Abstract This work investigates a functional estimation problem for single input single output linear and nonlinear systems, motivated by its enabling role in acceleration-based semi-active control. Solvability of a linear functional estimation problem is studied from a geometric approach, where the functional dynamics are derived, decomposed, and transformed to expose structural properties. This approach is extended to solve a challenging nonlinear functional observer problem, combining with the exact error linearization. Existence conditions of nonlinear functional observers are established. Simulation verifies existence conditions and demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed functional observer designs.

A procedure to design an asymptotically stable second-order sliding mode observer for a class of single input single output (SISO) nonlinear systems in normal form is presented. The observer converges to the system state in spite of the existence of bounded disturbances and parameter uncertainties affecting the system dynamics. At the same time, the observer estimates the disturbances without the use of an additional filter to recover the equivalent control. The observer design is modular; each module of the observer is applied to each equation of state of the plant. Because of this, the proposed observer can be applied to a broader class of dynamic systems. The performance of the observer is illustrated in numerical and experimental form.

This article presents a simple procedure that allows a practical design of fractional –[Formula: see text] controllers for single-input single-output linear time-invariant fractional-order systems subject to a constant time delay. The methodology is based on a geometric approach, which provides practical guidelines to design stabilizing and non-fragile PDμ controllers. The simplicity of the proposed approach is illustrated by considering several numerical examples encountered in the control literature. Moreover, with the aim of showing the performance of the PDμ over a classical PD controller, both controllers were implemented at the end of the article in an experimental test-bench consisting a teleoperated robotic system.

AbstractFree space optical (FSO) communication refers to a line of sight technology, which comprises optical source and detector to create a link without the use of physical connections. Similar to other wireless communication links, these are severely affected by losses that emerged due to atmospheric turbulence and lead to deteriorated intensity of the optical signal at the receiver. This impairment can be compensated easily by enhancing the transmitter power. However, increasing the transmitter power has some limitations as per radiation regulations. The requirement of high transmit power can be reduced by employing diversity methods. This paper presents, a wavelength-based diversity method with equal gain combining receiver, an effective technique to provide matching performance to single input single output at a comparatively low transmit power.

Emulation methodology of multiple clusters channels for evaluating wireless communication devices over-the-air (OTA) performance is investigated. This methodology has been used along with the implementation of the SIMO LTE standard. It consists of evaluating effective diversity gain (EDG) level of SIMO LTE-OFDM system for different channel models according to the received power by establishing an active link between the transmitter and the receiver. The measurement process is set up in a Reverberation Chamber (RC). The obtained results are compared to the reference case of single input-single output (SISO) in order to evaluate the real improvement attained by the implemented system.

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.
