The mission life of a satellite determines the amount of fuel required on-board, while the total mass requirement limits the fuel to be loaded. Hence, for the design of thruster control loop, not only the satellite pointing accuracy but the saving of fuel is to be considered. In this paper, a two-step fuzzy controller is proposed for the thruster control loop to save fuel consumption. This approach combines requirements for pointing control accuracy with minimum fuel consumption into a fuzzy controller design. To demonstrate this approach, we have designed a fuzzy controller for the Sun Pointing Mode of KOMPSAT-1. The performance of this fuzzy controller design is compared with that of PD controller used for KOMPSAT-1.

In this paper, we suggest a new identification method based on the takagi-sugeno fuzzy model which prepresents an envrionmental stiffness and propose a method to decide PD gains of the PD controller. It is difficult to perform a compliance task due to characteristics of robot itself and uncertain work envronment. Therefore, in this paper, we identify the fuzzy rule by dividing the relationship of input-output data into several piecewise-linear equations using the hough transform which is the one this fuzzy model, we propose a method to design the pD gain. We show the validity of this method by the experiment of tracking the surface of the paper box as an example of variable environment using robot manipulator and force sensing system. As a performance index, we use the settling time, and perform an analysis between conventional PD contorllers and this controller.

This note is concerned with the point to point control of manipulators having elastic joints. We present a PD control algorithm which is adaptive with respect to the gravity and elastic parameters of robot manipulators. While the conventional control law is used, a new adaptive law is used to improve the performance. The proposed controller is shown to be stable. It is Shown that steady-state position error converges to zero through some simulations concerning the manipulator with three revolute elastic joints.

This paper concerns a 2-axis PR type pneumatic manipulator system translating in vertical and rotating in horizontal directions. A simplified linear model is mathematically formulated similar to the pneumatic acturators in dynamic responses in order to devise an appropriate position control scheme. A PD controller preceding the on/off solenoid valve turns out not only economical but also effective in reducing rise time and amplitude of limit cycles, if its control gains are determined on the basis of frequency response. And, additional implementation of symmetric or asymmetric deadband at the PD controller output greatly helps minimize valve opening numbers, positional error, and undesirable direction-dependent property due to the gravitational load. Such a control concept is synthesized through numerical simulations and next applied to the experimental set-up, featuring enhanced positional servo characteristics.

In this paper, fuzzy-PD control system is designed to control angle and position of the inverted pendulum. To optimize parameters of fuzzy-PD controller, we used adaptive evolutionary computation(AEC). AEC uses a Genetic A1gorithm(GA) and an Evolution Strategy(ES) in an adaptive manner in order to take merits of two different evolutionary computations.

This paper proposes a realization of robust trajectory tracking for an industrial robot by using PD-sliding mode hybrid control. The PD control has a good performance in the transient period while the sliding mode control has robustness against the system uncertainties. The proposed control method is proposed for the control of a multi-joint robot by taking advantages of both the PD and sliding mode controls. The embodiment of distributed controllers that drive 4-DOF axes has evaluated through experiments with the multi-joint robot AT1. The PD-sliding mode algorithm which is proposed in this paper shows a good performance in the transient period and robustness against disturbances and This paper shows accuracy of end-effector.

In this paper, we designed Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) for large scale Superconductor Flywheel Energy Storage System (SFESS) and PD controller for AMB. And we experimentally evaluated SFESS including hybrid type AMB. The radial AMB was designed to provide force slew rate that was sufficient for the unbalance disturbances at the maximum operating speed. The thrust AMB is a hybrid type where a permanent magnet carries the weight of the flywheel and an electromagnetic actuator generates the dynamic control force. We evaluated the design performance of the manufactured AMB through comparison of FEM analysis and the results of experimental force measurement. In order to obtain gains of PD controller and design a notch filter, the system identification was performed through measuring frequency response including dynamics for the AMBs, a power amp and a sensor using a sine swept test method after levitating the flywheel. Through measuring the current input of the AMBs and the orbit of a flywheel according to rotational speed, we verified excellent control performance of the AMBs with small amount current for the large scale SFESS.

In this study, we introduce the design methodology of an optimized fuzzy cascade controller with the aid of hierarchical fair competition-based genetic algorithm(HFCGA) for ball & beam system. The ball & beam system consists of servo motor, beam and ball, and remains mutually connected in line in itself. The ball & beam system determines the position of ball through the control of a servo motor. The displacement change the position of ball leads to the change of the angle of the beam which determines the position angle of a servo motor. Consequently the displacement change of the position of the moving ball and its ensuing change of the angle of the beam results in the change of the position angle of a servo motor. We introduce the fuzzy cascade controller scheme which consists of the outer(1st) controller and the inner(2nd) controller as two cascaded fuzzy controllers, and auto-tune the control parameters(scaling factors) of each fuzzy controller using HFCGA. The inner controller controls the position of lever arm which corresponds to the position angle of a servo motor and the outer controller decides the set-point value of the inner controller. HFCGA is a kind of parallel genetic algorithms(PGAs), and helps alleviate the premature convergence being generated in conventional genetic algorithms (GAs). For a detailed comparative analysis from the viewpoint of the performance results and the design methodology, the proposed method for the ball & beam system which is realized by the fuzzy cascade controller based on HFCGA, is presented in comparison with the conventional PD cascade controller based on serial genetic algorithms.

In this paper, PD-like visual servoing is modified in two ways: a sliding-mode observer is applied to estimate the joint velocities, and a RBF neural network is used to compensate the unknown gravity and friction. Based on Lyapunov method and input--to-state stability theory, we prove that PD-like visual servoing with the sliding mode observer and the neuro compensator is robust stable when the gain of the PD controller is bigger than the upper bounds of the uncertainties. Several simulations are presented to support the theory results.
