Compared to other approaches, e.g. the use of the relative gain array or other controllability indices, the proposed computation of the attainable control performance gives a quantitative assessment of a control structure without reference to a particular controller structure other than the assumption of linear control. In the time domain, control performance is measured in a least squares sense while constraints on manipulated and controlled variables can be included. The extension of the method presented here integrates the frequency domain condition for robust stability.

Sufficient conditions are presented on the stability and stabilization of the NCSs with packet dropout. The novelty of this work lies in that NCSs with arbitrary but finite data packet dropout are modelled as switched linear systems, and this enables us to apply the result of switched systems to the analysis and synthesis of such NCSs. The admissible upper bound of the dropped packets can be determined by a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) which guarantee the stability of the NCSs. Stabilizing controllers (via state feedback and static output feedback) can be constructed by solving a set of LMIs. Also, for an NCS with a convergence rate constraint, similar results are obtained. Examples are worked out to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method","PeriodicalId":111199,"journal":{"name":"2004 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (IEEE Cat.

The controlled system is divided into single input-single output (SISO) subsystems and adaptive controllers are used to control each subsystem. This paper is focused to the usage of self-tuning controllers (STC) which are a subset of adaptive controllers characterized by on-line identification of controlled system. The control part of individual controllers are based on polynomial approach (dead-beat in the weak and strong version, pole assignment in the 1DOF and 2DOF configurations, controllers based on minimization of quadratic criterion). A supervisory logic block is used in the control scheme to increase the stability of the on-line identification process by ensuring that just one of the controllers is in adaptive mode at a particular time. The logic supervisor is purposed as a simple and reliable technique for designing the supervisory logic. The basic idea of the logic supervisor is based on assigning priorities to individual outputs of controlled multivariable system and on-line evaluation of criterions for each subsystem.
