In this paper, the authors propose a new approach to control problem of the marine vessels which are moored or controlled by actuators. The vessel control problem in the specified area is called a DPS (Dynamic Positioning System). The main objective of this paper is to obtain more useful control design method for DPS. In this problem, a complicate fact is control allocation which is a numerical method for distributing the control signal to the controlled system. For this, many results have been given and verified by other researchers using two individual processes. It means that the controller design and control allocation design process are carried out individually. In this paper, the authors give more sophisticated design solution on this issue. In which the controller design and control allocation problem are unified by a robust controller design problem. In other word, the stability of the closed-loop system, control performance and allocation problem are unified by an LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality) constraint based on $H_2/H_{\infty}$ mixed design framework. The usefulness of proposed approach is verified by simulation with a supply vessel model and found works well.

In this paper, we discuss an observer-based fault tolerant controller design for the T-S (Takagi-Sugeno) fuzzy system with exogenous disturbance. To derive robust controller design conditions, we use $H_{\infty}$ design technique. The design conditions are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities. An illustrative example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.

This paper designs a digital controller by making use of the $H^{\infty}$ control algorithm and $\mu$-synthesis in order to keep a balance of the VTOL(Vertical Take Off and Landing Plane) vehicle with 4 fans. A identification of the actual model is acquired by the vehicle rolling, pitching and yawing angles for a pseude-random signal input and various identification theories. In spite of parameter variations and existing disturbances, the designed controller showes its robust performance through simulations and experiments.

제어이론의 역사적 발전사를 고찰해보면 1930년대부터 1960년대까지를 고전 제어(classical control) 시대로 분류되고 이때 주로 사용되었던 용어들은 주파수역(frequency domain)에서 사용된 개념인 극점(pole), 영점(zero), Nyquist, 근궤적(root-Locus) 선도(plot)등으로 대표된다. 그 다음단계인 현대 제어(modern control) 시대 (1960년대-1980년대)때는 새로운 개념들이 도입 되었는데 시간역(time domain)에서 사용되는 상태공간(state-space) 모델, 가제어성(controllability), 가관측성(observability), Kalman 필터, LQG 제어 등이다. 1980년대부터 현재까지를 강인제어(robust control) 시대로 분류하는데 이것의 특징들은 극점이나 영점 대신 상태공간 모델을 사용하여 주파수역에서 정의되는 개념들인 H$_{\infty}$ 합성법, .$\mu$ 해석법, LQG/LTR 및 QFT, Lyapunov 등으로 대표된다. 현대제어시대때는 제어기 K는 공칭 플랜트 모델 G$_{0}$를 기준으로 설계되었으나 실제로 공칭 플랜트 모델은 실제 플랜트와 항상 같을 수가 없었다. 따라서 실제 플랜트 G는 G=G$_{0}$ + .DELTA.G로 표현되며 여기서 .DELTA.G는 플랜트 불 확실성(plant uncertainty), 즉 실제 플랜트와 공칭 플랜트의 차이를 나타낸 다. 이 플랜트 불확실성은 제어기가 실제 응용되어 사용되었을 때 제대로 작동하지 않는 주요 이유중에 하나이다. 이와 같은 상황에서 안정도 강인성 (stability robustness) 및 성능 강인성(performance rosubtness)의 보장은 상 당히 중요한 문제로 대두되었으며 주어진 플랜트 불확실성하에서 이러한 강이성들이 보장되는 제어이론들 중 H$_{\infty}$ 제어이론이 많이 연구/응용 되고 있다. 특히 공칭 플랜트 모델과 함께 사용되는 플랜트 모델과 함께 사용되는 플랜트 불확실성 모델은 직접적으로 성능 및 안정도에 영향을 미치므로 주의 깊게 선정해야 한다.

A new approach is presented to design a robust sampled-data controller for an experimental flexible beam carrying an unknown payload at its free end. The purpose of this paper is to move the free end of the beam to a desired position in the specified time under vibration suppression. We derive a transfer function nominal model for the beam and quantitative description of model uncertainties based on experimentally obtained frequency response data. Robust controllers are designed by applying the sampled-data $H_{\infty}$ control and ${\mu}m-theory$, in which two types of uncertainties, structured and unstructured uncertainties, are adopted for satisfactory performance in terms of hinge position regulation and vibration damping, besides obviously asymptotic stability. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed through simulation and experimentation.

The H$_{\infty}$robust controller fur the reactor power control system is designed by use of the mixed weight sensitivity. The system is configured into the typical two-port model with which the weight functions are augmented. Since the solution depends on the weighting functions and the problem is of non-convex, the genetic algorithm is used to determine the weighting functions. The cost function applied in the genetic algorithm permits the direct control of the power tracking performances. In addition, the actual operating constraints such as rod velocity and acceleration can be treated as design parameters. Compared with the conventional approach, the controller designed by the genetic algorithm results in the better performances with the realistic constraints. Also, it is found that the genetic algorithm could be used as an effective tool in the robust design. robust design.

In this study, a synchronous controller algorithm being applicable to two-axis position synchronzation is developed. Based on coupling structure, the synchronous control system is composed of speed and synchronous controllers. The speed controller is designed to follow a speed reference. In addition, the synchronous controller is designed from the viewpoint of accurate synchronization and robust stability in H$\infty$ synthesis. Finally, the effectiveness of the presented controller is demonstrated through extensive experiments.

In this paper, we propose a new design procedure of the Robust Model Matching(RM) using the Normalized Left Coprime Factorization (NLCF) approach. The RMM aims at reducing the sensitivity of a given control system, but standard design procedures are not for robust stability. Therefore we try applying the robust stability condition based on NLCF to RMM procedure. We first formulate the RMM using the robust stability condition of NLCF approach, then we propose the new procedure of the RMM. The point is that the condition includes the measure of sensitivity of the RMM. In the proposed procedure, a cost function is determined through the condition and solved by H$_{\infty}$ contro technique. Finally we show a design example and check the performance..

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.
