A new integral controller is proposed for time-delay plants. The proposed controller has Davison type structure and utilizes a simplified state predictor instead of the optimal state predictor for the extended system. The simplified predictor is introduced by a trick similar to that used in the Smith predictor. As a systematic method for designing the proposed controller, the application of the loop transfer recovery (LTR) technique is considered. For the plant input side and the output side, explicit representations of the sensitivity matrices achieved by enforcing the formal LTR procedure using Riccati equations are obtained. A numerical example is presented to compare the asymptotic...

In control of the time delay systems, if the disturbance information can be estimated exactly, the ideal response for the disturbance can be achieved. Therefore, in this paper, a new adaptive disturbance observer for the time delay system control is proposed. The disturbance observer is designed and adaptive laws for adjusting the observer are proposed. The new Smith predictor controller to eliminate the effects of the disturbance can be achieved by adding an estimated disturbance to the Smith model. The improved performances of the proposed system and the adaptive disturbance observer are verified by computer simulation.

In control of time delay systems, if the informations about the system model and the disturbance can be estimated exactly, the ideal response can be achieved by using Smith predictor controller. Therefore, in this paper, an adaptive algorithm is proposed to control time delay systems existing modelling errors and disturbance. An adaptive observer to estimate disturbance and system model is designed and adaptive laws adjusting the observer are proposed. The new Smith predictor controller is designed using the proposed adaptive observer. As a result, the proposed controller can eliminate the effects of the disturbance and the modelling error. The effectiveness and the improved performance of the proposed system are verified by computer simulation.

In this paper, a modeling and a robust time-delay control for the reclaimer are investigated. Supplying the same amount of a raw material throughout the reclamation process from the raw yard to a sinter plant is important to keep the quality of the molten steel uniform in blast furnaces. As the actual parameter values of the reclaimer are not available, the boom rotational dynamics are modeled as a second order differential equation with unknown coefficients. The unknown parameters in the nominal model are estimated using a recursive estimation method. Another important factor in the control design of the reclaimer is the large time-delay in output measurement. Assuming a multiplicative uncertainty, that accounts for both the unstructured uncertainty neglected in the modeling and the structured uncertainty contained in the parameter estimation, a robust Smith predictor is designed. A robust stability criterion for the multiplicative uncertainty is also derived. Following the work of Goodwin et al. [4], a quantifying procedure of the multiplicative uncertainty bound, through experiments , is described. Experimental and simulation results are provided.

Smith predictor can't be applied to the time delay systems that have poles near the origin or a pure integrator or a modeling error, because of occurring the steady state error for the step disturbance. In this paper, a new Smith predictor controller for these systems is designed to eliminate the effects of the disturbance. A disturbance observer to estimate a disturbance is proposed and a new controller is designed using the estimated disturbance. As a result, the new controller can eliminate the effects of the disturbance and modeling error. The simulation results for the steam superheater and the steam pressure systems verify the efficiency of the proposed controller.

Uncertain time delay happens when the process reads the sensor data and sends the control input to the plant located at a remote site in distributed control system. As in the case of data network using TCP/IP, VDN that integrates both device network and data network has uncertain time delay. Uncertain time delay can cause degradation in performance and stability of distributed control system based on VDN. This paper first investigates the transmission characteristic of VDN and suggests a control scheme based on the Smith's predictor to minimize the effect of uncertain varying time delay. The validity of the proposed control scheme is demonstrated with real-time velocity control of DC servo motor located in remote site.

Recently electronic control of engine is used to satisfy exhaust gas restriction and to increase fuel economical efficiency and acceleration. In this paper, Smith-predictor method is applied to increase control performance for A/F command and disturbance. A/F control performance is simulated by A/F command and disturbance of Chevolet 5.7 liter engine and Toyota 4A-ELU engine. This method can be applied to A/F controller so that lion accurate and rapid A/F control is possible.

This paper describes the design method of the linear PID controller and proposed the design method in the future. The first PID design method is to ensure phase margin and gain margin. This method guarantees stability by designing in the frequency domain. The second method is an internal model control method. This method is to design the PID controller using the parameters of the internal model after identifying the internal model for the control model. Therefore, this method has a strong disturbance characteristic. Finally, a proposed Cascade and smith-Predictor controller. The combination of the cascade controller and the smith-predator of this method is a controller structure that has two advantages: robust control and optimal control. This method can obtain the performance evaluation index as the optimal controller design method. This PID controller design method becomes the basis of the nonlinear method and is being continuously studied.

With the development of medical field, many kinds of operations have been performed on human articulation. Arthroscopic surgery, which has Irrigation Pumping System for security of operator vision and washing spaces of operation, has been used for more merits than others. In this paper, it is presented that the research on a reliable control algorithm of the pumping system instrument for arthroscopic surgery. Before clinical operation, the flexible artificial articulation model is used for realizing the model the most same as human's and the algorithm has been exploited for it. This system is considered of the following; limited sensing point, dynamic effect by compliance, time delay by fluid flow and so on. The system is composed with a pressure controller, a regulator for keeping air pressure, an airtight tank that can have distilled water packs, artificial articulation and a measuring system, and has controlled by the feedback of pressure sensor on the artificial articulation. Also the system has applied to Smith Predictor for time delay and the parameter estimation method for the most suitable system with both the experiment data and modeling. In this paper, the pressure error that is between an air pressure tank and an artificial articulation was measured so that the system could be presumed and then the controller had developed for performing State-Feedback. Finally, the controller with a real microprocessor has realized. The confidence of system can be proved by applying this control algorithm to an artificial articulation experiment material.
