An LMI approach to synthesis subject to almost asymptotic regulation constraints

A multi-objective controller synthesis problem is considered in which an output is to be regulated approximately by assuring a bound on the steady-state peak amplification in response to an infinite-energy disturbance, while also guaranteeing a desired level of performance measured in terms of the worst-case energy gain from a finite-energy input to a performance output. Relying on a characterization of the controllers with which almost asymptotic regulation is accomplished, the problem of guaranteeing the desired level of performance is reduced to solving a system of linear matrix inequalities subject to a set of linear equality constraints. Based on the solution of this system, a procedure is outlined for the construction of a suitable controller whose order is equal to the order of the plant plus the order of the exogenous system.     

control with limited communication and message losses

We propose an H^∞ approach to a remote control problem where the communication is constrained due to the use of a shared channel. The controller employs a periodic time sequencing scheme for message transmissions from multiple sensors and to multiple actuators of the system. It further takes into account the information on the random message losses that occur in the channel. An exact characterization for controller synthesis is obtained and is stated in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Furthermore, an analysis on the loss probabilities of the messages to accomplish stabilization is carried out. The results are illustrated through a numerical example.     

Model of Frequency Analysis in the Visual Cortex and the Shape from Texture Problem

This paper addresses the question: at the level of cortical cells present in the primary area V1, is the information sufficient to extract the local perspective from the texture? Starting from a model of complex cells in visual area V1, we propose a biologically plausible algorithm for frequency analysis applied to the shape from texture problem. First, specific log-normal filters are designed in replacement of the classical Gabor filters because of their theoretical properties and of their biological plausibility. These filters are separable in frequency and orientation and they better sample the image spectrum which makes them appropriate for any pattern analysis technique. A method to estimate the local frequency in the image, which discards the need to choose the best local scale, is designed. Based on this frequency analysis model, a local decomposition of the image into patches leads to the estimation of the local frequency variation which is used to solve the problem of recovering the shape from the texture. From the analytical relation between the local frequency and the geometrical parameters, under perspective projection, it is possible to recover the orientation and the shape of the original image. The accuracy of the method is evaluated and discussed on different kind of textures, both regular and irregular, with planar and curved surfaces and also on natural scenes and psychophysical stimuli. It compares favorably to the best existing methods, with in addition, a low computational cost. The biological plausibility of the model is finally discussed.

Multistable electro‐optical modes in ferroelectric liquid crystals

Abstract— Multistable electro‐optical modes exist under certain conditions in ferroelectric liquid‐crystal (FLC) cells, which means that any light‐transmission level can be memorized after the driving voltage is switched off. The multistability is responsible for three new electro‐optical modes with different shapes of the gray‐scale curve that can be either S‐shaped (double or single dependent upon the applied‐voltage pulse sequence and boundary conditions) or V‐shaped dependent upon boundary conditions and FLC cell parameters. The origin of these modes will be described.     

Controller synthesis with guaranteed closed-loop phase constraints

In this paper, we present an analysis and synthesis approach for guaranteeing that the phase of a single-input, single-output closed-loop transfer function is contained in the interval [−α,α] for a given α>0 at all frequencies. Specifically, we first derive a sufficient condition involving a frequency domain inequality for guaranteeing a given phase constraint. Next, we use the Kalman–Yakubovich–Popov theorem to derive an equivalent time domain condition. In the case where , we show that frequency and time domain sufficient conditions specialize to the positivity theorem. Furthermore, using linear matrix inequalities, we develop a controller synthesis approach for guaranteeing a phase constraint on the closed-loop transfer function. Finally, we extend this synthesis approach to address mixed gain and phase constraints on the closed-loop transfer function.
