Spatial tracking means that the temporal component is not fixed which violates the standing assumption on time intervals in traditional ILC. The proposed framework allows for the length of the time interval to change with each iteration. To relate the spatial information from the past to the present iteration, the concept of spatial projection is proposed. A class of nonlinear uncertain systems with input saturation is chosen for demonstration. An a appropriate ILC control law, exploiting the spatial projection idea, is proposed and the corresponding convergence analysis, based on the Composite Energy Function, is carried out. It is shown that spatial tracking is achieved under appropriate assumptions related to spatial projection and provided that the desired trajectory is realizable within the saturation bound. Finally, simulation results illustrate the predicted convergence.","PeriodicalId":422926,"journal":{"name":"2017 American Control Conference (ACC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116109069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We first exploit the duality between the linear optimal observer and the linear quadratic tracking (LQT) control. We show that the optimal observer design can be formulated as an optimal control problem subject to a specific cost function, and thus the solution can be obtained by solving an algebraic Riccati equation (ARE). For nonlinear systems, we further introduce an optimal observer design formulation and suggest a modified policy iteration method. Finally, to solve the problem online we propose a framework based on ADP and specifically on an approximator structure. Namely, a critic approximator is used to estimate the optimal value function, and a newly developed tuning law is proposed to find the parameters online. The stability and the performance are guaranteed with rigorous proofs. Numerical simulations are given to validate the theoretical studies.","PeriodicalId":422926,"journal":{"name":"2017 American Control Conference (ACC)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117040863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because of unknown load dynamics and possible network parameters uncertainties, the sliding mode control methodology is particularly appropriate for the considered control problem. This paper considers a power network partitioned into control areas, where each area is modelled by an equivalent generator including second-order turbine-governor dynamics. On a suitable designed sliding manifold, the controlled system exhibits an incremental passivity property that allows us to infer convergence to a zero steady state frequency deviation minimizing the generation costs.","PeriodicalId":422926,"journal":{"name":"2017 American Control Conference (ACC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116912921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such strategy is based on geometric desingularization, which is a well suited technique to analyze the dynamics of slow-fast systems near non-hyperbolic points. This technique transforms the singular perturbation problem to an equivalent regular perturbation problem. This papers treats the nonlinear adaptive stabilization problem of slow-fast systems. The novelty is that the point to be stabilized is non-hyperbolic. The controller is designed by combining geometric desingularization and Lyapunov based techniques. Through the action of the controller, we basically inject a normally hyperbolic behavior to the fast variable. Our results are exemplified on the van der Pol oscillator.","PeriodicalId":422926,"journal":{"name":"2017 American Control Conference (ACC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123219685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This early work focuses on identifying a lower bound on the ℋ∞ uncertainty, based on the non-linear behavior of the plant when identified under different conditions. An antagonistic testing apparatus allows the identification of the full two input, two output system. The aim of this work is to find a model which explains all the observed test results, despite physical non-linearity. The approach guarantees that a robust model includes all previously measured behaviors, and thus predicts the stability of never-before-tested controllers. We statistically validate the hypothesis that a single linear model cannot adequately explain the tightly clustered experimental results. And we also develop an optimization problem which finds a lower bound on the ℋ∞ uncertainty component of the robust models which we use to represent the plant in all the tested conditions.","PeriodicalId":422926,"journal":{"name":"2017 American Control Conference (ACC)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115380378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose a detecting method adding intentional noise to not only sensors as code signal but also input.
