Disturbance Observer-based Robust Control and Its Applications: 35th Anniversary Overview
Disturbance Observer has been one of the most widely used robust control
tools since it was proposed in 1983. This paper introduces the origins of
Disturbance Observer and presents a survey of the major results on Disturbance
Observer-based robust control in the last thirty-five years. Furthermore, it
explains the analysis and synthesis techniques of Disturbance Observer-based
robust control for linear and nonlinear systems by using a unified framework.
In the last section, this paper presents concluding remarks on Disturbance
Observer-based robust control and its engineering applications.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figure
Terminal sliding mode control strategy design for second-order nonlinear system
This study mainly focuses on the terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) strategy design, including an adaptive terminal sliding mode control (ATSMC) and an exact-estimator-based terminal sliding mode control (ETSMC) for second-order nonlinear dynamical systems. In the ATSMC system, an adaptive bound estimation for the lump uncertainty is proposed to ensure the system stability. On the other hand, an exact estimator is designed for exact estimating system uncertainties to solve the trouble of chattering phenomena caused by a sign function in ATSMC law in despite of the utilization of a fixed value or an adaptive tuning algorithm for the lumped uncertainty bound. The effectiveness of the proposed control schemes can be verified in numerical simulations.<br /
Observability analysis of sensorless synchronous machine drives
This paper studies the local observability of synchronous machines using a
unified approach. Recently, motion sensorless control of electrical drives has
gained high interest. The main challenge for such a technology is the poor
performance in some operation conditions. One interesting theory that helps
understanding the origin of this problem is the observability analysis of
nonlinear systems. In this paper, the observability of the wound-rotor
synchronous machine is studied. The results are extended to other synchronous
machines, adopting a unified analysis. Furthermore, a high-frequency
injection-based technique is proposed to enhance the sensorless operation of
the wound-rotor synchronous machine at standstill
Disturbance Attenuation in a Magnetic Levitation System with Acceleration Feedback
The objective of this work is to demonstrate the use of acceleration feedback to improve the performance of a maglev system, especially in disturbance attenuation. In the single degree-of-freedom (DOF) system studied here, acceleration feedback has the effect of virtually increasing inertia, damping and stiffness. It is shown that it can be used to increase disturbance rejection without sacrificing tracking performance. Both analytical and experimental results demonstrate that disturbance rejection can be improved with acceleration feedback
The generation of dual wavelength pulse fiber laser using fiber bragg grating
A stable simple generation of dual wavelength pulse fiber laser on experimental method is proposed and demonstrated by using Figure eight circuit diagram. The generation of dual wavelength pulse fiber laser was proposed using fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) with two different central wavelengths which are 1550 nm and 1560 nm. At 600 mA (27.78 dBm) of laser diode, the stability of dual wavelength pulse fiber laser appears on 1550 nm and 1560 nm with the respective peak powers of -54.03 dBm and -58.00 dBm. The wavelength spacing of the spectrum is about 10 nm while the signal noise to ratio (SNR) for both peaks are about 8.23 dBm and 9.67 dBm. In addition, the repetition rate is 2.878 MHz with corresponding pulse spacing of about 0.5 ÎŒs, is recorded
