We propose an optimized adaptive PID control scheme. This paper is focused on the development of model reduction as well as a new adoptive control structure (viz. a recursive least square estimation (RLSE) method-based structure) that is constructed with smith-predictor structure and a real time estimator. The estimator adjust parameters of a reduced model in real time. It leads to robust and superb control performance for the noise or variation of parameters of process. Experimental study reveals that the proposed control structure exhibits more superb output performance in comparison to some previous methods.

This paper presents a method for designing a robust controller that alleviates disturbance effects and compensates performance degradation owing to the time-delay. Disturbance observer(DOB) approach as a tool of robust control has been widely employed in industry. However, since the Pade approximation of time-delay makes the plant non-minimum phase, the classical DOB cannot be applied directly to the system with time-delay. By using a new DOB structure for non-minimum phase systems together with the Smith Predictor, we propose a new controller for reducing the both effects of disturbance and time-delay. Moreover, the closed-loop system can be made robust against uncertain time-delay with the help of a Pill controller tuning method that is based on a second-order plus dead time modeling technique.

This paper present a controller design scheme for time-delay system. The Smith Predictor has been proposed to solve the problem of time-delay. But this structure has a condition that parameters of plant and model have to be matched accurately. Because of this condition, it is not applied broadly in practical industrial process field. In this paper, the 2nd-order model with dead-time is used as plant model of the Smith Predictor and a main controller is designed by using the effect of mismatch between plant and model.

In recent years, owing to the development of the image processing technology, the research to build control system using a vision sensor is stimulated. However, a random time delay must be considered, because it works of a various time to get a result of an image processing in the system. It can be seen as an obstacle factor to a control of visual tracking in real system. In this paper, implementing two vision controllers each, first one is made up PID controller and the second one is consisted of a Smith Predictor, the possibility was shown to overcome a problem of a random time delay in a visual tracking system. A number of simulations and experiments were done to show the validity of this study.

In this paper the usage of Bluetooth in networked control systems is described. ACL links and commonly used serial port profile built on top of ACL links are analyzed and their problems such as unpredictable latency are discovered. SCO link packet scheduling, latency estimation and setup procedure are examined. SCO link is suggested as proper link for NCS, due to its low latency and low variance. Smith predictor use for latency compensation is described and its impact on control performance is estimated. A number of experiments on DC motor position control are performed and control performance of system utilizing SCO link with and without Smith predictor is proved to be higher than control performance of system utilizing ACL link.

This paper presents an effective robust predictive control scheme for the active power filter (APF) using a smith-predictor based current regulator, which show superior features when compared to proportional-integral (PI) controllers in terms of an enhanced closed-loop bandwidth and an improved current tracking accuracy. A moving average filter (MAF) is implemented using a field programmable gate array (FPGA) for signal pre-processing to eliminate the switching ripple contamination. An adaptive linear neural network (ADALINE) is used for individual harmonic estimation to achieve selective compensation purpose. The effectiveness and validity of the devised control algorithm are confirmed by extensive simulation and experimental results.

The time delay in servo control on LonWorks/IP Virtual Device Network (VDN) is highly stochastic in nature. LonWorks/IP VDN induced time delay deteriorates the performance and stability of the real-time distributed control system and hinders an effective preventive and predictive maintenance. Especially in real-time distributed servo applications on the factory floor, timely response is essential for predictive and preventive maintenance. In order to guarantee the stability and performance of the system for effective preventive and predictive maintenance, LonWorks/IP VDN induced time delay needs to be predicted and compensated for. In this paper position control simulation of DC servo motor using Zero Phase Error Tracking Controller (ZPETC) as a feedforward controller, and Internal Model Controllers (IMC) based on Smith predictor with disturbance observer as a feedback controller is performed. The validity of the proposed control scheme is demonstrated by comparing the IMC based on Smith predictor with disturbance observer.

From the cost-effective point of view, it is very important to design a current with the highest utilization factor of current capacity of power devices. This can be accomplished by a current controller without overshoot irrespective of the varying bounds of control voltage in PWM converters and the dead time due to the time delay. This paper suggests a novel decoupled controller with Smith-Predictor which has the fast control response without overshoot and steady stats error and also deal with the design method of the controller for PWM converters. The extensive digital simulations done by SIMULINK/MATLAB show that the suggested controller guarantees the full utilization of current capacity of power devices and the decoupled current control behavior.

LonWorks over IP(LonWorks-IP) virtual device network(VDN) is an integrated form of LonWorks device network and IP data network. In especially real-time distributed servo applications on the factory floor, timely response is essential for predictive and preventive maintenance. The time delay in servo control on LonWorks-IP based VDN has highly stochastic nature. LonWorks-IP based VDN induced transmission delay deteriorates the performance and stability of the real-time distributed control system and can't give an effective preventive and predictive maintenance. In order to guarantee the stability and performance of the system, and give an effective preventive and predictive maintenance, LonWorks-IP based VDN induced time-varying uncertain time delay needs to be predicted and compensated. In this paper new Pill control scheme based on Smith predictor, disturbance observer and band pass filter is proposed and tested through computer simulation about position control of DC servo motor. It is shown that how can the proposed control scheme be designed to minimize the effects of uncertain varying time delay and model uncertainties. The validity of the proposed control scheme is compared and demonstrated with the comparison of internal model controllers(IMC) based on Smith predictor with and without disturbance observer.

We design a NCS (Networked Control System) where the communication between sensors and controllers takes place over a USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network). In order to measure time delays between sensors and controllers in real time, we design an algorithm to measure RTT (Round Trip Time) between USN nodes, and implement it into TinyOS of USN. By using the measured time delays, we construct the Smith predictor to compensate the time delays between sensors and controllers in real-time. For the real time experiment, we simulate the dynamic plant model, controller, and USN interface using Real-Time Windows Target provided in MATLAB. The USN interface in the Simulink model consists of serial ports, which connect the plant output and controller with USN nodes. The experiment results show that the time delays between sensors and controllers are precisely measured in real time; the Smith predictor appropriately compensates the time delays; and the stability is achieved in the closed-loop of the NCS.
