In this paper, a robust controller of state delayed systems is presented. The suggested controller stabilizes the closed loop system independently of the delay time. It is shown that the controller reduces the effect of disturbances on the output of the given system to a pre-specified level. The proposed controller will stabilize the closed loop system in the presence of plant perturbations whose size are less than a pre-specified value.

In general, due to the interactions among subsystems, it is difficult to design an decentralized controller for nonlinear interconnected systems. In this study, the model of nonlinear interconnected systems is studied via decentralized fuzzy control method with time delay and polytopic uncertainty. First, the nonlinear interconnected system is represented by an equivalent Takagi-Sugeno type fuzzy model. And the represented model can be rewritten as Parameterized Linear Matrix Inequalities(PLMIs), that is, LMIs whose coefficients are functions of a parameter confined to a compact set. We show that the resulting fuzzy controller guarantees the asymptotic stability and disturbance attenuation of the closed-loop system in spite of controller gain variations within a resulted polytopic region by example and simulations.

If a ship diesel engine is operated by consolidated control with Controllable Pitch Propeller(CPP), the minimum fuel consumption is achieved together with the demanded ship speed. For this, it is necessary that the ship is operated on the ideal operating line which satisfies the minimum fuel consumption and that the pitch angle of CPP and throtle valve angle are controlled simultaneously. In this point of view, this paper presents a controller design method for a ship propulsion system with CPP based on the decoupling control theory. To do this, Linear Matrix Inequality(LMI) approach is introduced for the control system to satisfy the given $H_\infty$ control performance and robust stability in the presence of physical parameter perturbations. The validity and applicability of this approach are illustrated by simulation in the all operating ranges.

Robust control of a GFR composite beam with a distributed PVDF sensor and piezo-ceramic actuator is presented En this paper. Modal analysis method and modal coordinates are introduced to obtain the state educations of the structural system. 1st and 2nd natural frequencies are considered In the modeling, because robust control theory which is robustness to structured uncertainty is adopted to suppress the vibration. If the controllers designed by H$\^$$\infty$/ theory do not satisfy control performance, it is improved by ${\mu}$-synthesis method with D-K Iteration so that the ${\mu}$-controller based on the structured singular value satisfies the nominal performance and robust performance.

The magnetic levitation system is utilized in the magnetic bearing of high-speed rotor because of little friction, no lubrication, no noise and so on. The magnetic levitation system need the feedback controller for the stabilization of system, and gap sensors are usually used to measure the gap. The use of sensor is troublesome such as sensor trouble, discord between the measurement point and the control point etc. This paper presents the design of robust stabilizing controller by H$_{\infty}$ control theory using the sensorless method proposed already by authors in the magnetic levitation system. And we investigated both the validity of the designed controller and the usefulness of the sensorless method proposed by authors of magnetic levitation system through results of actual experiment..

The energy saving is one of the most important factors for profit in marine transportation. In order to reduce the fuel oil consumtion the ship's propulsion efficiency must be increased as possible. The propulsion efficiency depends upon a combination of an engine and a propeller. The propeller has better efficiency as lower rotational speed. This situation led the engine manufacturers to design the engine that has low speed, long stroke and a small number of cylinders. Consequently, the variation of rotational torque became larger than before because of the longer delay-time in fuel oil injection process and an increased output per cylinder. As this new trends the conventional mechanical-hydrualic governors for engine speed control have been replaced by digital speed controllers which adopted the PID control or the optimal control algorithm. But these control algorithms have not enough robustness to suppress the variation of the delay-time and the parameter perturbation. In this paper we consider the delay-time and the perturbation of engine parameters as the modeling uncetainties. Next we design the robust servo controller which has zero offset in steady state engine speed, based on H sub($\infty$) control theory. The validity of the controller was investigated through the response simulation. We used a personal computer and an analog computer as the digital controller and the engine (plant) part respectively. And, we could certify that the designed controller maintains its robust servo performance even though the engine parameters may vary.

Parameters in the internal combustion engines are variable depending on the operating points. Therefore, it is necessary to compensate for the uncertainties. Form this point of view, this paper gives a controller design method and a robust stability condition by LMI approach for engine torque control which satisfies the gives H$\infty$ control performance in the presence of physical parameter perturbations. To the end, the robustness of the system in the presence of perturbation is guaranteed in the all engine operating regions. Its effectiveness is demonstrated by simulation.

This paper deals with a fault-tolerant control method for robust control of RPV(Remotely Piloted Vehicle). To design the flight control system, the 6-DOF simulation program has been developed based on the dynamic model of RPV. A robust fault detection and diagnosis method proposed by Kwon et al. [8]-[10] is adopted to detect the actuator fault of RPV and to make the controller reconfiguration. The Hoo control method is applied to the flight control system. An integrated simulation for performance evaluation of the fault-tolerat\nt control system designed is performed via 6 DOF simulation and shows that the control system works even under the actuator fault.

In this paper, the authors consider a gimbal system in which a camera is installed to reconnoiter the objects or targets. The issue for this considered system is to obtain information with good quality always. To achieve given objective, it is necessary to control the gimbal system with accurate rotation angle and speed. In this paper, the authors design a robust control system based on $H_{\infty}$ control framework. The controller is designed using a plant model obtained by experiment and simulation. And the experiment result with good control performance is presented.

There are many demands for ship control system and many studies have been proposed. For example, if a ship diesel engine is operated by consolidated control with Controllable Pitch Propeller(CPP), the minimum fuel consumption is achieved, satisfying the demanded ship speed. For this, it is necessary that the ship is operated on the ideal operating line which satisfies the minimum fuel consumption. In this context of view, this paper presents a controller design method for a ship propulsion system with CPP by Linear Matrix Inequality(LMI) which satisfies the given $H_{\infty}$ control performance and robust stability in the presence of physical parameter perturbations. The validity and applicability of this approach are illustrated through a simulation in the all operating ranges.
