A robust Sliding Mode Controller for a class of bilinear delayed systems
International audienceIn this paper we propose a Sliding Mode Controller for a class of scalar bilinear systems with delay in both the input and the state. Such a class is considered since it has shown to be suitable for modelling and control of a class of turbulent flow systems. The stability and robustness analysis for the reaching phase in the controlled system are Lyapunov-based. However, since the sliding dynamics is infinite dimensional and described by an integral equation, we show that the stability and robustness analysis is simplified by using Volterra operator theory
Analysis, filtering, and control for Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models in networked systems
Copyright © 2015 Sunjie Zhang et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.The fuzzy logic theory has been proven to be effective in dealing with various nonlinear systems and has a great success in industry applications. 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
Global Tracking Passivity--based PI Control of Bilinear Systems and its Application to the Boost and Modular Multilevel Converters
This paper deals with the problem of trajectory tracking of a class of
bilinear systems with time--varying measurable disturbance. A set of matrices
{A,B_i} has been identified, via a linear matrix inequality, for which it is
possible to ensure global tracking of (admissible, differentiable) trajectories
with a simple linear time--varying PI controller. Instrumental to establish the
result is the construction of an output signal with respect to which the
incremental model is passive. The result is applied to the boost and the
modular multilevel converter for which experimental results are given.Comment: 9 pages, 10 figure
Piecewise smooth systems near a co-dimension 2 discontinuity manifold: can one say what should happen?
We consider a piecewise smooth system in the neighborhood of a co-dimension 2
discontinuity manifold . Within the class of Filippov solutions, if
is attractive, one should expect solution trajectories to slide on
. It is well known, however, that the classical Filippov
convexification methodology is ambiguous on . The situation is further
complicated by the possibility that, regardless of how sliding on is
taking place, during sliding motion a trajectory encounters so-called generic
first order exit points, where ceases to be attractive.
In this work, we attempt to understand what behavior one should expect of a
solution trajectory near when is attractive, what to expect
when ceases to be attractive (at least, at generic exit points), and
finally we also contrast and compare the behavior of some regularizations
proposed in the literature.
Through analysis and experiments we will confirm some known facts, and
provide some important insight: (i) when is attractive, a solution
trajectory indeed does remain near , viz. sliding on is an
appropriate idealization (of course, in general, one cannot predict which
sliding vector field should be selected); (ii) when loses attractivity
(at first order exit conditions), a typical solution trajectory leaves a
neighborhood of ; (iii) there is no obvious way to regularize the
system so that the regularized trajectory will remain near as long as
is attractive, and so that it will be leaving (a neighborhood of)
when looses attractivity.
We reach the above conclusions by considering exclusively the given piecewise
smooth system, without superimposing any assumption on what kind of dynamics
near (or sliding motion on ) should have been taking place.Comment: 19 figure

Robust sliding mode design for uncertain stochastic systems based on H∞ control method
The official published version can be found at the link below.In this paper, the design problem of sliding mode control (SMC) is addressed for uncertain stochastic systems modeled by Itô differential equations. There exist the parameter uncertainties in both the state and input matrices, as well as the unmatched external disturbance. The key feature of this work is the integration of SMC method with H∞ technique such that the robust stochastic stability with a prescribed disturbance attenuation level can be achieved. A sufficient condition for the existence of the desired sliding mode controller is obtained via linear matrix inequalities. The reachability of the specified sliding surface is proven. Finally, a numerical simulation example is presented to illustrate the proposed method.This work was funded by The Royal Society of the U.K.;NNSF of China.

Quantum control theory and applications: A survey
This paper presents a survey on quantum control theory and applications from
a control systems perspective. Some of the basic concepts and main developments
(including open-loop control and closed-loop control) in quantum control theory
are reviewed. In the area of open-loop quantum control, the paper surveys the
notion of controllability for quantum systems and presents several control
design strategies including optimal control, Lyapunov-based methodologies,
variable structure control and quantum incoherent control. In the area of
closed-loop quantum control, the paper reviews closed-loop learning control and
several important issues related to quantum feedback control including quantum
filtering, feedback stabilization, LQG control and robust quantum control.Comment: 38 pages, invited survey paper from a control systems perspective,
