This paper propose the implementation of robust fuzzy controller for controlling an active magnetic bearing (AMB) system with 6 degree of freedom (DOF). A basic model with 6 DOF rotor dynamics and electromagnetic force equations for conical magnetic bearings is proposed. The developed model has severe nonlinearity and uncertainty so that it is not easy to obtain the control objective. For solving this problem, we use the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model which is suitable for designing fuzzy controller. The control object in the AMB system enables the rotor to rotate without any phsical contact by using magnetic force. In this paper, we analyze the nonlinearity of the active magnetic bearing system by using fuzzy control algorithm and desing the robust control algorithm for solving the parameter variation. Simulation results for AMB are demonstrated to visualize the feasibility of the proposed method.

In this paper, the application of Parallel Distributed Compensation (PDC) controller for fixed pitch rotary wing system was studied. For nonlinear modeling, T-S fuzzy model was utilized to advance system control including the tilt type UAV. PDC controller was designed through the Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI). Experiments for determining the applicability and feasibility of PDC were performed using the 1 axis attitude control equipment and simulation. To verify the performance and characteristics of the controller, Mathworks Co. Simulink was used. After then, the PDC controller performance was verified and the results with developed controller using a 1 axis attitude control equipment were compared. Verification of the feasibility of PDC controller for the fixed pitch rotary wing system and identification of the overall performance and improvement analysis was conducted based on the experimental results.
