In this paper, we directly derive a new discrete state space expression of the fractional order chaotic system based on the fractional order Grnwald-Letnikow(G-L) definition and design a variable structure controller with a new faster reachinglaw. The new reaching-law has the advantages of weakening the high frequency shake. Firstly, the condition of the discrete sliding mode surface is demonst...

Abstract: Although the general sliding mode control has the robust property, bounds on the disturbances and parameter variations should be known a priori to the designer of the control system. Fuzzy logic provides an effective way to design a controller of the system with disturbances and parameter variations. Therefore, combination of the best feature of the fuzzy logic control and the sliding...

In this paper, a robust tracking control method for automatic take-off and trajectory tracking of a quadrotor helicopter is presented. The designed controller includes two parts: a position controller and an attitude controller. The attitude controller is designed by using the sliding mode control (SMC) method to track the desired pitch and roll angles, which are the output of position controll...

In this paper, we compare three different control methodologies for helicopter autopilot design: linear robust multi-variable control, fuzzy logic control with evolutionary tuning, and nonlinear tracking control. The control design is based on nonlinear dynamic equations with a simplified thrust-torque generation model valid for hovering and low velocity flight. We verify the controller perform...

This paper gives a framework of supervisory control of boiler drum level system. The design and implementation of this process is done by the LabVIEW software. The data of the process variables Level from the boiler system need to be logged in a database for further analysis and supervisory control. A LabVIEW based data logging and supervisory control program simulates the process and the gener...

This paper deals with the control of an autonomous cascaded doubly-fed induction generator operating in a variable speed constant frequency mode. The proposed structure is a full stand-alone generating system dedicated to isolated grids in embedded systems or in small scale renewable energy systems such as windmill and hydropower generators. The study is focused on the CDFIG. Its behaviour agai...

This study demonstrates the modified projective synchronization in Chen-Lee chaotic system. The variable structure control technology is used to design the synchronization controller with input nonlinearity. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, a nonlinear controller and some generic sufficient conditions can be obtained to guarantee the modified projective synchronization, including synchroniza...

In this paper, an observer-based sampled-data controller of linear system is proposed for the wave energy converter. Based on the sampled-data observer, the controller is design. In the closed-loop system with controller, it obtains the norm inequality between the continuous-time state variable and the discrete-time one. Using the norm inequality, sufficient condition is derived for the asympto...

The conventional speed controllers for vector controlled induction motor drive(VC1MD) suffer from the problem of stability, besides, these controllers show either steady state error (PD controller) or sluggish response (Pi, PID) to the perturbation in reference setting or during load perturbation. This paper presents a fuzzy logic based speed controller and its design for vector controlled indu...
