Robust Disturbance Suppression For Nonlinear Systems Based On H-Infinity Control

Authors:

Steven W. Su, Brian D.O. Anderson, Thomas S. Brinsmead,

Volume: 1, Page 3013 Paper number 1814

Abstract:

The disturbance suppression problem for nonlinear systems is examined in this paper. We review the so-called nonstandard mixed sensitivity problem, which introduces an integrator to a selected weight, as well as the linear classical disturbance suppression problem and the linear H-infinity disturbance suppression problem. We extend this H-infinity problem to the nonlinear case, and present a method to reduce the order of the state feedback Hamilton-Jacobi PDE (Partial Differential Equation) for this nonlinear H-infinity problem by extending the concept of comprehensive stability . Finally, we investigate the structure of the output feedback H-infinity controller for disturbance suppression, and draw the conclusion that, as in the linear case, there must also be an integrator in the controller.

Robust Control of Nonlinear Systems by Estimating Time Variant Uncertainties

Authors:

Zhihua Qu,

Volume: 1, Page 3019 Paper number 1127

Abstract:

In this paper, robust control design is considered for nonlinear systems with time variant uncertainties. Instead of assuming that bounding function on uncertainties is either known or parameterizable in terms of unknown constants, uncertainties or their bounding function will be estimated. It is shown that bounded uncertainties from a known or partially known exo-system can be estimated as part of a globally stabilizing robust control. The proposed method extends the existing results of adaptive robust control, and it makes robust control more applicable by requiring less information on uncertainties.

Robust Stabilization of Nonlinear Uncertain Systems in the Presence of Input Unmodeled Dynamics

Authors:

Zhi Wang, Farshad Khorrami,

Volume: 1, Page 3025 Paper number 1988

Abstract:

In this paper, motivated by the recent results on control of nonlinear systems with input uncertainties and converse Lyapunov results with respect to an invariant set, we address the robust adaptive control issue in the presence of uncertainties including input unmodeled nonlinear dynamics. Nonlinear damping terms are introduced via backstepping to counteract the uncertainties and observer design is also employed to cancel the affects of the nonlinear unmodeled dynamics. To this end, nonlinear systems transformable to the Extended Strict Feedback Form with Input Uncertainties are considered. A robust adaptive controller is designed to achieve semiglobal stability with respect to an invariant set in the presence of uncertainties utilizing partial state feedback.

Robust H_(infinity) FIR Filtering for Uncertain Time-Varying Nonlinear Systems

Authors:

Hee-Seob Ryu, Kyung-Sang Yoo, Oh-Kyu Kwon, Dae-Woo Kim, Choon-Bae Park,

Volume: 1, Page 3031 Paper number 2011

Abstract:

This paper investigates the robust nonlinear H_(infinity) filter with FIR (Finite Impulse Response) structure for nonlinear discrete time-varying uncertain systems represented by the state-space model having parameter uncertainty. Firstly, the discrete-time nonlinear H_(infinity) FIR filter without parameter uncertainty is derived by using the equivalence relationship between the FIR filter and the recursive filter, which corresponds to the standard nonlinear H_(infinity) filter. Secondly, the robust H_(infinity) FIR filter is proposed for the discrete-time nonlinear uncertain systems. It is also derived from the equivalence relationship between the robust nonlinear H_(infinity) FIR filter and the conventional robust nonlinear H_(infinity) filter.

Nonlinear H_(infinity) Control via Sampled-Data Measurement Feedback: Time-Scale Conversion to Continuous Measurement Case

Authors:

Yuri V. Orlov, Leonardo Acho,

Volume: 1, Page 3037 Paper number 1078

Abstract:

Nonlinear H_(infinity) controller synthesis is presented for time-varying systems via sampled - data measurement feedback. The H_(infinity) control problem for a nonlinear system with a sampled-data measurement output is shown to be equivalent to the H_(infinity) control problem for a certain nonlinear system with a time-continuous measurement output. Special mathematical tools are developed to straightforwardly derive a local solution of the sampled-data measurement feedback H_(infinity) control problem from that of the time-continuous measurement feedback H_(infinity) control problem.

On The Design Of Reduced-Order H-Infinity Controllers For Nonaffine Nonlinear Systems

Authors:

Chee-Fai Yung, Chau-Hsien Liu,

Volume: 1, Page 3043 Paper number 49

Abstract:

Sufficient conditions are proposed for the existence of reduced-order (fixed-order) controllers solving the H-infinity control problem for nonaffine nonlinear systems. State-space formulas for such reduced-order H-infinity controllers are also derived in terms of the solutions to two standard Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs inequalities.

On Robust Nonlinear H-Infinity Control Problem with Matched Parameter Uncertainty

Authors:

Guoping Lu, Lam Fat Yeung, Daniel W. C. Ho, Yufan Zheng,

Volume: 1, Page 3049 Paper number 1106

Abstract:

This paper addresses robust H-infinity control problem for nonlinear systems with matched parameter uncertainty. The necessary and sufficient condition for existence of global strong robust H-infinity dynamic compensators is obtained based on nonlinear matrix inequality approach. It reduces a robust H-infinity control problems to a standard H-infinity problem for an auxiliary nonlinear system.
