    Adaptive Approximation-Based Control for Nonlinear Systems: A Unified Solution with Accurate and Inaccurate Measurements

    Full text link
    A unified solution to adaptive approximation-based control for nonlinear systems with accurate and inaccurate state measurement is synthesized in this study. Starting from the standard adaptive approximation-based controller with accurate state measurement, its corresponding physical interpretation, stability conclusion, and learning ability are rigorously addressed when facing additive measurement inaccuracy, and explicit answers are obtained in the framework of both controller matching and system matching. Finally, it proves that, with a certain condition, the standard adaptive approximation-based controller works as a unified solution for the cases with accurate and inaccurate measurement, and the solution can be extended to the nonlinear system control problems with extra unknown dynamics or faults in actuator and/or process dynamics. A single-link robot arm example is used for the simulation demonstration of the unified solution

    Robust model-based fault estimation and fault-tolerant control : towards an integration

    To maintain robustly acceptable system performance, fault estimation (FE) is adopted to reconstruct fault signals and a fault-tolerant control (FTC) controller is employed to compensate for the fault effects. The inevitably existing system and estimation uncertainties result in the so-called bi-directional robustness interactions defined in this work between the FE and FTC functions, which gives rise to an important and challenging yet open integrated FE/FTC design problem concerned in this thesis. An example of fault-tolerant wind turbine pitch control is provided as a practical motivation for integrated FE/FTC design.To achieve the integrated FE/FTC design for linear systems, two strategies are proposed. A Hโˆž optimization based approach is first proposed for linear systems with differentiable matched faults, using augmented state unknown input observer FE and adaptive sliding mode FTC. The integrated design is converted into an observer-based robust control problem solved via a single-step linear matrix inequality formulation.With the purpose of an integrated design with more freedom and also applicable for a range of general fault scenarios, a decoupling approach is further proposed. This approach can estimate and compensate unmatched non-differentiable faults and perturbations by combined adaptive sliding mode augmented state unknown input observer and backstepping FTC controller. The observer structure renders a recovery of the Separation Principle and allows great freedom for the FE/FTC designs.Integrated FE/FTC design strategies are also developed for Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy modelling nonlinear systems, Lipschitz nonlinear systems, and large-scale interconnected systems, based on extensions of the Hโˆž optimization approach for linear systems.Tutorial examples are used to illustrate the design strategies for each approach. Physical systems, a 3-DOF (degree-of-freedom) helicopter and a 3-machine power system, are used to provide further evaluation of the proposed integrated FE/FTC strategies. Future research on this subject is also outlined

    A novel nussbaum functions based adaptive event-triggered asymptotic tracking control of stochastic nonlinear systems with strong interconnections

    In this work, the issue of event-triggered-based asymptotic tracking adaptive control of stochastic nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form with strong interconnections is considered. First, a new decentralized control scheme is developed by introducing the new types of Nussbaum functions, which enables the output of each subsystem to asymptotically track the desired reference signal. Second, the nonaffine structures and the unknown control gains existing in the nonlinear systems are a part of the considered system model, which makes it more complicated to design the decentralized controllers. Therefore, the complexity caused by the nonaffine structures is faciliated by mean value theorem and the unknown control gains are handled by a novel Nussbaum function in our proposed design scheme. Meanwhile, the unknown nonlinearities of the system are approximated by using intelligent control technology. Furthermore, an event-triggered method is introduced in the design process to save communication resources effectively. It is shown that all signals of the closed-loop systems are bounded in probability and the tracking errors asymptotically converge to zero in probability. Finally, the simulation results illustrate the effectivity of the presented scheme

    Optimized state feedback regulation of 3DOF helicopter system via extremum seeking

    Get PDF
    In this paper, an optimized state feedback regulation of a 3 degree of freedom (DOF) helicopter is designed via extremum seeking (ES) technique. Multi-parameter ES is applied to optimize the tracking performance via tuning State Vector Feedback with Integration of the Control Error (SVFBICE). Discrete multivariable version of ES is developed to minimize a cost function that measures the performance of the controller. The cost function is a function of the error between the actual and desired axis positions. The controller parameters are updated online as the optimization takes place. This method significantly decreases the time in obtaining optimal controller parameters. Simulations were conducted for the online optimization under both fixed and varying operating conditions. The results demonstrate the usefulness of using ES for preserving the maximum attainable performance

    Adaptive NN Control for Multisteering Plane Aircraft with Dead Zone or Backlash Input Nonlinearity

    Get PDF
    Considering that many factors such as actuator input dead zone, backlash, and external disturbance could affect the exactness of trajectory tracking, therewith a robust adaptive neural network control scheme on the basis of control allocation is proposed for the sake of tracking control of multisteering plane aircraft with actuator input dead zone or backlash nonlinearity. First of all, an actuator input dead zone or backlash nonlinearity control assignment model is established and the control allocation equation is derived. Secondly, the system nonlinear uncertainty is compensated by means of radial basis function neural network, and a robust term is introduced to achieve robustness against external disturbance and system errors. Finally, by utilizing Lyapunov stability theorem, it has been proved that all the signals in the closed-loop system are bounded, and the tracking error converges to a small residual set asymptotically. Simulation results on ICE101 multisteering plane aircraft demonstrate the outstanding tracking performance and strong robustness as well as effectiveness of the proposed approach, which can effectively overcome the adverse influence of dead zone, backlash nonlinearity, and external disturbance on the system
