Among different kinds of models for fuzzy systems, the so-called Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model has been quite popular due to its convenient and simple dynamic structure as well as its capability of approximating any smooth nonlinear function to any specified accuracy within any compact set. In terms of such a model, the performance analysis and the design of controllers and filters play important roles in the research of fuzzy systems. In this paper, we aim to survey some recent advances on the T-S fuzzy control and filtering problems with various network-induced phenomena. The network-induced phenomena under consideration mainly include communication delays, packet dropouts, signal quantization, and randomly occurring uncertainties (ROUs). With such network-induced phenomena, the developments on T-S fuzzy control and filtering issues are reviewed in detail. In addition, some latest results on this topic are highlighted. In the end, conclusions are drawn and some possible future research directions are pointed out.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61134009, 61329301, 11301118 and 61174136, the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China under Grant BK20130017, the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities of China under Grant CUSF-DH-D-2013061, the Royal Society of the U.K., and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

    Nowadays, analyzing different control systems is a must for virtually all types of modern industries and factories. Analyzing these control systems allows optimizing and streamlining processes, which in many cases are carried out manually, leading to large errors, delays and costly processes. Continuous-time adaptive control of nonlinear systems has been an area of increasing research activity [1] and globally, regulation and tracking results have been obtained for several types of nonlinear systems [2]. However, the adaptive technique is gradually becoming more dynamic after 25 years of research and experimentation. Important theoretical results on stability and structure have been established. There is still much theoretical work to be done [3]. On the other hand, adaptive control in discrete-time nonlinear systems has received much less attention, in part because of the difficulties associated with the sampled data of nonlinear systems [2]. Thus, it is in some theories where adaptive control laws are implemented admitting the intervening nonlinearities in the real system [4] where investigations about the regulation of the system are created. The purpose of this is to implement a very simple adaptive control law and to check the convergence of the closed loop.  However, Zhongsheng Hou, author of several well-regarded papers proposes a model-free adaptive control approach for a class of discrete-time nonlinear SISO systems with a systematic framework [5]-[6]

    Event sampled optimal adaptive regulation of linear and a class of nonlinear systems

    In networked control systems (NCS), wherein a communication network is used to close the feedback loop, the transmission of feedback signals and execution of the controller is currently carried out at periodic sampling instants. Thus, this scheme requires a significant computational power and network bandwidth. In contrast, the event-based aperiodic sampling and control, which is introduced recently, appears to relieve the computational burden and high network resource utilization. Therefore, in this dissertation, a suite of novel event sampled adaptive regulation schemes in both discrete and continuous time domain for uncertain linear and nonlinear systems are designed. Event sampled Q-learning and adaptive/neuro dynamic programming (ADP) schemes without value and policy iterations are utilized for the linear and nonlinear systems, respectively, in both the time domains. Neural networks (NN) are employed as approximators for nonlinear systems and, hence, the universal approximation property of NN in the event-sampled framework is introduced. The tuning of the parameters and the NN weights are carried out in an aperiodic manner at the event sampled instants leading to a further saving in computation when compared to traditional NN based control. The adaptive regulator when applied on a linear NCS with time-varying network delays and packet losses shows a 30% and 56% reduction in computation and network bandwidth usage, respectively. In case of nonlinear NCS with event sampled ADP based regulator, a reduction of 27% and 66% is observed when compared to periodic sampled schemes. The sampling and transmission instants are determined through adaptive event sampling conditions derived using Lyapunov technique by viewing the closed-loop event sampled linear and nonlinear systems as switched and/or impulsive dynamical systems. --Abstract, page iii

    Disturbance observer-based fault-tolerant control for robotic systems with guaranteed prescribed performance

    Get PDF
    The actuator failure compensation control problem of robotic systems possessing dynamic uncertainties has been investigated in this paper. Control design against partial loss of effectiveness (PLOE) and total loss of effectiveness (TLOE) of the actuator are considered and described, respectively, and a disturbance observer (DO) using neural networks is constructed to attenuate the influence of the unknown disturbance. Regarding the prescribed error bounds as time-varying constraints, the control design method based on barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) is used to strictly guarantee both the steady-state performance and the transient performance. A simulation study on a two-link planar manipulator verifies the effectiveness of the proposed controllers in dealing with the prescribed performance, the system uncertainties, and the unknown actuator failure simultaneously. Implementation on a Baxter robot gives an experimental verification of our controller

