Quasi-synchronous control of uncertain multiple electrohydraulic systems with prescribed performance constraint and input saturation

This article focuses on the high accuracy quasi-synchronous control issue of multiple electrohydraulic systems(MEHS).In order to overcome the negative effects of parameter uncertainty and external load interference of MEHS,a kind of finite-time disturbance observer(FTDO)via terminal sliding mode method is constructed based on the MEHS model to achieve fast and accuracy estimation and compensation ability.To avoid the differential explosion in backstepping iteration,the dynamic surface control is used in this paper to guarantee the follower electrohydraulic nodes synchronize to the leader motion with a better performance.Furthermore,a timevarying barrier Lyapunov function(tvBLF)is adopted during the controller design process to constraint the output tracking error of MEHS in a prescribed performance with time-varying exponential function.As the initial state condition is relax by tvBLF,the input saturation law is also adopted during the controller design process in this paper to restrain the surges of input signals,which can avoid the circuit and mechanical structure damage caused by the volatile input signal.An MEHS experimental bench is constructed to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical conclusions proposed in this paper and the advantages of the proposed conclusions in this paper are illustrated by a series of contradistinctive experimental results.

Quasi-synchronization of fractional-order complex networks with random coupling via quantized control

We investigate the quasi-synchronization of fractional-order complex networks(FCNs) with random coupling via quantized control. Firstly, based on the logarithmic quantizer theory and the Lyapunov stability theory, a new quantized feedback controller, which can make all nodes of complex networks quasi-synchronization and eliminate the disturbance of random coupling in the system state, is designed under non-delay conditions. Secondly, we extend the theoretical results under non-delay conditions to time-varying delay conditions and design another form of quantization feedback controller to ensure that the network achieves quasi-synchronization. Furthermore, the error bound of quasi-synchronization is obtained.Finally, we verify the accuracy of our results using two numerical simulation examples.

Design of Automatic Quasi-synchronizing Device in Rural Small Hydropower Station

Generator synchronization is an important and frequent operation in rural small hydropower station. In order to ensure that generator can be paralleled in the grid automatically, efficiently, and stably in the rural small hydropower station whose parallel in operation still needs to be accomplished manually. This paper described an automatic quasi-synchronizing device, based on 89C52 Single-chip Microcomputer （SCM）. Its hardware includes three modules and its software is structuralized. The device structure is simple, and its reliability is high and the maintenance is easy. Besides, convenient Human Machine Interface （HMI） makes the parameter setting simple and flexible

New constructions of quaternary low correlation zone sequence sets

Sequence sets with low correlation have very important applications in modern communication systems. As in quasi-synchronous code-division multiple access(QS-CDMA) system, sequence sets with low correlation zone(LCZ) perform better than other well-known sequence sets. Furthermore, binary or quaternary sequence sets are preferred because of their easy implementation. In this paper, based on the inverse Gray mapping and special binary sequence pairs, new quaternary LCZ sequence sets were constructed. In the LCZ, the maximum of the nontrivial autocorrelation and crosscorrelation values is 1 which show that the QS-CDMA system used the new sequences sets can control the interference in a very low level.
