Robust Control of Greenhouse Climate Exploiting Measurable Disturbances

چکیده
This paper presents the development and implementation of robust control techniques based on the quantitative feedback theory (QFT) aimed at achieving adequate values of inside greenhouse temperature in spite of uncertainties and disturbances acting on the system. A modification of classical design approaches has been included to incorporate feedforward action (exploiting the availability of measurements of disturbances, which in the particular case of greenhouses are the main energy source) and an antiwindup action to account for frequent saturations in the control signal. Results obtained with this scheme using a validated nonlinear simulator of greenhouse dynamics are also included. Copyright © 2002 IFAC

In this paper, robust adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control is designed to control the Permanent Magnet (PM) stepper motor in the presence of model uncertainties and disturbances. In doing so, the nonlinear model is converted to canonical form, then, for designing the controller, the robust sliding mode control is designed to decrease the effects of uncertainties and disturbances. A class of fuzz...
متن کاملFractional order robust adaptive intelligent controller design for fractional-order chaotic systems with unknown input delay, uncertainty and external disturbances
In this paper, a fractional-order robust adaptive intelligent controller (FRAIC) is designed for a class of chaotic fractional order systems with uncertainty, external disturbances and unknown time-varying input time delay. The time delay is considered both constant and time varying. Due to changes in the equilibrium point, adaptive control is used to update the system's momentary information a...
متن کاملRobust Trajectory Free Model Predictive Control of Biped Robots with Adaptive Gait Length
This paper employs nonlinear disturbance observer (NDO) for robust trajectory-free Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) of biped robots. The NDO is used to reject the additive disturbances caused by parameter uncertainties, unmodeled dynamics, joints friction, and external slow-varying forces acting on the biped robots. In contrary to the slow-varying disturbances, handling sudden pushing ...
متن کاملOn the model-free control of an experimental greenhouse
In spite of a large technical literature, an efficient climate control of a greenhouse remains a very difficult task. Indeed, this process is a complex nonlinear system with strong meteorological disturbances. The newly introduced “model-free control” setting is employed here. It is easy to implement, and has already shown excellent performances in many other concrete domains. Successful experi...
