There exist two critical in application of the magnetic bearing system. One is the control axis interference caused by gyroscopic effect and the other is the vibration caused by the unbalance on the rotor. To solve both problems at the same time, first, a centralized full-state feedback controller based on the LQR control theory was designed to compensate for the gyroscopic effect. Second, disturbance rejection control input based on the observer was designed to avoid the vibration causer by the unbalanced rotor. Balancing input computer accroding to LQR and output of the observer were derived in term of rotational speed. Effectiveness of the on-line balancing was verified through numerical simulation. The developed observer-based controller was also applied to the linear and nonlinear magnetic bearing systems.

This paper provides an observer-based $H_{\infty}$ controller design method for singular systems with and without time-varying delay by just one LMI condition. The sufficient condition for the existence of controller and the controller design method are presented by perfect LMI (linear matrix inequality) approach. The design procedure involves solving an LMI. The observer-based $H_{\infty}$ controller in the existing results can be constructed from the coupled two or more conditions while the proposed controller design method can be obtained from an LMI condition, which can be solved efficiently by convex optimization. Since the obtained condition can be expressed as an LMI form, all variables including feedback gain and observer gain can be calculated simultaneously by Schur complement and changes of variables. An example is given to illustrate the results.

In this paper, we present an observer-based robust controller which achieves not only robust stability but also an performance robustness for linear uncertain discrete-time systems. The performance robustness means that comparing the transient behavior of the uncertain system with a desired one generated by the nominal system, the deterioration of control performance (i.e. the error between the real response and the desired one) is suppressed without excessive control input. The control law consists of a state feedback law for the nominal system and a compensation input given by a feedback form of an estimated error signal. In this paper, we show that conditions for the existence of the observer-based controller are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the proposed technique.

In this paper, a force estimation method is proposed for the sensorless force control. For this, a disturbance observer is applied to each joint of an n degrees of freedom manipulator to obtain a simple equivalent robot dynamics(SERD) being represented as an n independent double integrator system. To estimate the output of disturbance observer in the absence of external force, the observer estimator is designed, where the uncertain parameters of the robot manipulator are adjusted by gradient method to minimize the output between the disturbance observer and the observer estimator. When the external force is exerted, the external force is estimated using the difference between the output of disturbance observer which include the external torque signal and that of observer estimator. And then, a force controller is designed for force feedback control employing the estimated force signal. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed force estimation method, several numerical examples are illustrated for the 2-axis planar type robot manipulator.

A control approach for the robust position control of induction motors based on the improved binary disturbance observer is described. The conventional binary disturbance observer is used to remove the chattering problem of a sliding mode disturbance observer. However, the steady state error may be existed in the conventional binary disturbance observer because it estimates external disturbance with a constant boundary layer. In order to overcome this problem, a new binary disturbance observer with an integral augmented switching hyperplane is improved. The robustness is achieved, and the continuous control is realised by employing the improved observer without the chattering problem and the steady state error. The effectiveness of the improved observer is confirmed by the comparative experimental results.

MRAS observer, which is based on adaptive control theory, estimates speed and position by using optimal observer gains on the basis of Lyapunov stability theory. However, in case of MRAS theory, position estimation error is in existence because of non-linearity for inductance variation and limit cycles for position estimation. The adaptive sliding observer based on the variable structure control theory estimates the speed and position for zero of estimation error by using the sliding surface equal to the error between speed and position estimation. The binary observer estimates the rotor speed and rotor flux with alleviation of the high-frequency chattering, and retains the benefits achieved in the conventional sliding observer, such as robustness to parameter and disturbance variations. The speed and position sensorless control of SRM under the load and inductance variation is verified by the experimental results.

To synchronize the distributed generation (DG) unit with the grid, the voltage sensors are generally employed to obtain the grid phase angle. This paper presents an observer-based voltage sensorless control scheme for a three-phase inverter connected to the grid through an LCL filter. The proposed control scheme consists of an augmented state observer and a feedback controller. The augmented state observer is used to estimate the grid voltages and states of the inverter system, which are then employed to determine the grid voltage angle and to construct the feedback controller. As a result of using the observer, only the grid current sensors are required to accomplish the control scheme. The simulation results are given to prove the validity of the proposed control scheme.

In this paper, a sampled-data observer-based decentralized fuzzy control technique is proposed for a class of nonlinear large-scale systems, which can be represented to a Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy system. The premise variable is assumed to be measurable for the design of the observer-based fuzzy controller, and the closed-loop system is obtained. Based on an exact discretized model of the closed-loop system, the stability condition is derived for the closed-loop system. Also, the stability condition is converted into the linear matrix inequality (LMI) format. Finally, an example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed techniques.

This paper presents a new speed and position sensorless control method of permanent magnet synchronous motors based on the sliding mode observer. Since the parameter of the dynamic equation such as machine inertia or viscosity friction coefficient are not well known and these values can be easily changed generally during normal operation, there are many restrictions in the actual implementation. The proposed adaptive sliding mode observer applies adaptive scheme so that observer may overcome the problem caused by using the dynamic equation. Furthermore, using the Lyapunov Function, the adaptive sliding mode observer can estimate rotor speed as well as stator resistance. The feasibility of the Proposed observer is verified cia the experiments.

A disturbance-observer-based adaptive neural tracker design problem is investigated for a class of perturbed uncertain non-affine nonlinear systems with unknown control direction. A nonlinear disturbance observer (NDO) design methodology using neural networks is presented to construct a tracking control scheme with the attenuation effect of an external disturbance. Compared with previous control results using NDO for nonlinear systems in non-affine form, the major contribution of this paper is to design a NDO-based adaptive tracker without the sign information of the control coefficient. The stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed in the sense of Lyapunov stability.
