An approach for minimizing tracking errors in linear time-invariant (LTI) single-input single-output (SISO) discrete-time systems with nonminimum phase (NMP) zeros using filtered basis functions (FBF) is studied. In the FBF method, the control input to the system is expressed as a linear combination of basis functions. The basis functions are forward filtered using the dynamics of the NMP system, and their coefficients are selected to minimize the error in tracking a given desired trajectory. Unlike comparable methods in the literature, the FBF method is shown to be effective in tracking any desired trajectory, irrespective of the location of NMP zeros in the z-plane. The stability of the method and boundedness of the control input and system output are discussed. The control designer is free to choose any suitable set of basis functions that satisfy the criteria discussed in this paper. However, two rudimentary basis functions, one in time domain and the other in frequency domain, are specifically highlighted. The effectiveness of the FBF method is illustrated and analyzed in comparison with the truncated series (TS) approximation method.

This paper extends to multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems a nonlinear method of simultaneous parameter and state estimation that appeared in the ASME JDSM&C (September, 1994), for single-input single-output (SISO) systems. The method is called pseudo-linear identification (PLID), and applies to stochastic linear time-invariant discrete-time systems. No assumptions are required about pole or zero locations; nor about relative degree, except that the system transfer functions must be strictly proper. In the earlier paper, proofs of optimality and convergence were given. Extensions of those proofs to the MIMO case are also given here.

An adaptive predictor that is optimal in the minimum mean-square error (MMSE) sense at each step is obtained for single-input, single-output (SISO) linear time-invariant discrete-time systems having general delay and white noise perturbation. The adaptive d-step-ahead predictor includes the uncertainty associated with the parameter and state estimates whereas conventional adaptive predictors, that are asymptotically optimal, ignore the uncertainty in the parameter estimates.

A graphical technique for finding all proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers that stabilize a given single-input-single-output (SISO) linear time-invariant (LTI) system of any order system with time delay has been solved. In this paper a method is introduced that finds all PID controllers that also satisfy an H∞ complementary sensitivity constraint. This problem can be solved by finding all PID controllers that simultaneously stabilize the closed-loop characteristic polynomial and satisfy constraints defined by a set of related complex polynomials. A key advantage of this procedure is the fact that it does not require the plant transfer function, only its frequency response.

In this paper we describe the design and implementation of a nonlinear adaptive disturbance rejection approach for single-input-single-output linear-time-invariant uncertain systems subject to sinusoidal disturbances with unknown amplitude and frequency. This is an extension of our earlier study to a more complicated plant, a two-degrees-of-freedom (2DOF) system representing a vibration absorber setting. The controller design is based on a single Lyapunov function incorporating both the error states and the update laws and, hence, global stability and improved transient performance are readily achieved. Utilizing only the system output, a virtual control input is used in place of non-measurable and unknown signals. The performance of the adaptation algorithm is demonstrated through real-time simulations, both for regulation and tracking, on a 2DOF system representing an active vibration absorber setup. It is shown that when the primary system is subjected to an unknown sinusoidal disturbance, the proposed controller in the absorber subsection completely suppresses the primary system vibration in the presence of unknown disturbance.

In this paper, linear time-invariant single-input single-output (SISO) systems that are stabilizable by a (linear) proportional and integral (PI) compensator are considered. For such systems a five-parameter nonlinear PI compensator is proposed. The parameters of the proposed compensator are tuned by solving an optimization problem. The optimization problem always has a solution. Additionally, a general non-linear PI compensator is proposed and is approximated by easy-to-compute compensators, for instance, a six-parameter nonlinear compensator. The parameters of the approximate compensators are tuned to satisfy an optimality condition. The superiority of the proposed nonlinear PI compensators over the linear PI compensator is discussed and is demonstrated for a feedback system.

In this paper, one shot operational matrix for repeated integration of the shifted Legendre polynomial basis vector is developed and double-shifted Legendre series is introduced to approximate functions of two independent variables. Then using these, systematic algorithms for the identification of linear time-invariant single input-single output continuous lumped and distributed parameter systems are presented. Illustrative examples are provided with satisfactory results.

The control of systems with uncertain dynamics and unpredictable disturbances has raised some challenging problems. This is particularly important when high system performance is to be guaranteed at all times. Recently, Time Delay Control has been suggested as an alternative control scheme. The proposed control system does not require an explicit plant model nor does it depend on the estimation of specific plant parameters. Rather, it combines adaptation with past observations to directly estimate the effect of the plant dynamics. This paper outlines the Time Delay Control law for a class of linear dynamic systems and then presents a sufficient condition for stability of linear uncertain systems with time delay. The ideas of Nyquist and Kharitonov are used in the development of a sufficient condition, which does not resort to using approximations for time delay. Like Nyquist, the condition depends on maps of the Nyquist path and, like Kharitonov, stability depends on four functions each yielding a stable system. In this paper we combine these ideas to determine the stability of systems where the Time Delay Controller is applied to single input single output, linear time-invariant plants whose coefficients are known to vary within certain defined intervals. The development is carried out in the context of Time Delay Control but it can be applied in more general cases. Two examples will illustrate the approach and the usefulness of the technique.

This paper studies the regulation performance limi- tation of delay-time systems. The performance is measured by the energy of the control input with respect to an impulse dis- turbance function. We first provide the analytical closed-form expression of the optimal performance for minimum phase case by reviewing the existing result. We then extend the problem to non-minimum phase case by exploiting the results of linear time- invariant discrete-time and delta domain cases.

The design and implementation of an adaptive disturbance rejection approach is presented for single-input-single-output linear-time-invariant uncertain mechanical systems subject to sinusoidal disturbances with unknown amplitudes and frequencies. The proposed technique suggests construction of a set of stabilizing tuning functions via a state estimate observer in a backstepping fashion to achieve asymptotic disturbance rejection. The tuning functions design is based on a single Lyapunov function incorporating both the error states and update law, and hence, global stability and improved transient performance are readily achieved. Utilizing only the system output, a virtual control input is used in place of non-measurable and unknown signals. The performance of the adaptation algorithm is demonstrated through both simulations and experiments for a single-degree-of-freedom system with unknown parameters and subject to an unknown sinusoidal disturbance. Significant matching between the simulation and experimental results is observed.
