LMI Approach to Robust H_∞/H_2 Controller Design with Regional Poles Constraint of a Pump-Motor System

The time domain guideposts requirements of a pump-motor system is transfered into a series of constraints which express the robust performance upper bound and regional poles limits of the closed loop system. Then the servo system control problem is transferred into the problem of robust performance optimizing under regional poles constrains described by linear matrix inequality （LMI）. These LMIs are easy to solve through the Matlab LMI-toolbox. Simulations indicate that the controller has excellent dynamic, static and disturbance rejection performance, and the control system is robust and has perfect H2 performance to the bounded external torque disturbance.

A new semi-active suspension control strategy through mixed H_2/H_∞ robust technique

A new semi-active suspension control strategy through mixed H2/H∞ robust technique was developed due to its flexibility and robustness to model uncertainties.A full car model with seven degrees of freedom was established to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new control approach.Magneto-rheological(MR) dampers were designed,manufactured and characterized as available semi-active actuators in the developed semi-active suspension system.The four independent mixed H2/H∞ controllers were devised in order to perform a distributed semi-active control system in the vehicle by which the response velocity and reliability can be improved significantly.The performance of the proposed new approach was investigated in time and frequency domains.A good balance between vehicle's comfort and road holding was achieved.An effective and practical control strategy for semi-active suspension system was thus obtained.This new approach exhibits some advantages in implementation,performance flexibility and robustness compared to existing methods.

Robust H_∞ and H_2 Static Output Feedback Control of Discrete-time Piecewise Affine Singular Systems with Norm-bounded Uncertainties

This paper is concerned with the problem of designing robust H∞and H2static output feedback controllers for a class of discrete-time piecewise-affine singular systems with norm-bounded time-varying parameters uncertainties. Based on a piecewise singular Lyapunov function combined with S-procedure,Projection lemma and some matrix inequality convexifying techniques,sufficient conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities are given for the existence of an output-feedback controller for the discrete-time piecewiseaffine singular systems with a prescribed H∞disturbance attenuation level,and the H2norm is smaller than a given positive number. It is shown that the controller gains can be obtained by solving a family of LMIs parameterized by one or two scalar variables. The numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design methods.

H_∞ Robust Fault-Tolerant Controller Design for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle’s Navigation Control System

In order to improve the security and reliability for autonomous underwater vehicle （AUV） navigation, an H∞ robust fault-tolerant controller was designed after analyzing variations in state-feedback gain Operating conditions and the design method were then analyzed so that the control problem could be expressed as a mathematical optimization problem. This permitted the use of linear matrix inequalities （LMI） to solve for the Hv controller for the system. When considering different actuator failures, these conditions were then also mathematically expressed, allowing the H∞ robust controller to solve for these events and thus be fault-tolerant. Finally, simulation results showed that the H∞ robust fault-tolerant controller could provide precise AUV navigation control with strong robustness.

Robust H_∞ control for aseismic structures with uncertainties in model parameters

This paper presents a robust H∞ output feedback control approach for structural systems with uncertainties in model parameters by using available acceleration measurements and proposes conditions for the existence of such a robust output feedback controller. The uncertainties of structural stiffness, damping and mass parameters are assumed to be norm-bounded. The proposed control approach is formulated within the framework of linear matrix inequalities, for which existing convex optimization techniques, such as the LM1 toolbox in MATLAB, can be used effectively and conveniently. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed robust H∞ strategy, a six-story building was subjected both to the 1940 E1 Centro earthquake record and to a suddenly applied Kanai-Tajimi filtered white noise random excitation. The results show that the proposed robust H∞ controller provides satisfactory results with or without variation of the structural stiffness, damping and mass parameters.

Finally, a numerical example is provided to demonstrate the application of the proposed method.

A numerical example is also given to illustrate the design procedures and their effectiveness.

Improved Results on Robust H_∞ Control of Uncertain Discrete-time Systems with Time-varying Delay

In this paper, the robust H∞ control problem for uncertain discrete-time systems with time-varying state delay is con- sidered. Based on the Lyapunov functional method, and by resorting to the new technique for estimating the upper bound of the difference of the Lyapunov functional, a new less conservative sufficient condition for the existence of a robust H∞ controller is obtained. Moreover, the cone complementary linearisation procedure is employed to solve the nonconvex feasibility problem. Finally, several numerical examples are presented to show the effectiveness and less conservativeness of the proposed method.

The problem of fuzzy modeling for state and input time-delays systems with a class of nonlinear uncertainties by fuzzy T-S model is addressed.By using the linear matrix inequality（LMI） method, the problem of fuzzy robust H ∞ controller design for the system is studied.Assuming that the nonlinear uncertain functions in the model considered are gain-bounded, a sufficient condition for the robustly asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system is obtained via Lyapunov stability theory.By solving the LMI, a feedback control law which guarantees the robustly asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system is constructed and the effect of the disturbance input on the controlled output is ruduced to a prescribed level.

This paper describes the synthesis of robust and non-fragile H∞ state feedback controllers for a class of uncertain jump linear systems with Markovian jumping parameters and state multiplicative noises. Under the assumption of a complete access to the norm-bounds of the system uncertainties and controller gain variations, sufficient conditions on the existence of robust stochastic stability and γ-disturbance attenuation H∞ property are presented. A key feature of this scheme is that the gain matrices of controller are only based on It, the observed projection of the current regime rt.

For all admissible uncertainties and delays, the controller guarantees not only the asymptotic stability of the system but also the prescribed H∞ attenuation level. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed design method is demonstrated by a numerical example.

Then based on the condition, a delay-dependent robust Hoo controller design scheme is developed in term of a convex algorithm. Finally, examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

For the appearance of the additive perturbation of controller gain when the controller parameter has minute adjustment at the initial running stage of system,to avoid the adverse effects,this paper investigates the mixed H_2/H_∞ state feedback attitude control problem of microsatellite based on extended LMI method.Firstly,the microsatellite attitude control system is established and transformed into corresponding state space form.Then,without the equivalence restriction of the two Lyapunov variables of H_2 and H∞performance,this paper introduces additional variables to design the mixed H_2/H_∞ control method based on LMI which can also reduce the conservatives.Finally,numerical simulations are analyzed to show that the proposed method can make the satellite stable within 20 s whether there is additive perturbation of the controller gain or not.The comparative analysis of the simulation results between extended LMI method and traditional LMI method also demonstrates the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method in this paper.

We scrutinize the problem of robust H∞control for a class of Markovian jump uncertain systems with interval timevarying and distributed delays.

The advantage of the proposed method is illustrated by numerical examples. The results are also compared with the existing results to show the less conservativeness.

Soft initial-rotation and H_∞ robust constant rotational speed control for rotational MEMS gyro

A novel soft initiai-rotation control system and an H∞ robust constant rotational speed controller （RCRSC） for a rotational MEMS （micro-electro-mechanical system） gyro are presented. The soft initial-rotation control system can prevent the possible tumbling down of the suspended rotor and ensure a smooth and fast initial-rotation process. After the initial-rotation process, in order to maintain the rotational speed accurately constant, the RCRSC is acquired through the mixed sensitivity design approach. Simulation results show that the actuation voltage disturbances from the internal carrier waves in the gyro is reduced by more than 15.3 dB, and the speed fluctuations due to typical external vibrations ranging from 10 Hz to 200 Hz can also be restricted to 10^-3 rad/s order.
