Robust Structured Control Design Via LMI Optimization

Abstract: This paper presents a new procedure for discrete-time robust structured control design. Parameter-dependent nonconvex conditions for stabilizable and induced L2-norm performance controllers are solved by an iterative linear matrix inequalities (LMI) optimization. A wide class of controller structures including decentralized of any order, fixed-order dynamic output feedback, static out...

Stabilization and Performance Analysis for Networked Flight Control System with Random Time Delays via a LMI Gridding Approach

The use of avionics networks for flight control system results in a reduced aircraft weight, system installation, integration and maintenance costs as well as an improved airborne system performance and flexibility. This paper studies the stability and control design problems with performance analysis for networked flight control systems (NFCS) with random time delays by modeling NFCS as a disc...

Flight Control System Design Optimisation via Genetic Programming

This chapter presents a methodology which is developed to design a controller that satisfies the objectives of shipboard recovery of a fixed-wing UAV. The methodology itself is comprehensive and should be readily applicable for different types of UAVs and various task objectives. With appropriate modification of control law representation, the methodology can be applied to a broad range of cont...

On the design of multivariable PID controllers via LMI approach

In the past decades, we have witnessed the developments of various kinds of modern or postmodern control theories, such as LQG or LQR optimal control, H∞ control, and μ analysis and synthesis, from their emergence to maturity and applications in some practical systems. Despite of the success of the modern or postmodern control theory, we have to admit that the majority of the controllers used i...
