H �� filtering in networked environments

 This paper is concerned with the robust H_∞ filter problem for networked environments, which are subject to both transmission delay and packet dropouts randomly. By employing random series which have Bernoulli distributions taking value of 0 or 1, the data transmission model is obtained. Based on state augmentation and stochastic theory, the sufficient condition for robust stability with H_∞ constraints is derived for the filtering error system. The robust filter is designed in terms of feasibility of one certain linear matrix inequality (LMI), which is formed by adopting matrix congruence transformations. A numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed filtering method.

Robust H∞ control for uncertain discrete-time systems with time-varying delays via exponential output feedback controllers

This paper considers the problem of robust H_∞ control for uncertain discrete systems with time-varying delays. The system under consideration is subject to time-varying norm-bounded parameter uncertainties in both the state and measured output matrices. Attention is focused on the design of a full-order exponential stable dynamic output feedback controller which guarantees the exponential stability of the closed-loop system and reduces the effect of the disturbance input on the controlled output to a prescribed level for all admissible uncertainties. In terms of a linear matrix inequality (LMI), a sufficient condition for the solvability of this problem is presented, which is dependent on the size of the delay. When this LMI is feasible, the explicit expression of the desired output feedback controller is also given. Finally, an example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
