A more practical model of actuator faults than outage is considered. An LMI approach of designing reliable controller is presented for the case of actuator faults that can be modeled by a scaling factor. The resulting control systems are reliable in that they provide guaranteed asymptotic stability and H∞ performance when some control component (actuator) faults occur.

Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) techniques and stability theory of stochastic differential equations, a stochastic Lyapunov function method is adopted to design a state feedback fuzzy controller. The resulting closed-loop fuzzy system is robustly reliable stochastically stable, and the corresponding quadratic cost function is guaranteed to be no more than a certain upper bound for all admissible uncertainties, as well as different actuator fault cases. A sufficient condition of existence and design method of robust reliable guaranteed cost controller is presented.

The faults of each actuator occurs randomly and its failure rates are governed by a set of unrelated random variables satisfying certain probabilistic distribution. In terms of the probabilistic failures of each actuator and time-varying random delays, new fault model is proposed. Based on the new fuzzy model, reliable controller is designed and sufficient conditions for the exponentially mean square stability (EMSS) of T-S fuzzy systems are derived by using Lyapunov functional method and linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique. It should be noted that the obtained criteria depend on not only the size of the delay, but also the probability distribution of it. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

In order to achieve reliable and fast delivery of warning messages, this paper proposes a delay-aware and reliable broadcast protocol(DR-BP) based on transmit power control technique. First, a comprehensive model is derived to evaluate the transmission in vehicle-to-vehicle communications. This model considers the wireless channel fading, transmission delay and retransmissions characters occurring in the physical layer/medium access control(PHY/MAC) layer. Then, a local optimal relay selection mechanism based on the above model is designed. In DR-BP scheme, only the vehicle selected as the optimal relays can forward warning messages and the transmit power is time-varying. Finally, extensive simulations verify the performance of DR-BP under different traffic scenarios. Simulation results show that DR-BP outperforms the traditional slotted 1-persistence(S1P) and flooding scheme in terms of packets delivery ratio and transmission delay.展开更多

With the aid of enhanced linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, the non-convex optimization problem is transformed into convex LMI representations. The proposed coupling is eliminated by introducing slack variables. Moreover, a necessary and sufficient condition is derived for the mixed H2/H∞ flight tracking controller which not only stabilizes the controlled system but also satisfies the mixed H2/H∞ performance index in normal case and fault cases. The new enhanced LMI representations provide additional degrees of freedom to solve the non-convex optimization problem, and reduce the conservativeness of the controller design. Simulation results of the aero-data model in a research environment (ADMIRE) model show the advantages of the enhanced LMI approach.展开更多
