In this paper, a self-tuning controller design is proposed by using pole-zero placement method and considering a system time delay. To got better tracking for the generalized self-tuning controller, pole placement method for the closed loop system and zero placement method for the error transfer function are Introduced. The proposed method shows better efficiency than pole placement method for minimizing tracking error. Simulation gives good results in tie reference signal tracking.

This paper presents the design and development of an optimal fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for a laser tracking system. An optimal intelligent fuzzy logic controller was founded on integral criterion of the fuzzy models and three-dimensional fuzzy control. Research had been also concentrated on the methods for multivariable fuzzy models for the purposes of real-time process. Simulation results have shown remarkable tracking performance of this fuzzy PID controller.

In this paper, using the direct drive arm for plant, the controller is developed to track the desired trajectory in high speed and precision. For the purpose of this, through extending self-tuning pole-placement algorithm, we developed self-tuning pole-shift algorithm which is fast in response and good tracking for the reference tracking change. Developed controller is applied a three-link direct drive arm with the varing payload to track the desired tracking. And, through the computer simulation, the performance of developed controller is compared with the performance of the computed torque method and the self-tuning pole placement algorith.

Metaheuristic optimization approach has become the new framework for control synthesis. The main purposes of the control design are command (input) tracking and load (disturbance) regulating. This article proposes an optimal proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller design for the DC motor speed control system with tracking and regulating constrained optimization by using the cuckoo search (CS), one of the most efficient population-based metaheuristic optimization techniques. The sum-squared error between the referent input and the controlled output is set as the objective function to be minimized. The rise time, the maximum overshoot, settling time and steady-state error are set as inequality constraints for tracking purpose, while the regulating time and the maximum overshoot of load regulation are set as inequality constraints for regulating purpose. Results obtained by the CS will be compared with those obtained by the conventional design method named Ziegler-Nichols (Z-N) tuning rules. From simulation results, it was found that the Z-N provides an impractical PID controller with very high gains, whereas the CS gives an optimal PID controller for DC motor speed control system satisfying the preset tracking and regulating constraints. In addition, the simulation results are confirmed by the experimental ones from the DC motor speed control system developed by analog technology.

This paper proposes a novel fault tolerant tracking control (FTTC) scheme for a class of nonlinear systems with actuator failures based on the policy iteration (PI) algorithm and the adaptive fault observer. The estimated actuator failure from an adaptive fault observer is utilized to construct an improved performance index function that reflects the failure, regulation and control simultaneously. With the help of the proper performance index function, the FTTC problem can be transformed into an optimal control problem. The fault tolerant tracking controller is composed of the desired controller and the approximated optimal feedback one. The desired controller is developed to maintain the desired tracking performance at the steady-state, and the approximated optimal feedback controller is designed to stabilize the tracking error dynamics in an optimal manner. By establishing a critic neural network, the PI algorithm is utilized to solve the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation, and then the approximated optimal feedback controller can be derived. Based on Lyapunov technique, the uniform ultimate boundedness of the closed-loop system is proven. The proposed FTTC scheme is applied to reconfigurable manipulators with two degree of freedoms in order to test the effectiveness via numerical simulation.

This paper presents a method to design an adaptive controller for the kinematic model of a two-wheeled welding mobile robot (WMR) with unknown parameters. We propose a nonlinear controller based on the Lyapunov function to enhance the tracking properties of the WMR. The WMR can track any smooth curved welding path at a constant velocity of the welding point. The system has three degrees of freedom including two wheels and one torch slider. Torch slider motion is used for fast tracking. To design the tracking performance, the errors from WMR to steel wall is defined, and the controller is designed to drive the errors to zero as fast as possible. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is shown through simulation results.

This study presents a direct adaptive controller which is derived by using Lyapunovs direct methods for trajectory tracking control of a pneumatic cylinder. The structure of the controller is very simple and computationally efficient because it does not use either the dynamic model or the parameter values of the pneumatic system. The bounded stability of the system is shown in the presence of the bounded unmodeled dynamics. The bounded size of tracking errors can be made arbitrarily small without giving andy influences on either input or output variables. The trajectory tracking performance and the stability of the control system is verified experimentally. The results of the experiments show that the proposed controller tracks the given trajectories, sine function and cycloidal function trajectories, more accurately than PD controller does, and it stabilizes the system and adaptive variables.

This paper proposed a predictive tracking controller for the continuous-time systems by using the receding horizon concept in the optimal tracking control. This controller is the continuous-time version of the previous RHTC (Receding Horizon Tracking Control) for the discrete-time state space models. The problems in implementing the feedforward part of this controller is discussed and a approximate method of implementing this controller is presented. This approximate method utilizes the information of the command signals on the receding horizon and has simple constant feedback and feedforward gain. To perform the offset free control, the integral action is included in the continuous time RHTC. By simulation it is shown that the proposed method gives better performance than the conventional steady state tracking control.

Since the behavior of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is influenced by disturbances and moments that are not accurately known, the depth control law of AUVs must have the ability to track the input signal and to reject disturbances simultaneously. Here, we proposed robust tracking control for controlling the depth of an AUV. An augmented closed-loop system is represented by an error dynamic equation, and we can easily show the asymptotic stability of the overall system by using a Lyapunov function. The robust tracking controller is consisted of the internal model of the command signal and a state feedback controller, and it has the ability to track the input signal and reject disturbances. The closed-loop control system is robust to parameter uncertainties. Simulation results showed the control performance of the robust tracking controller to be better than that of a P + PD controller.
