In this paper, we discuss an observer-based fault tolerant controller design for the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems with exogenous disturbance. To derive robust controller design conditions, we use $H_{\infty}$ design technique. The design conditions are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities. An illustrative example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.

The actuator's response delay, disturbance and measurement noise can often cause a significant error in the target tracking of an underwater vehicle. The first purpose of this paper is error analysis about motion of an underwater vehicle when the closed loop system has actuator and disturbance and noise. The underwater vehicle is simulated for cases of various disturbances. The second purpose is robust controller design for the underwater vehicle with parameter uncertainty. So, two robust control methods are applied for the underwater vehicle. One is standard $H_{\infty}$ control, and the other is time-varying sliding mode control with modified saturation function. Suboptimal design parameters for $H_{\infty}$ control, and design parameters for time-varying switching surfaces are provided Simulations for the two controllers are carried out and their performances are analyzed.lyzed.

In this paper, we consider the design of gam scheduled controllers for linear systems with input saturation. We obtain a reachable set and a control gain, which guarantees that the controls are never saturated inside this reachable set and that the $L_2$ gain is minimized, from matrix inequalities. This proposed gain scheduled control gives better performance than that of static control case, and we present the simulation results to show the usefulness of the proposed control.

In this paper, when a robust active noise controller for a small cavity to control the noise induced in the cavity is designed, the Graphical method based on the robust stability and performance requirements is studied. The problem of designing controller that achieve these robust performance conditions is related to minimizing the $H_{\infty}$ norm of the mixed sensitivity function by using $H_{\infty}$ control theory. Also, For design the controller, the loopshaping method which control the weight functions to satisfy the design specification without loss of a robust performance can be used. Therefore, we determined the acceptable design specification with the system characteristics of the small cavity and obtained its robust controller with the robust performance specifications by stability margin.

The Two-Mass Spring(TMS or Two-Inertia Resonance) system is one of the simplest models which generate a torsional vibration. In this system, it is required to design a controller achieving the control performance while suppressing the torsional vibration. In this paper, we compared and considered with the state feedback effects for the TMS system. By connecting each controller design to the state feedback control, we could predict each controller performances and decide weighting functions and parameters of LQ and $H_\infty$ controller.

This paper presents a new prototype of an engine mount for a passenger vehicle featuring ER(elector-rheological) fluids and piezoactuators. Conventional rubber mounts and various types of passive or semi-active hydraulic engine mounts have their own functional aims on the limited frequency band in the board engine operating frequency range. However, the proposed engine mount covers all frequency range of the engine operation. A mathematical model of the proposed engine mount is derived using the bond graph method which is inherently domain, the ER fluid is activated upon imposing electric field for vibration isolation while the piezoactuator. Computer control electric fluid for the ER fluid H.inf. cotrol technique is adopted for the piezoactuator. Computer simulation is undertaken in order to demonstrate isolation efficiency of the engine mount over wide operating frequency range.

${\mu}$-synthesis is applied to design a robust controller for a seeker scan loop system which has model uncertainty and is subject to a external disturbance due to abrupt missile maneuver. The issue of modelling a real-valued parametric uncertainty of a physical seeker scan loop system is discussed. The two-degree-of-frame control structure is employed to obtain better performance. It is shown that ${\mu}$-synthesis provides a superior framework for the robust control design of a seeker scan loop system which exhibits robust performance. The proposed robust control system satisfies design requirements, and especially shows good scanning performances for conical and rosette scan patterns despite parametric uncertainty in real system model.

In this paper, we consider the $H_{\infty}$ control of time-delayed linear systems with saturating actuators. The considered time-delay is a time-varying one having bounds on magnitude and time-derivative, and the control permits the predetermined degree of saturation. Based on two modified Lyapunov-Krasovskii(L-K) functionals, we derive a $H_{\infty}$ control in the form of linear matrix inequalities(LMI) having three non-convex design parameters. The result is dependent on the characteristics of time-delay, predetermined degree of saturation level, and bound of disturbance. Finally, we give a comparative example to show the effectiveness and usefulness of our result.

In this research an LMI based mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ controller for a Wheeled Inverted Pendulum is designed and a numerical simulation of that is carried out. The Wheeled Inverted Pendulum is a kind of an inverted pendulum that has two equivalent points. To keep that the naturally unstable equivalent point, a controller should control the wheels persistently. Dynamic equations of the Wheeled Inverted Pendulum are derived with considering inclined road that is one of the representative road conditions. A Linear Matrix Inequality method is used to construct a controller that is able to stabilize the Wheeled Inverted Pendulum with considering the inclined road condition aggressively. Various numerical simulations show that the LMI based controller is doing well on not only flat road but also inclined road condition.

A sliding mode fuzzy control (SMFC) algorithm is presented for vibration of large structures. Rule-base of the fuzzy inference engine is constructed based on the sliding mode control, which is one of the nonlinear control algorithms. Fuzziness of the controller makes the control system robust against the uncertainties in the system parameters and the input excitation. Non-linearity of the control rule makes the controller more effective than linear controllers. Design procedure based on the present fuzzy control is more convenient than those of the conventional algorithms based on complex mathematical analysis, such as linear quadratic regulator and sliding mode control(SMC). Robustness of presented controller is illustrated by examining the loop transfer function. For verification of the present algorithm, a numerical study is carried out on the benchmark problem initiated by the ASCE Committee on Structural Control. To achieve a high level of realism, various aspects are considered such as actuator-structure interaction, modeling error, sensor noise, actuator time delay, precision of the A/D and D/A converters, magnitude of control force, and order of control model. Performance of the SMFC is examined in comparison with those of other control algorithms such as $H_{mixed 2/{\infty}}$ optimal polynomial control, neural networks control, and SMC, which were reported by other researchers. The results indicate that the present SMFC is an efficient and attractive control method, since the vibration responses of the structure can be reduced very effectively and the design procedure is simple and convenient.
