On-ramp Decentralized Nonlinear Control with Disturbance Rejection
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method based on disturbance estimation and bounded controls is proposed to reduce congestion in highways where on-ramp metering can be implemented. An existing model is first extended to account for friction and other interactions between the mainstream and the on-ramp flows. A local variable structure observer is then proposed to estimate the lumped upstream and downstream flows that affect one section of the highway. Using the estimates of the disturbances, a local nonlinear controller stabilizes the system while maintaining the control effort bounded. The boundedness of the control effort is necessary to guarantee the feasibility of the control law. The controller is robust in the sense that the estimator accounts also for modeling errors and parameter variations. Copyright c ©2005 IFAC

متن کاملVoltage 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...

This article deals with the issues associated with developing a new design methodology for the nonlinear model-predictive control (MPC) of a chemical plant. A combination of multiple neural networks is selected and used to model a nonlinear multi-input multi-output (MIMO) process with time delays. An optimization procedure for a neural MPC algorithm based on this model is then developed. T...

متن کاملEnhanced IMC-based Load Disturbance Rejection Design for Integrating Processes with Slow Dynamics
By revealing the deficiency of existing internal model control (IMC) based methods for load disturbance rejection for integrating processes with slow dynamics, a modified IMC design is proposed to deal with step or ramp type load disturbance as often encountered in practice. The controller parametrization is based on a two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) control structure which allows for independent ...
