In this paper, an alternative variable structure controller is designed for the point-to-point regulation control of uncertain general linear plants so that the output of plants can be controlled from an arbitrarily given initial point to an arbitrarily given reference point in the state space. By using the error between the steady state value of the output and an arbitrarily given reference point and those integral, a transformed integral sliding surface is defined, in advance, as the surface from an initial state to an arbitrarily given reference point without the reaching phase problems. A corresponding control input is suggested to satisfy the existence condition of the sliding mode on the preselected transformed integral sliding surface against matched uncertainties and disturbances. Therefore, the output controlled by the proposed controller is completely robust and identical to that of the preselected transformed integral sliding surface. Through an example, the effectiveness of the suggested controller is verified.

The principle objective of this paper is to explain and demonstrate the advantage of the output-feedback controller proposed by Ailon in [61 by using simulation and experimental results. Namely, the goal of this study is to design and implement a real-time controller for set-point regulation of a one-link rigid robot manipulator with unknown parameters using only position measurement. For implementation a direct drive one-link rigid robot manipulator is constructed and a TMS320C40 DSP systems board is used in implementing real-time control algorithm.

This paper presents a system modeling, controller design and implementation for a rotational inverted pendulum system (RIPS), which is an under-actuated system and has the problem of unattainable velocity state. Two control strategies are applied to the RIPS. One is a sliding mode control method using the parameterization of both the hyperplane and the compensator for output feedback. The other is the disturbance observer which estimates disturbance and some modeling errors of RIPS with less computational effort. Some simulations and various kinds of experiments are performed in order to verify that the proposed controller has the ability to control RIPS whose velocity is assumed to be unavailable. The results of the simulations and experiments show that the proposed control system has superior performance for disturbance rejection and regulation at certain initial conditions as well as the robustness to model uncertainties.

In this paper, a method is presented for designing a tracking and disturbance rejecting controller for a nonlinear control system in which approximate linearization is not applicable due to a s stiff nonlinearity. Only the measurable variables are used for the controller synthesis. The system is augmented by a compensator at the output side for the tracking and disturbance rejection. An output delayed feedback controller is designed for the augmented system without nonlinearity. Then the feedback parameters are adjusted by describing function method to overcome the limit cycle due to the nonlinearity.

In this paper, a robust receding horizon controller for uncertain linear time-varying systems is presented in the dynamic output-feedback form. The existing output-feedback receding horizon controller in the literature is composed of a state observer and a static controller associated with the observer states (similar to LQC control), where the fundamental assumption is that the state observer will supply the exact states as time goes up. The performance of those controllers may be much degraded and even the closed-loop stability may not be guaranteed when the system suffers from disturbances and uncertainties or is time-varying. The proposed controller, which is not necessary to have the state-observer, overcomes such difficulties. Using matrix inequality conditions on the terminal weighting matrix, the closed-loop system stability is guaranteed. Numerical examples are ...

This paper deals with an H$_{\infty}$ output feedback control problem for linear systems with commensurate time delay in both state and input variables. The proposed output feedback controller also has commensurate time delay terms in the controller state. The controller can be synthesized based on the solution of the linear matrix inequalities(LMI) which can be easily solved using the convex optimization method. In order to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method, numerical examples are presented.

In this paper, an effective control scheme of a single phase UPS inverter is proposed to have no steady state error of the output voltage and the fast response for the load request. The cosine wave tranfer function is proposed to control the output voltage. This controller clearly removes errors of magnitude and phase both in the steady state. On the other hand, a current controller is proposed to reduce the transient time of the voltage control and to improve the bad distorted factor of the output voltage waveform by the load fluctuation and the presences of nonlinear parameters in the plant. The current controller is designed parallel to the voltage controller and performs separately from it.

A new output feedback controller design approach for flexible-joint (FJ) robots via the observer dynamic surface design technique is presented. The proposed approach only requires the feedback of position states. We first design an observer to estimate the link and actuator velocity information. Then, the link position tracking controller using the observer dynamic surface design procedure is developed. Therefore, the proposed controller can be simpler than the observer backstepping controller. From the Lyapunov stability analysis, it is shown that all signals in a closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded. Finally, the simulation results of a three-link FJ robot are presented to validate the good position tracking performance of the proposed control system.

This work deals with the synthesis of discrete-time nonlinear controller for input time-delay existing nonlinear system and proposes a new effective method to compensate the influence of input time-delay. The controller is synthesised by using input/output linearization. Under the circumstance that input time-delay exist, controller have to produce future value that will be needed for system. On account of this reason described, a weighted average predictor of combined states is adopted. Using the discretization via Euler method, numerical simulations about Van der Pol system are performed to evaluate performance of the proposed method.

In this paper, an attempt is made to match the continuous state trajectory of the digital control system with that of its continuous data model. Matching the state trajectories instead of the output responses assures that the performances of the internal variables of the plant as well as the output variables are preserved in the discretization. The mathematical tool used in this research is an extended maximum principle of the Pontryagin type, which enables one to synthesize a staircase type of optimal control signals, such as the output signal of a zero-order hold asociated with a digital controller. A general mathematical expression of the digital controller which may be used to replace the analog controller of a general system while preserving as mauch as possible the performance characteristics of the original continuous-data control system is derived in this paper.
