Recent Advances in Robust Control Theory

چکیده

The problem of modeling-uncertainties that may not conform to assumed prior bounds is considered from an adaptive control perspective, but without the standard assumptions of adaptive control. A supervisory control architecture is employed, based on the data-driven logic of unfalsification. The supervisory controller modifies or replaces controllers when sensor data falsifies the hypothesis that the currently active controller is insufficiently robust to satisfy performance goals. The resultant unfalsified adaptive control law responds rapidly and precisely with guaranteed convergence. No assumptions about the plant are required beyond the availability of at least one candidate controller capable of robustly meeting performance goals. Potential applications include aircraft stability augmentation systems, highly maneuverable aircraft design, missile guidance systems, and precision pointing and tracking systems. Such designs will be better able to more reliably compensate for battle damage, equipment failures and other changing circumstances. “It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories instead of theories to suit facts.” Sherlock Holmes Arthur Conan Doyle

Definition of General Operator Space and The s-gap Metric for Measuring Robust Stability of Control Systems with Nonlinear Dynamics

In the recent decades, metrics have been introduced as mathematical tools to determine the robust stability of the closed loop control systems. However, the metrics drawback is their limited applications in the closed loop control systems with nonlinear dynamics. As a solution in the literature, applying the metric theories to the linearized models is suggested. In this paper, we show that usin...

ON THE FUZZY SET THEORY AND AGGREGATION FUNCTIONS: HISTORY AND SOME RECENT ADVANCES

Several fuzzy connectives, including those proposed by Lotfi Zadeh, can be seen as linear extensions of the Boolean connectives from the scale ${0,1}$ into the scale $[0,1]$. We discuss these extensions, in particular, we focus on the dualities arising from the Boolean dualities. These dualities allow to transfer the results from some particular class of extended Boolean functions, e.g., from c...

Robust Model for Networked Control System with Packet Loss

The Networked Control System in modern control widely uses to decrease the implementation cost and increasing the performance. NCS in addition to its advantages is inevitable. Nevertheless they suffer of some limitations and deficiencies. Packet loss is one of the main limitations which affect the control system in different conditions and finally may lead to system instability. For this reason...

Development of a Robust Observer for General Form Nonlinear System: Theory, Design and Implementation

The problem of observer design for nonlinear systems has got great attention in the recent literature. The nonlinear observer has been a topic of interest in control theory. In this research, a modified robust sliding-mode observer (SMO) is designed to accurately estimate the state variables of nonlinear systems in the presence of disturbances and model uncertainties. The observer has a simple ...
