Comparing traditional and constrained disturbance-observer based positional control

Voltage Control and Load Sharing in a DC Islanded Microgrid Based on Disturbance Observer

Increasing DC loads along with DC nature of distributed energy resources (DERs) raises interest to DC microgrids. Conventional droop/non-droop power-sharing in microgrids suffers from load dependent voltage deviation, slow transient response, and requires the parameters of the loads, system and DERs connection status. In this paper, a new nonlinear decentralized back-stepping control strategy f...

Passivity-based versus Disturbance Observer Based Robot Control: Equivalence And

Disturbance observer based robot control algorithms provide good control performance while giving a straightforward method of gain selection. Unfortunately, the stability of these algorithms has not been shown rigorously for nonlinear systems such as robots. This paper demonstrates that a disturbance observer based algorithm can be made equivalent to the well-known passivity-based approaches of...

Passivity Based versus Disturbance Observer

Disturbance Observer based robot control algorithms provide good performance while giving a straightforward method of gain selection. Unfortunately, the stability of these algorithms has not been shown rigorously for nonlinear systems such as robots. This paper demonstrates that a disturbance observer based algorithm can be made equivalent to the well known passivity based approaches of Sadegh ...

Disturbance Observer Based Control of Nonlinear Haptic Teleoperation Systems

Teleoperation systems are subject to different types of disturbances. Such disturbances, when unaccounted for, may cause poor performance and even instability of the teleoperation system. This paper presents a novel nonlinear bilateral control scheme using the concept of disturbance observer based control for nonlinear teleoperation systems. Lumping the effects of dynamic uncertainties and exte...
