Optimal tracking performance of MIMO discrete‐time systems with communication constraints

The optimal tracking problem for multiple‐input multiple‐output linear‐time‐invariant discrete‐time systems with communication constraints in the feedback path is studied in this paper. The tracking performance is measured by the energy of the error signal between the output of the plant and the reference signal. The objective is to obtain an optimal tracking performance, attainable by all possible stabilizing compensators. It is shown that the optimal tracking performance consists of two parts, one depends on the nonminimum phase zeros and zero direction of the given plant, as well as the reference input signal direction, and the other depends on the nonminimum phase zeros, unstable poles, and pole direction of the given plant, as well as the bandwidth and additive white Gaussian noise of the communication channel. It is also shown that, if the constraint of the communication channel does not exist, the optimal tracking performance reduces to the existing tracking performance of the control system without communication constraints. A typical example is given to illustrate the theoretical results. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Optimal Performance in Tracking Stochastic Signal Under Disturbance Rejection

The analysis method of optimal tracking performance is proposed for multiple‐input multiple‐output (MIMO) linear time‐invariant (LTI) systems under disturbance rejection. An H₂ criterion of the error signal between the output of the plant and the reference signal is used as a measure for the tracking performance. Spectral factorization is applied to obtain the optimal solution of the system tracking error. The explicit expressions are derived for this minimal tracking error with respect to random reference signals under disturbance rejection. It is shown that the nonminimum phase zeros, the zero direction, the unstable poles, the pole direction of a given plant, statistical characteristics of the reference input signal, and disturbance signal have a negative effect on a feedback system's ability to reduce the system error with disturbance rejection. The results show that the optimal tracking performance will further be damaged because of disturbance rejection. Some typical examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results.     

A new admissibility condition of discrete-time singular systems with time-varying delays

This paper gives a novel delay-dependent admissibility condition of discrete-time singular systems with time-varying delays. For convenience, the time-varying delay is assumed to be the sum of delay lower bound and the integral multiples of a constant delay. Specially, if the constant delay is of unit length, the delay is an interval-like time-varying delay. The proposed admissibility condition is presented and expressed in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI) by Lyapunov approach. Generally, the uncertainty of time-varying delay would lead to conservatism. In this paper, this critical issue is tackled by accurately estimating the time-varying delay. Consequently, the proposed admissibility condition is less conservative than the existing results, which is demonstrated by a numerical example.     

保持几何特征的自适应弹性二次曲线模型

物体形状特征的准确提取往往受到图像获取、目标分割等过程中各种因素的影响,因而需要构造一种鲁棒的形状表现来保有其本质特征。揭示弹性二次曲线(EQW)模型中能量权重因子和样条重叠度因子与形状几何特性间的关系,提出一种自适应保持几何特征的EQW形状表现模型,并将该模型与交互式Live Wire算法相结合,应用至图像分割中,对于各种模态图像中的目标进行分割实验。直观上,本文方法能够在去除噪声同时较好地保持目标形状的显著特征;量化结果方面,交互式分割误差保持在较小稳定范围内,引入EQW模型带来的时间开销亦在可接受范围内。

超重力对燃烧合成Ti（C，N）-TiB2复合粉体的影响

以Ti和B4C为起始反应物，分别在常规和超重力条件下通过燃烧合成技术制备出Ti（C,N）-TiB2复合粉体，利用XRD和SEM对燃烧产物进行了表征，研究了起始组成和超重力条件对燃烧产物相组成和微观形貌的影响。结果表明，燃烧产物主要由Ti（C，N）和TiB2组成，通过改变起始配方中Ti／B4C的摩尔比，可以调节产物中Ti（C，N）和TiB2的相对含量。超重力条件下，反应物颗粒接触更加充分，碰撞更加频繁，因而晶粒形态发育更加完整，生成规则的多面体。     

美国大学教学评估及其对中国高等教育的启示

美国大学和学院，学生对教师教学进行有效性评估。不同大学对教学有不同要求和标准；美国学术界对教学评估体系利与弊展开过辩论，而学生和老师的背景特征可能引起偏见。美国学生对老师进行教学评估的体系，对中国高等教育教学可能有一定的他石意义，但是，评估体系的现实条件有差异，中国不应当照抄或照搬美国教学评估，尤其应该摒弃将教与学关系扭曲为买方和卖方关系的观念。取其精华而弃其糟粕，建立适应中国的教学评估体系才能提高高等教育质量。
