In this paper we propose a controller design method, called Quasi-LQG/$H_{\infty}$/LTR for nonlinear servo systems with hard nonlinearities such as Coulomb friction, dead-zone. Introducing the RIDF method to model Coulomb friction and dead-zone, the statistically linearized system is built. Then, we consider $H_{\infty}$ performance constraint for the optimization of statistically linearized systems, by replacing a covariance Lyapunov equation into a modified Riccati equation of which solution leads to an upper bound of the LQG performance. As a result, the nonlinear correction term is included in coupled Riccati equation, which is generally very difficult to thave a numerical solution. To solve this problem, we use the modified loop shaping technique and show some analytic proofs on LTR condition. Finally, the Quasi-LQG/$H_{\infty}$/LTR controller for a nonlinear system is synthesized by inverse random input describing function techniques (ITIDF). It is shown that the proposed design method has a better performance robustness to the hard nonlinearity than LQG/$H_{\infty}$/LTR method via simulations and experiments for the timing-belt driving servo system that contains the Coulomb friction and dead-zone.

The paper is concerned with $H_{\infty}$ filtering for descriptor systems. A necessary and sufficient condition is established in terms of linear matrix inequalities(LMIs) for the existence of normal filters such that the error systems are admissible and the transfer function from the disturbance to the filtering error output satisfies a prescribed $H_{\infty}$-norm bound constraint. When these LMIs are feasible, an explicit parameterization expression of all desired normal filter is given. All these results are yielded without decomposing the original descriptor systems, which makes the filter design procedure simple and direct. Finally, a numerical example is derived to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed approach.

In this paper, the genetic algorithm is used to design a mixed H₂/ H/sub ∞/ controller Two kinds of controller forms, Youla's form and the general form, are considered to design a mixed H₂/ H/sub ∞/ controller. Efficient searching methods are sought to minimize the given H₂cost function under the H∞ constraint. It is verified by an example that the developed algorithm can provide stable results in the region where unstable results are shown by the conventional gradient method.

This paper deals with a robust mixed ${H_2}/{H_{\infty}}$ filter design problem for a nonlinear dynamic system modeled as a T-S fuzzy system. Integral quadratic constraints are used to describe various kinds of uncertainties of the plant. A sufficient condition for solvability is given in terms of linear matrix inequality problem which can be efficiently solved using a convex optimization technique. In order to demonstrate the Proposed method, a numerical design example is provided.

This paper presents a method for designing robust fuzzy $H^{\infty}$ controllers which stabilize nonlinear systems with parameter uncertainty adn guarantee an induced $L_{2}$ norm bound constraint on disturbance attenuation for all admissible uncertainties. Takagi and Sugeno's fuzzy models with uncertainty are used as the model for the uncertain nonlinear systems. Fuzzy control systems utilize the concept of so-called parallel distributed compensation(PDC). Using a single quadratic Lyapunov function, the stability condition satisfying decay rate and disturbance attenuation condition for Takagi and Sugeno's fuzzy model with parameter uncertainty are discussed. A sufficient condition for the existence of robust fuzzy $H^{\infty}$ controllers is then presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities(LMIs). Finally, design examples of robust fuzzy $H^{\infty}$ controllers for uncertain nonlinear systems are presented.

This paper proposes a mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ optimal PID controller with a genetic algorithm based on the dynamic model of a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor and applies it to speed control. In the dynamic model of the BLDC motor with perturbation, the proposed controller guarantees arobust and optimal tracking performance to the desired speed of the BLDC motor. A genetic algorithm was used to obtain parameters for the PID controller that satisfy the mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ constraint. To implement the proposed controller, a control system based on PIC18F4431 was developed. Numerical and experimental results are shown to prove that the performance of the proposed controller was better than that of the optimal PID controller.

This paper proposes an optimum design problem of structural and control systems. taking a 3-D truss structure as an example. The structure is supposed to be subjected to initial static loads and time-varying disturbances. The structure is controlled by a state feedback $H_{\infty}$ controller to suppress the effect of the disturbances. The design variables are the cross sectional areas of truss members. The structural objective function is the structural weight. As the control objective, we consider two types of performance indices. The first function represents the effect of the initial loads. The second one is the norm of the feedback gain. These objective functions are in conflict with each other. Then, first, two control objective functions are transformed into one control objective by the weighting method. Next, the structural objective is treated as the constraint. By introducing the second control objective which considers the magnitude of the feedback gain, we can per limn the design which is robust in modeling errors.

In this paper, a robust filter is proposed to effectively estimate the system states in the case where system model uncertainties as well as disturbances are present. The proposed robust filter is constructed based on the linear approximation methods for a general nonlinear uncertain system with an integral quadratic constraint. We also derive the important characteristic of the proposed filter, a modified $H_{\infty}$ performance index. Analysis results show that the proposed filter has robustness against disturbances, such as process and measurement noises, and against parameter uncertainties. Simulation results show that the proposed filter effectively improves the performance.

In this paper, we consider the design of $H_\infty$ high-gain state feedback control for time-delayed linear systems with limited actuator capacities. The high-gain control means that the control permits the predetermined degree of saturation. Based on new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, we derive a result in the form of matrix inequalities. The matrix inequalities are consisted of LMIs those confirm the positive definiteness of Lyapunov- Krasovskii functional, satisfaction of predetermined degree of saturation, reachable set and $L_2$ gain constraint. The result is dependent on the bound of time-delay and its rate, predetermined degree of saturation, actuator capacity, and the allowed size of disturbances. Finally, we give a numerical example to show the effectiveness and usefulness of our result.
