We consider the application of a recently developed “conditional integrator” technique for the output regulation of a class of nonlinear systems to process control systems. For a special choice of the controller parameters, our controller reduces to a finely tuned saturated PI/PID type controller with an anti-windup structure. This is of particular significance because while the application of ...

In this paper, a full state-constrained anti-disturbance dynamic surface control method is proposed for six-degree-of-freedom unmanned helicopter systems under state constraints and disturbances. Firstly, due to the underactuated characteristics of systems, an input–output feedback linearization used transform complex nonlinear into facilitated-control ones. Based on transformed disturbance-obs...

This paper presents the technical aspects, theoretical analysis, and comparisons of two new permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) grid-interfaced models named PMSG boost and PMSG rectifierinverter. The exact feedback linearization (EFL) control scheme is used for the effective design and stability analysis of the aforementioned models. The complexity of the EFL control laws is discussed...

In this paper, an Output Feedback Model Predictive Control for nonlinear systems is presented. The proposed output feedback control consists of the well known robust controller NCGPC (Nonlinear Continuous Time Generalized Predictive Control) and an open loop observer (a simulated model in parallel) in order to estimate the output derivatives and a regulation filter used to account for plant/mod...

To achieve more accurate tracking control, a control strategy for servo pneumatic systems based on the feedback linearization theory is presented. The nonlinear pneumatic actuator system is transformed into a linear system description, with a linear input–output map by regular static state feedback and state coordinate transformation. A servo tracking controller is then developed for the system...

This paper presents an adaptive nonlinear position controller with velocity constraint, capable of combining the input-output linearization technique and Lyapunov stability theory. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, the adaptation law of the proposed controller is derived along with the verification of the overall system’s stability. Computer simulation results demonstrate that the propose...
