In this paper, the nonlinear I/O characteristic of fuzzy logic controller is analyzed by using cell concept. Sources of the nonlinearity in a fuzzy logic controller include the fuzzification, the fuzzy reasoning and the defuzzification. A closed form expression for the defuzzified output is derived in case of a fuzzy logic controller with two inputs, triangular memberships, MacVicar-Whelan type linguistic rules, and direct fuzzy reasoning. As a result, it is shown that fuzzy logic controller is a nonlinear controller. Also its nonlinearity is analyzed with respect to the conventional PID control and the sliding mode control.

유연구조물의 진동제어를 위해 압전필름 작동기를 사용하였고 이와 연계하 여 샘플링 과정을 고려한 DSMC를 구성하였다. 변수변화 및 외란의 경계치 를 알고 있다는 가정하에 시스템을 이산화시킨 후 제어기를 설계하였다. 일 반적으로 연속시간 시스템의 이산화 과정에서 정합조건의 가정이 보장되지 않기 때문에 제어기 설계시 이를 배제하였다. 이산시간 리아푸노프 이론을 근거로 DSMC의 존재성을 도출하였고, 이것에 기초하여 슬라이딩 모드가 발생되도록 불연속제어기를 설계하였다. 이때, 불연속게인을 상수로 하지 않고 RP의 위치에 따라 계속 새롭게 수정함으로써 슬라이딩 영역을 최소화 하였다. 그리고 기존의 DSMC 기법상에서 발생되는 슬라이딩 영역의 문제를 .betha. 등가제어기를 이용하는 이원화 방법으로 극복하였으며, 컴퓨터 시뮬 레이션을 통하여 제안된 기법의 설계 효율성 및 제어기의 강건성을 입증하였다. 향후, 제안된 기법에 대한 실험적 고찰 및 중요 제어인자에 대한 연구가 계속적으로 수행될 예정이다.

For way-point tracking of an autonomous underwater vehicle, a state feedback controller was designed by using pole placement scheme in discrete time domain. In the controller, 4 state variables were used for regulating the depth of the vehicle in z direction, and 3 state variables, for steering the vehicle in xy plane. Assuming constant speed of AUV, we simplified the design of the way-point tracking system. The proposed controller was simulated by MATLAB/Simulink using 6 degree-of-freedom nonlinear model and its performance of way point tracking was shown to be fulfilled within 1 m, nevertheless the proposed controller is quite simple and easy to implement compared to sliding mode controller.

FLC has a good performance for complication system or unknown model by using human linguistic method but many part control design are based on expert knowledge or trial-error method and it is difficult to prove stability and robustness of controller. In this paper we improve this problem by setting fuzzy rules by dividing phase plane of error and rate of error change by switching surface. We can guarantee the stability in nonlinear system, and also in fuzzy PID type controller the complexity of controller design is increased by increasing the number of input variables and defining more range of operation if we want performance of more specific rules, thus we need to fine the method to decrease the number of control rules used in FLC design. In this paper the algorithm is validated by simulation using conventional FLC and proposed method.

The stabilization controls of coupled tank system and ball-beam system are difficult control tasks because of their high order time delay, nonlinearity and structural unstability. Fuhermore, a series of classical methods such as a conventional PID and a full state feedback controller(FSFC) based on the local linearizations have narrow stabilizable regions. Therefore, in this paper, in order to stabilize two representative nonlinear system mentioned above, a Sliding Mode Controller based on a Real Variable Elitist Genetic Algorithm(RVEGA SMC) was proposed.

In case that the perfect model following conditions are not satisfied in the system, a perfect model-following controller is difficult to apply to the system. To deal with this problem, in this paper, a robust imperfect stable model-following controller is designed by combining time delay controller and sliding mode controller based on the concept of two degrees of freedom(2-DOF) controller design method. The experimental dynamic modeling of the commercial overhead crane with capacity of two tons is carried out. To remove the noise of the measuring signals from the swing angle measurement device and estimate the state of the swing angles of the transported object at each time instant, realtime tracker is designed using Kalman filter. The performance of the designed robust controller is tested through the commercial overhead. The experimental results show that the designed controller is robust and applicable to real systems.

New output voltage control technique based on the simple feedback linearization is proposed. The system states are first divided into fast states and slow states. Then, the control stage is composed of the fast inner current control loop and the slow outer voltage control loop. From the inner loop, the average control is derived by the sliding mode concept and it is inserted into the dynamic equations of the slow states in the outer loop. Applying the feedback linearization technique to the obtained large-signal models of the PWM dc-dc converters, linearized large-signal models are obtained for the slow states. With this technique, the output voltage controller of the PWM dc-dc converters can be designed easily in the global state space and its control performance can also be much improved.

This paper proposes a model based trajectory tracking control scheme for under-actuated underwater robotic vehicles. The difficulty in stabilizing a non-linear system using smooth static state feedback law means that the design of a feedback controller for an under-actuated system is somewhat challenging. A necessary condition for the asymptotic stability of an under-actuated vehicle about a single equilibrium is that its gravitational field has nonzero elements corresponding to non-actuated dynamics. To overcome this condition, we propose a continuous time-varying control law based on the direct estimation of vehicle dynamic variables such as inertia, damping and Coriolis & centripetal terms. This can work satisfactorily under commonly encountered uncertainties such as an ocean current and parameter variations. The proposed control law cancels the non-linearities in the vehicle dynamics by introducing non-linear elements in the input side. Knowledge of the bounds on uncertain terms is not required and it is conceptually simple and easy to implement. The controller parameter values are designed using the Taguchi robust design approach and the control law is verified analytically to be robust under uncertainties, including external disturbances and current. A comparison of the controller performance with that of a linear proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller and sliding mode controller are also provided.

This paper presents the design of hardware platform, which is a test bed for the navigation system and hovering type AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) under the OCP (Open Control Platform). The developed AUV test bed consists of two hulls, four thrusters, and the navigation system which uses a SBC2440II with IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit). And the SMC (Sliding Mode Control) is chosen for the diving and steering control of the AUV. This paper uses ACE/TAO RTEC (Real-Time Event Channel) as a middleware platform in order to control and communicate in the developed AUV test bed. In this paper, two computers are used and each of them is dedicated for the specific purpose, the first computer is used as the SMC module and the middleware platform for the ACE/TAO RTEC and the second computer is used for the sensor controller. We analyze the performance of the AUV test bed under the OCP.
