This paper deals with the trajectory tracking control of wheeled mobile robots with input constraint. The proposed method converts the trajectory tracking problem to the system stability problem using the control inputs composed of feedforward and feedback terms, and then, by using Taylor series, nonlinear terms in origin system are transformed into polynomial equations. The composed system model can make it possible to obtain the control inputs using numerical tool named as SOSTOOL. From the simulation results, the mobile robot can track the reference trajectory well and can have faster convergence rate of the trajectory errors than the existing nonlinear control method. By using the proposed method, we can easily obtain the control input for nonlinear systems with input constraint.

This paper proposes a dynamic compensation scheme for input-constrained feedback linearizable nonlinear systems to cope with the windup phenomenon. Given a feedback linearizing controller for such a nonlinear system designed without considering its input constraint, an additional dynamic compensator is proposed to account for the constraint. This dynamic anti-windup is based on the minimization of a reasonable performance index, and some stability properties of the resulting closed-loop are presented.

Multi-code code division multiple access(MC-CDMA) 시스템은 다수의 코드 사용으로 인한 용량의 증가를 통해 다양한 속도, 다양한 품질의 서비스를 제공할 수 있다는 장점을 갖는다 그러나, 여러 개의 코드들이 합쳐지면서 PAPR(Peak to Average Power Ratio)이 크게 증가되므로 비선형 왜곡에 의한 시스템 성능이 크게 저하되고, 이를 위해 HPA(High Power Amplifier)에서 많은 양의 back-off를 해야 하므로 큰 전력 손실이 나타난다. 본 논문에서는 들어오는 정보 데이터에 상응하는, 즉 입력 데이터의 상관 관계에 의한 constraint code의 삽입함으로써 PAPR을 효율적으로 낮출 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. PAPR 저감 효과는 사용된 constraint code의 길이와 index에 의존하며, PAPR 저감 효과와 constraint code의 길이 사이에 trade-off가 존재한다. HPA 및 AWGN 채널을 고려한 시뮬레이션 결과에서, 1) Input back-off 없이 가능한 모든 constraint code를 사용해 신호를 선택한 경우와 2) 약간의 input back-off와 몇 가지 constraint code만을 이용해 신호를 선택한 경우에서, BER성능이 선형 HPA를 사용한 OFDM의 성능과 거의 같게 나타남을 확인할 수 있다.

We propose an efficient minimum-time cornering motion planning algorithms for differential-driven wheeled mobile robots with motor control input constraint, under piecewise constant control input sections. First, we established mobile robot's kinematics and dynamics including motors, divided the cornering trajectory for collision-free into one translational section, followed by one rotational section with angular acceleration, and finally the other rotational section with angular deceleration. We constructed an efficient motion planning algorithm satisfying the bang-bang principle. Various simulations and experiments reveal the performance of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, a linear matrix inequality(LMI)-based robust control method, which combines model predictive control(MPC) with the feedback linearization(FL), is presented for constrained nonlinear systems with parameter uncertainty. The design procedures consist of the following 3 steps: Polytopic description of nonlinear system with a parameter uncertainty via FL, Mapping of actual input constraint by FL into constraint on new input of linearized system, Optimization of the constrained MPC problem based on LMI. To verify the performance and usefulness of the control method proposed in this paper, some simulations with application to a flexible single link manipulator are performed.

This paper considers a state set estimation (SSE) based model predictive control (MPC) for linear parameter- varying (LPV) systems with input constraint. We estimate, at each time instant, a feasible set of all states which are consistent with system model, measurements and a priori information, rather than the state itself. By combining a state-feedback MPC and an SSE, we design an SSE-based MPC algorithm that stabilizes the closed-loop system. The proposed algorithm is solved by semi-de�nite program involving linear matrix inequalities. A numerical example is included to illustrate the performance of the proposed algorithm.

Temperature control of an enclosed thermal system which has many applications including Rapid Thermal Processing (RTP) of semiconductor wafers showed an input-constraint violation for nonlinear controllers due to inherent strong coupling between the elements [1]. In this paper, a constrained nonlinear optimal control design is developed, which accommodates input constraints using the linear algebraic equivalence of the nonlinear controllers, for the temperature control of an enclosed thermal process. First, it will be shown that design of nonlinear controllers is equivalent to solving a set of linear algebraic equations-the linear algebraic equivalence of nonlinear controllers (LAENC). Then an input-constrained nonlinear optimal controller is designed based on that LAENC using the constrained linear least squares method. Through numerical simulations, it is demonstrated that the proposed controller achieves the equivalent performances to the classical nonlinear controllers with less total energy consumption. Moreover, it generates the practical control solution, in other words, control solutions do not violate the input-constraints.

The application of critical excitation method with displacement-based objective function for multi degree of freedom (MDOF) systems is investigated. To this end, a new critical excitation method is developed to find the critical input motion of a MDOF system as a synthetic accelerogram. The upper bound of earthquake input energy per unit mass is considered as a new constraint for the problem, and its advantages are discussed. Considering this constraint, the critical excitation method is then used to generate synthetic accelerograms for MDOF models corresponding to three shear buildings of 10, 16, and 22 stories. In order to demonstrate the reliability of generated accelerograms to estimate dynamic response of the structures, three target ground motions with considerable level of energy contents are selected to represent "real critical excitation" of each model, and the method is used to re-generate these ground motions. Afterwards, linear dynamic analyses are conducted using these accelerograms along with the generated critical excitations, to investigate the key parameters of response including maximum displacement, maximum interstory drift, and maximum absolute acceleration of stories. The results show that the generated critical excitations can make an acceptable estimate of the structural behavior compared to the target ground motions. Therefore, the method can be reliably implemented to generate critical excitation of the structure when real one is not available.

In the analysis of constrained holonomic systems, the Lagange multiplier method yields a system of second-order ordinary differential equations of motion and algebraic constraint equations. Conventional holonomic or nonholonomic constraints are defined as geometric constraints in this paper. Previous works concentrate on the geometric constraints. However, if the total energy of a dynamic system can be computed from the initial energy plus the time integral of the energy input rate due to external or internal forces, then the total energy can be artificially treated as a constraint. The violation of the total energy constraint due to numerical errors can be used as information to control these errors. It is a necessary condition for accurate simulation that both geometric and energy constraints be satisfied. When geometric constraint control is combined with energy constraint control, numerical simulation of a constrained dynamic system becomes more accurate. A new convenient and effective method to implement energy constraint control in numerical simulation is developed based on the geometric interpretation of the relation between constraints in the phase space. Several combinations of energy constraint control with either Baumgarte's Constraint Violation Stabilization Method (CVSM) are also addressed.

Using the classical cascade voltage control strategy, this paper proposes an analytical solution to an MPC (Model Predictive Control) problem with a hexagonal input constraint set for the inner-loop to regulate the output voltage of the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply). Focus is placed on how to deal with the hexagonal input constraint set without any approximation. Following the conventional cascade voltage control strategy, the PI (Proportional-Integral) controller is used in the outer-loop in order to regulate the output voltage. The simulation results illustrate that the capacitor voltage rapidly goes to its reference in a satisfactory manner while keeping other state variables bounded under an unexpected load changes.
