This article investigates the robust stabilization of the rotational subsystem of a quadrotor against external inputs (disturbances, noises, and parametric uncertainties) by the LFT-based LPV technique. By establishing the LPV attitude model, the LPV robust controller is designed for the system. The weighting functions are computed by Cuckoo Search, a meta-heuristic optimization algorithm. Besides, the input saturations are also taken into account through the Anti-Windup compensation technique. Simulation results show the robustness of the closed-loop system against disturbances, measurement noises, and the parametric uncertainties.

This paper deals with the design and evaluation of robust excitation controller for a single-machine infinite-bus power system. The design of the regulator guarantees the stability of the closed loop system and ensures the output voltage is maintained within an acceptable threshold. In addition, it damps out local mode oscillations for small signal disturbances. The designed robust controller is also analyzed under change in step input and disturbance, which limits the heavy oscillations on the speed ω and voltage. Glover-McFarlane loop shaping algorithm is applied in designing the robust excitation controller. Two different techniques such as Optimal control and mixed sensitivity approach is used in this paper. The performance of the AVR was analyzed and compared with IEEE type2 Exciter.

In this paper, an adaptive robust controller with uniform robust exact differentiator has been proposed for a class of nonlinear systems with structured and unstructured uncertainties. The adaptive robust controller is integrated with an uniform robust differentiator to handle the problem of the incalculable part of the derivative of virtual controls and the differential explosion happened in backstepping techniques. The stability of the closed loop system is demonstrated via Lyapunov method ensuring a prescribed transient and tracking performance. Simulation and experimental results are carried out to verify the advantages of the proposed method.

Loss Of Actuator Effectiveness

This paper investigates the design of spacecraft attitude stabilization controllers that are robust against actuator faults and external disturbances. A nominal controller is developed initially, using the adaptive backstepping technique, to stabilize asymptotically the spacecraft attitude when the actuators are fault-free. Additive faults and the partial loss of actuator effectiveness are considered simultaneously and an auxiliary controller is designed in addition to the nominal controller to compensate for the system faults. This auxiliary controller does not use any fault detection and isolation mechanism to detect, separate, and identify the actuator faults online. The attitude orientation and angular velocity of the closed-loop system asymptotically converge to zero despite actuator faults providing the nominal attitude system is asymptotically stable. Numerical simulation results are presented that demonstrate the closed-loop performance benefits of the proposed control law and illustrate its robustness to external disturbances and actuator faults.

Immersion And Invariance

The article presents a new non-certainty-equivalent adaptive (NCEA) longitudinal autopilot for the control of a missile based on the immersion and invariance theory. The interest here is to control the angle of attack of the missile in the presence of large parametric uncertainties. For the derivation of the control law, a backstepping design procedure is used. At each step of the design, certain filtered signals are generated for the synthesis of a stabilizing control signal and a parameter estimator. Using Lyapunov stability analysis, it is shown that in the closed-loop system, trajectory control of the angle of attack is accomplished, and the trajectories of the system are attracted to certain manifold in the space of state variables and parameter errors. For stability in the closed-loop system, an explicit analytical relation involving the controller gains is obtained. It may be pointed out that recently an adaptive autopilot based on the immersion and inversion theory has been designed, but it has stringent requirements because for its synthesis, the derivatives of the Mach number and angle of attack must be known, and a large number of parameters must be updated. The derived control system of this article is synthesized using only the state variables, and its identifier is of lower order. A traditional certainty-equivalent adaptive autopilot is also presented for comparison. Simulation results are obtained which show that the designed NCEA control system can accomplish angle of attack control despite large parametric uncertainties; and it can give better tracking performance than the traditional controller.

This paper investigates an H∞ robust controller for improving the measurement accuracy of the Optical Voltage Transducer with noise and parameter uncertainty. Firstly, the optical voltage transducer based on closed-loop detection is analyzed, and the model of the system is established concerning noise and uncertainty. Secondly, according to the model, this paper is theoretically devoted to the study of the Robust control for meeting the design target, while guarantees that the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable. Furthermore, we give a design criterion in terms of linear matrix inequality for the Robust control in the presence of noise and uncertainty. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the robust controller.

In this paper, an adaptive robust stabilization algorithm is presented for a class of non-linear systems with mismatched uncertainties. In this regard, a new controller based on the Lyapunov theory is proposed in order to overcome the problem of stabilizing non-linear time-varying systems with mismatched uncertainties. This method is such that the stability of the closed-loop system is guaranteed in the absence of the triangularity assumption. The proposed approach leads to asymptotic convergence of the states of the closed-loop system to zero for unknown but bounded uncertainties. Subsequently, this method is modified so that all the signals in the closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded. Eventually, numerical simulations support the effectiveness of the given algorithm.

The Stability

In this paper, a robust fixed-gain linear output pressure controller is designed for a double-rod electrohydrostatic actuator using quantitative feedback theory (QFT). First, the family of frequency responses of the system is identified by applying an advanced form of fast Fourier transform on the open-loop input–output experimental data. This approach results in realistic frequency responses of the system, which prevents the generation of unnecessary large QFT templates, and consequently contributes to the design of a low-order QFT controller. The designed controller provides desired transient responses, desired tracking bandwidth, robust stability, and disturbance rejection for the closed-loop system. Experimental results confirm the desired performance met by the QFT controller. Then, the nonlinear stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed considering the friction and leakage, and in the presence of parametric uncertainties. For this analysis, Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy modeling and its stability theory are employed. The T–S fuzzy model is derived for the closed-loop system and the stability conditions are presented as linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). LMIs are found feasible and thus the stability of the closed-loop system is proven for a wide range of parametric uncertainties and in the presence of friction and leakages.

This paper proposes a robust optimal attitude control design for multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) uncertain hexarotor micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) in the presence of parametric uncertainties, external time-varying disturbances, nonlinear dynamics, and coupling. The parametric uncertainties, external time-varying disturbances, nonlinear dynamics, and coupling are treated as the total disturbance in the proposed design. The proposed controller is achieved in two simple steps. First, an optimal linear-quadratic regulator (LQR) controller is designed to guarantee that the nominal closed-loop system is asymptotically stable without considering the total disturbance. After that, a disturbance observer is integrated into the closed-loop system to estimate the total disturbance acting on the system. The total disturbance is compensated by a compensation input based on the estimated total disturbance. Robust properties analysis is given to prove that the state is ultimately bounded in specified boundaries. Simulation results illustrate the robustness of the disturbance observer-based optimal attitude control design for hovering and aggressive flight missions in the presence of the total disturbance.
