in this paper, a state feedback h¥ controller is proposed in order to design an active queue management (aqm) system based on congestion control algorithm for networks supporting tcp protocols. in this approach, the available link bandwidth is modeled as a time-variant disturbance. the purpose of this paper is to design a controller which is capable of achieving the queue size and can guarantee...

electric wheelchairs (ew) experience various terrains surfaces and slopesas well asoccupants with diverse weights. this, in turn, imparts a substantial amount of perturbation to the ewdynamics. in this paper we make use of a two-degree-of-freedom control architecture called disturbance observer (dob) which reduces sensitivity to model uncertainties while enhancing rejection of disturbances caus...

This thesis studies the problem of robust disturbance rejection for nonlinear systems based on three different methods: H∞ control, singular perturbation theory and multiple model adaptive control. Firstly, the disturbance suppression problem for nonlinear systems based on H∞ control is examined. We review the so-called nonstandard mixed sensitivity problem, which introduces an integrator into ...

This study investigates disturbance rejection capacity of closed loop control systems by means of reference to disturbance ratio (RDR). The RDR analysis calculates the ratio of reference signal energy to disturbance signal energy at the system output and provides a quantitative evaluation of disturbance rejection performance of control systems on the bases of communication channel limitations. ...

The problem of disturbance rejection in the control of nonlinear systems with additive disturbance generated by some unforced nonlinear systems, was formulated and solved by {itshape Mukhopadhyay} and {itshape Narendra}, they applied the idea of increasing the order of the system, using neural networks the model of multilayer perceptron on several systems of varying complexity, so the objective...

Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) has particular importance in chemical industry. CSTR has usually a nonlinear behavior which makes it difficult to control. The reactor has two parameters: the concentration and temperature of mixture both of which are uncertain. This case of CSTR has large disturbance in domain. In order for disturbance rejection, a controller has to be designed. In this p...

This paper presents a weight tuning technique for iterative distributed Model Predictive Control (MPC). Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO) is used to optimise both the weights associated with disturbance rejection and the weights associated with achieving consensus between control agents (while this paper focuses on disturbance rejection, the same techniques could also be used for set-point trac...