    Observer-based event-triggered and set-theoretic neuro-adaptive controls for constrained uncertain systems

    Get PDF
    In this study, several new observer-based event-triggered and set-theoretic control schemes are presented to advance the state of the art in neuro-adaptive controls. In the first part, six new event-triggered neuro-adaptive control (ETNAC) schemes are presented for uncertain linear systems. These comprehensive designs offer flexibility to choose a design depending upon system performance requirements. Stability proofs for each scheme are presented and their performance is analyzed using benchmark examples. In the second part, the scope of the ETNAC is extended to uncertain nonlinear systems. It is applied to a case of precision formation flight of the microsatellites at the Sun-Earth/Moon L1 libration point. This dynamic system is selected to evaluate the performance of the ETNAC techniques in a setting that is highly nonlinear and chaotic in nature. Moreover, factors like restricted controls, response to uncertainties and jittering makes the controller design even trickier for maintaining a tight formation precision. Lyapunov function-based stability analysis and numerical results are presented. Note that most real-world systems involve constraints due to hardware limitations, disturbances, uncertainties, nonlinearities, and cannot always be efficiently controlled by using linearized models. To address all these issues simultaneously, a barrier Lyapunov function-based control architecture called the segregated prescribed performance guaranteeing neuro-adaptive control is developed and tested for the constrained uncertain nonlinear systems, in the third part. It guarantees strict performance that can be independently prescribed for each individual state and/or error signal of the given system. Furthermore, the proposed technique can identify unknown dynamics/uncertainties online and provides a way to regulate the control input --Abstract, page iv

    Relative Threshold-Based Event-Triggered Control for Nonlinear Constrained Systems With Application to Aircraft Wing Rock Motion

    This paper concentrates upon the event-driven controller design problem for a class of nonlinear single input single output (SISO) parametric systems with full state constraints. A varying threshold for the triggering mechanism is exploited, which makes the communication more flexible. Moreover, from the viewpoint of energy conservation and consumption reduction, the system capability becomes better owing to the contribution of the proposed event triggered mechanism. In the meantime, the developed control strategy can avoid the Zeno behavior since the lower bound of the sample time is provided. The considered plant is in a lower-triangular form, in which the match condition is not satisfied. To ensure that all the states to retain in a predefined region, a barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) based adaptive control law is developed. Due to the existence of the parametric uncertainties, an adaptive algorithm is presented as an estimated tool. All the signals appearing in the closed-loop systems are then proven to be uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB). Meanwhile, the output of the system can track a given signal as far as possible. In the end, the effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated by an aircraft wing rock motion system

    Stochastic optimal adaptive controller and communication protocol design for networked control systems

    Networked Control System (NCS) is a recent topic of research wherein the feedback control loops are closed through a real-time communication network. Many design challenges surface in such systems due to network imperfections such as random delays, packet losses, quantization effects and so on. Since existing control techniques are unsuitable for such systems, in this dissertation, a suite of novel stochastic optimal adaptive design methodologies is undertaken for both linear and nonlinear NCS in presence of uncertain system dynamics and unknown network imperfections such as network-induced delays and packet losses. The design is introduced in five papers. In Paper 1, a stochastic optimal adaptive control design is developed for unknown linear NCS with uncertain system dynamics and unknown network imperfections. A value function is adjusted forward-in-time and online, and a novel update law is proposed for tuning value function estimator parameters. Additionally, by using estimated value function, optimal adaptive control law is derived based on adaptive dynamic programming technique. Subsequently, this design methodology is extended to solve stochastic optimal strategies of linear NCS zero-sum games in Paper 2. Since most systems are inherently nonlinear, a novel stochastic optimal adaptive control scheme is then developed in Paper 3 for nonlinear NCS with unknown network imperfections. On the other hand, in Paper 4, the network protocol behavior (e.g. TCP and UDP) are considered and optimal adaptive control design is revisited using output feedback for linear NCS. Finally, Paper 5 explores a co-design framework where both the controller and network scheduling protocol designs are addressed jointly so that proposed scheme can be implemented into next generation Cyber Physical Systems --Abstract, page iv
