미지의 정현파 외부 입력을 갖는 선형시스템을 위한 적응 출력 제어

학위논문 (박사)-- 서울대학교 대학원 : 전기·컴퓨터공학부, 2016. 2. 심형보.This dissertation investigates the output regulation problem (which is equivalent to the problem of asymptotic tracking and disturbance rejection when the reference inputs and the disturbances are generated by an autonomous differential equation, the so-called exosystem) for linear systems driven by unknown sinusoidal exosystems. Unlike previous researches, our ultimate goal is to achieve asymptotic regulation of the plant output to the origin for the sinusoidal exogenous signals (representing the reference inputs and disturbances) generated by the exosystems whose magnitudes, phases, bias, frequencies, and even the number of frequencies are all unknown. Here, the plant is linear time-invariant (LTI) single-input-single-output (SISO) systems (including non-minimum phase systems) without uncertainty. Before achieving the final control goal, we first start by considering an output regulation problem under the assumption that the number of frequencies contained in the exogenous inputs is known but magnitudes, phases, bias, and frequencies are unknown. To solve this problem, an add-on type output regulator with an adaptive observer is presented. The adaptive observer, based on the persistently exciting (PE) property, is used to estimate the frequencies of sinusoidal exogenous inputs as well as the states of plant and exosystem. Also, by add-on controller we mean an additional controller which runs harmonically with a preinstalled controller that has been in operation for the plant. When the desired performance of the preinstalled controller is not satisfactory, the add-on controller can be used. Some advantages of the proposed add-on controller include that it can be designed without much information about the preinstalled controller and it can be plugged in the feedback loop any time in operation without causing unnecessary transient response. Both simulation and experimental results of the track-following control for commercial optical disc drive (ODD) systems confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method. As the next step, we deal with the case where, as well as magnitudes, phases, bias, and frequencies, the number of frequencies contained in the exogenous inputs is unknown. To this end, a closed-form solution is given under the assumptions that the plant has hyperbolic zero dynamics (i.e., there is no zero on the imaginary axis of the complex plane), and that the number of unknown frequencies has known upper bound. In particular, the PE property is not necessary for the estimation of the unknown frequencies. For this, an adaptive observer is proposed to estimate the frequencies and the number of frequencies, simultaneously. This is important contribution, because, sufficient persistency of excitation is usually required since the unknown parameters are estimated by the adaptive control. Moreover, we propose a suitable dead-zone function with a computable dead-band only using the plant parameters to avoid the singularity problem in the transient-state and, at the same time, to achieve output regulation in the steady-state.Chapter 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Research Background 1 1.2 Contributions and Outline of the Dissertation 5 Chapter 2 Reviews of Related Prior Studies 9 2.1 Control Methods for Rejecting of Sinusoidal Disturbance 9 2.1.1 Adaptive Feedforward Cancellation (AFC) 9 2.1.2 Repetitive Control 12 2.1.3 Disturbance Observer (DOB) with Internal Model 15 2.2 Frequency Estimation Algorithms for Indirect Approach 19 2.2.1 Adaptive Notch Filtering 19 2.2.2 Phase-Locked Loops 20 2.2.3 Extended Kalman Filtering 21 2.2.4 Marinos Frequency Estimator 23 Chapter 3 Highlights of Output Regulation for Linear Systems 27 3.1 Problem Formulation 27 3.2 Output Regulation via Full Information 29 3.3 Output Regulation via Error Feedback 31 Chapter 4 Adaptive Add-on Output Regulator for Unknown Sinusoidal Exogenous Inputs 37 4.1 Add-on Output Regulator 39 4.1.1 Problem Formulation 39 4.1.2 Controller Design and Stability Analysis 41 4.2 Adaptive Add-on Output Regulator 44 4.2.1 Problem Formulation 44 4.2.2 Controller Design and Analysis 46 4.3 Industrial Application: Optical Disc Drive (ODD) Systems 54 4.3.1 Introduction of ODD Systems 54 4.3.2 Simulation Results 58 4.3.3 Experimental Results 63 Chapter 5 Adaptive Output Regulator for Unknown Number of Unknown Sinusoidal Exogenous Inputs 69 5.1 Problem Formulation 71 5.2 Adaptive Output Regulator 72 5.3 Constructive Proof of Theorem 5.2.1 75 5.4 Numerical Examples 88 Chapter 6 Conclusions and Further Issues 93 6.1 Conclusions 93 6.2 Further Issues 94 APPENDIX 97 A.1 Stabilizability and Detectability of the Plant in Chapter 4 97 A.2 Nonsingularity of the Matrix T(θ) in Chapter 4 99 A.3 Pseudo Code Implemented on the DSP Board in Chapter 4 99 A.4 Observability Property of the Pair (S, γ) in Chapter 5 101 A.5 Structure of the Matrix Tc(θ) in Chapter 5 102 A.6 Convergence Property of det2(i(t)) in Lemma 5.3.2 104 BIBLIOGRAPHY 109 국문초록 121Docto

A model-free control strategy for an experimental greenhouse with an application to fault accommodation

Writing down mathematical models of agricultural greenhouses and regulating them via advanced controllers are challenging tasks since strong perturbations, like meteorological variations, have to be taken into account. This is why we are developing here a new model-free control approach and the corresponding intelligent controllers, where the need of a good model disappears. This setting, which has been introduced quite recently and is easy to implement, is already successful in many engineering domains. Tests on a concrete greenhouse and comparisons with Boolean controllers are reported. They not only demonstrate an excellent climate control, where the reference may be modified in a straightforward way, but also an efficient fault accommodation with respect to the actuators

The case for absolute ligand discrimination : modeling information processing and decision by immune T cells

Some cells have to take decision based on the quality of surroundings ligands, almost irrespective of their quantity, a problem we name "absolute discrimination". An example of absolute discrimination is recognition of not-self by immune T Cells. We show how the problem of absolute discrimination can be solved by a process called "adaptive sorting". We review several implementations of adaptive sorting, as well as its generic properties such as antagonism. We show how kinetic proofreading with negative feedback implements an approximate version of adaptive sorting in the immune context. Finally, we revisit the decision problem at the cell population level, showing how phenotypic variability and feedbacks between population and single cells are crucial for proper decision

Model based control strategies for a class of nonlinear mechanical sub-systems

This paper presents a comparison between various control strategies for a class of mechanical actuators common in heavy-duty industry. Typical actuator components are hydraulic or pneumatic elements with static non-linearities, which are commonly referred to as Hammerstein systems. Such static non-linearities may vary in time as a function of the load and hence classical inverse-model based control strategies may deliver sub-optimal performance. This paper investigates the ability of advanced model based control strategies to satisfy a tolerance interval for position error values, overshoot and settling time specifications. Due to the presence of static non-linearity requiring changing direction of movement, control effort is also evaluated in terms of zero crossing frequency (up-down or left-right movement). Simulation and experimental data from a lab setup suggest that sliding mode control is able to improve global performance parameters
