First, a Takagi-Sugeno （T-S） fuzzy model based on the fuzzy cluster algorithm and the orthogonalleast square method is constructed to approach the nonlinear system. Since its consequence is linear, it can divide the nonlinear system into a number of linear or nearly linear subsystems. For this T-S fuzzy model, a GPC algorithm with input constraints is presented. This strategy takes into account all the constraints of the control signal and its increment, and does not require the calculation of the Diophantine equations. So it needs only a small computer memory and the computational speed is high. The simulation results show a good performance for the nonlinear systems.展开更多

Clock-driven sensors, event-driven controller, and clock-driven actuators are required in this framework. A queuing strategy is proposed to overcome the network induced delay. Without redesigning, the proposed framework enables the existing GPC controller to be used in a network environment. It also does not require clock synchronization and is only slightly affected by bad network condition such as package loss. Various experiments are designed over the real network to test the proposed approach, which verify that the proposed approach can stabilize the Networked Control System (NCS) and is robust.展开更多

Thus, it is imperative to optimize production processes. Faced with this scenario, multivariable predictive control of processes has been presented as a powerful alternative to achieve these goals. Moreover, the rationale for implementation of advanced control and subsequent analysis of its post-match performance also focus on the benefits that this tool brings to the plant. It is therefore essential to establish a methodology for analysis, based on clear and measurable criteria.

From the system theoretic point of view, it is marked by stochastic disturbance, long delays, and parameter variation. So, a carding process is difficult to control with traditional control algorithms (such as PID). In this paper, a weighted adaptive generalized predictive control (GPC) law was developed to control such a process. The experimental results show that GPC autoleveller controller could greatly reduce the sliver’s standard deviation and reject disturbance.展开更多
