Robust Predictive Extended State Observer for a Class of Nonlinear Systems with Time-Varying Input Delay

[EN] This paper deals with asymptotic stabilisation of a class of nonlinear input-delayed systems via dynamic output feedback in the presence of disturbances. The proposed strategy has the structure of an observer-based control law, in which the observer estimates and predicts both the plant state and the external disturbance. A nominal delay value is assumed to be known and stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities are derived for fast-varying delay uncertainties. Asymptotic stability is achieved if the disturbance or the time delay is constant. The controller design problem is also addressed and a numerical example with an unstable system is provided to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed strategy.This work was partially supported by: Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, Spain (TIN2017-86520-C3-1-R); Universitat Politècnica de València (FPI-UPV 2014 PhD Grant); and Israel Science Foundation (Grant No. 1128/14).Sanz Diaz, R.; García Gil, PJ.; Fridman, E.; Albertos Pérez, P.

Dissipative Analysis and Synthesis of Control for TS Fuzzy Markovian Jump Neutral Systems

This paper is focused on stochastic stability and strictly dissipative control design for a class of Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy neutral time delayed control systems with Markovian jumps. The main aim of this paper is to design a strictly dissipative controller such that the closed-loop TS fuzzy control system is stochastically stable, and also the disturbance rejection attenuation is obtained to a given level by means of the H∞ performance index. Intensive analysis is carried out to obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of desired dissipative controller which ensures both the stochastic stability and the strictly dissipative performance. The main advantage of the proposed technique is that it is possible to obtain the dissipative controller with less control effort and also, as special cases, robust H∞ control with the prescribed H∞ performance under given constraints and passivity control can be obtained for the considered systems. Also, the existence condition of the fuzzy dissipative controller can be obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, a practical example based on truck-trailer model is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed design technique

The problem addressed is that of designing a full-order observer that guarantees the exponential stability of the error dynamic system. An effective algebraic matrix equation approach is developed to solve this problem. In particular, both the observer analysis and design problems are investigated. By using the singular value decomposition technique and the generalized inverse theory, sufficient conditions for a neutral-type delay system to be exponentially stable are first established. Then, an explicit expression of the desired observers is derived in terms of some free parameters. Furthermore, an illustrative example is used to demonstrate the validity of the proposed design procedur
