Time delay integrating systems: a challenge for process control industries. A practical solution
نویسندگان
چکیده
Temperature control of processes that involve the heating and cooling of a closed batch reactor can be a real problem for conventional proportional-integral-derivative (PID) based loop controllers. This paper describes the application of a new industrial advanced process controller. This controller is designed to handle integrating type processes with long dead times and long time constants. The results demonstrate that reactors that could previously only be operated manually can be easily automated using an adaptive model predictive control technology. The barrier to automation of the reactor batch controls can be now removed resulting in tremendous improvements in batch consistency, batch cycle times, and productivity. r 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Stability and numerical solution of time variant linear systems with delay in both the state and control
In this paper, stability for uncertain time variant linear systems with time delay is studied. A new sufficient condition for delay-dependent systems is given in matrix inequality form which depends on the range of delay. Then, we introduce a new direct computational method to solve delay systems. This method consists of reducing the delay problem to a set of algebraic equations by first expand...

This paper addresses a novel control method adapted with varying time delay to improve NCS performance. A well-known challenge with NCSs is the stochastic time delay. Conventional controllers such as PID type controllers which are just tuned with a constant time delay could not be a solution for these systems. Fuzzy logic controllers due to their nonlinear characteristic which is compatible wit...
متن کاملMarkovian Delay Prediction-Based Control of Networked Systems
A new Markov-based method for real time prediction of network transmission time delays is introduced. The method considers a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural model for the transmission network, where the number of neurons in the input layer is minimized so that the required calculations are reduced and the method can be implemented in the real-time. For this purpose, the Markov process order...

The current paper investigates the influence of packet losses in network control systems (NCS’s) using the model predictive control (MPC) strategy. The study focuses on two main network packet losses due to sensor to controller and controller to actuator along the communication paths. A new Markov-based method is employed to recursively estimate the probability of time delay in controller to ac...

In this paper, the design of a distributed adaptive controller for a class of unknown non-affine MIMO strict-feedback multi agent systems with time delay has been performed under a directed graph. The controller design is based on dynamic surface control method. In the design process, radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) were employed to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions.
