An optimal linear feedback controller designed for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems with nonquadratic performance criteria by a non-Gaussian approach is presented. The non-Gaussian method is developed through expressing the unknown stationary output density function as a weighted sum of the Gaussian densities with undetermined parameters. With the aid of a Gaussian-sum density, the optimal feedback gain for a control system with complete state information is derived. By assuming that the separation principle is valid for the class of stochastic systems, a nonlinear precomputed-gain filter is then implemented. The method is illustrated by a Duffing-type control system and the performance of a linear feedback controller designed through both quadratic and nonquadratic performance indices is compared.

Feedback Linearizable Systems

This paper develops a stabilizing observer-based feedback linearizing controller for a single-axis electromagnetic suspension. The controller uses only the measured output of the system, and is shown to be robust with respect to parameter uncertainty. The controller differs from other robust feedback linearizing controllers that have appeared in recent literature, because it is continuous, and non-adaptive. Lyapunov’s second method is used to prove stability and robustness of the controller. The controller has a simple structure and its gains are determined by solving two weakly coupled Riccati equations. Numerical simulations are performed to compare a linear feedback controller and the observer-based feedback linearizing controller. Results obtained demonstrate that the nonlinear controller yields superior performance when compared with the linear feedback controller. The controller synthesis technique developed in this paper is applicable to other fully feedback linearizable systems, not just electromagnetic suspensions.

Natural Decomposition

A new technique was presented that facilitates design of independent full-state feedback controllers at the subsystem levels. Different types of local controllers, for example, eigenvalue assignment, robust, optimal (in some sense L1, H2, H∞, ...) may be used to control different subsystems. This feature has not been available for any known linear feedback controller design. In the second part of the paper, we specialize the results obtained to the three time-scale linear systems (singularly perturbed control systems) that have natural decomposition into slow, fast, and very fast subsystems. The proposed technique eliminates numerical ill-condition of the original three-time scale problems.

The dynamics of fractional-order systems have attracted increasing attention in recent years. In this paper, we study the chaotic behaviors in a fractional-order modified van der Pol oscillator. We find that chaos exists in the fractional-order modified van der Pol oscillator with order less than 3. In addition, the lowest order we find for chaos to exist in such system is 2.4. Finally, a simple, but effective, linear feedback controller is also designed to stabilize the fractional order chaotic van der Pol oscillator.
