Conditional disturbance negation based active disturbance rejection control for hypersonic vehicles

This paper presents a conditional disturbance negation (CDN) based active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) scheme for the velocity and altitude tracking control of flexible air-breathing hypersonic vehicles (FAHVs) in the presence of various uncertainties and disturbances. A pioneering CDN module is proposed to selectively compensate the total disturbances according to the characteristics of the total disturbances and the FAHV dynamics, which is aimed at canceling some detrimental disturbances while profiting from other beneficial disturbances. Firstly, model-based extended state observers are applied to estimate the total disturbances in FAHVs in an efficient way. Based on the Lyapunov theory and the estimated disturbances, a novel disturbance characterization indicator (DCI) is then designed to show whether the total disturbance harms or benefits the tracking performance in engineering practice. Then, DCI is utilized to construct the CDN module. In consequence, the CDN based FAHV tracking control is implemented in an ADRC framework, yielding the CDN based ADRC scheme. The stability analysis is conducted to show the convergence of the closed-loop system. Finally, the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed control scheme are validated by some representative simulations in various flight conditions.     

航天器姿态自抗扰控制

为抑制航天器自身结构参数变化和内外扰动对姿态控制精度和姿态稳定度的影响, 设计了航天器姿态自抗扰控制器. 自抗扰控制器(ADRC)由跟踪微分器(TD)、扩张状态观测器(ESO)和姿态反馈控制器(AFC)3部分组成.跟踪微分器负责安排姿态指令过渡过程, 并提取其微分信号. 扩张状态观测器(ESO)充分利用姿态敏感器与速率陀螺的量测信息, 可对航天器姿态及内部和外部干扰进行观测. 姿态反馈控制器则在补偿ESO估计的干扰的同时,实现航天器的姿态控制. 与已有研究相比, 扩张状态观测器采用复合量测信息对状态估计进行校正, 性能较好. 而自抗扰控制器只采用一个环路即可实现姿态控制及干扰补偿, 结构简单. 对某航天器姿态控制系统的仿真结果表明,以上自抗扰控制器是可行的.     

The active disturbance rejection control approach to stabilisation of coupled heat and ODE system subject to boundary control matched disturbance

We consider stabilisation for a linear ordinary differential equation system with input dynamics governed by a heat equation, subject to boundary control matched disturbance. The active disturbance rejection control approach is applied to estimate, in real time, the disturbance with both constant high gain and time-varying high gain. The disturbance is cancelled in the feedback loop. The closed-loop systems with constant high gain and time-varying high gain are shown, respectively, to be practically stable and asymptotically stable.

UAV quadrotor attitude control: An ADRC-EMC combined approach

This study presents an original approach to the design of a complete digital attitude control unit for a UAV quadrotor. The approach is developed within the framework of Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) and Embedded Model Control (EMC), two well-established control design methodologies, both based on the estimation of the disturbances/uncertainties affecting the plant to control, and on their online cancellation. The attitude control design carried out in this paper demonstrates the possibility of adopting a simple input–output model to control the UAV attitude, while relying on the disturbance rejector to bridge the gap between model and plant reality. The designed attitude control unit encompasses an attitude state predictor, a control law, and a model-based reference generator. A multi-step test strategy is proposed to assess the performance of this disturbance-rejection-based attitude controller. Consequently, the presented experimental results are obtained both using a high-fidelity numerical simulator and in several experimental tests, carried out either on a laboratory single-axial test-bench or in-flight. Finally, the control unit performance is benchmarked, in simulation, against a state-of-the-art high-performance UAV attitude controller.

Chaotic satellite attitude control by adaptive approach

In this article, chaos control of satellite attitude motion is considered. Adaptive control based on dynamic compensation is utilised to suppress the chaotic behaviour. Control approaches with three control inputs and with only one control input are proposed. Since the adaptive control employed is based on dynamic compensation, faithful model of the system is of no necessity. Sinusoidal disturbance and parameter uncertainties are considered to evaluate the robustness of the closed-loop system. Both of the approaches are confirmed by theoretical and numerical results.

Active disturbance rejection control approach to stabilization of lower triangular systems with uncertainty

In this paper, we apply the active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) to stabilization for lower triangular nonlinear systems with large uncertainties. We first design an extended state observer (ESO) to estimate the state and the uncertainty, in real time, simultaneously. The constant gain and the time‐varying gain are used in ESO design separately. The uncertainty is then compensated in the feedback loop. The practical stability for the closed‐loop system with constant gain ESO and the asymptotic stability with time‐varying gain ESO are proven. The constant gain ESO can deal with larger class of nonlinear systems but causes the peaking value near the initial stage that can be reduced significantly by time‐varying gain ESO. The nature of estimation/cancelation makes the ADRC very different from high‐gain control where the high gain is used in both observer and feedback. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

An approach to improve active disturbance rejection control

ABSTRACT

In order to reduce the error and phase delay of the classical extended state observer (ESO) in estimating the system state and disturbance, in this paper, we combine ESO and tracking differentiator (TD) to construct a tracking differential extended state observer (TDESO). The observation error and observation speed of TDESO are also discussed. Then a nonlinear active disturbance rejection control system improved by TDESO for a linear plant is transformed into a Lurie system. Moreover, the circular criterion is used to analyse the absolute stability of the transformed Lurie system. Finally, TDESO is optimised and an improved linear state error feedback (PLSEF) is proposed to improve the rapidity of the system by using simulation and time domain analysis. And a second-order system is used to illustrate the performance of the proposed scheme. The simulation results show that our algorithm is effective.

Multivariable supertwisting fixed‐time approach for RLV re‐entry attitude control

The attitude control problem of reusable launch vehicles (RLVs) is investigated based on multivariable supertwisting fixed‐time comprehensive control strategy. A novel multivariable supertwisting fixed‐time approach, which can guarantee that the states converge to zero within a fixed time, is proposed. According to the multiple time scale principle, the RLV attitude control system is divided into attitude angle subsystem and attitude angle rate subsystem. Based on multivariable supertwisting fixed‐time approach, comprehensive design of fixed‐time disturbance observer and controller is proposed to ensure that the attitude angle tracking error converges to zero within a fixed time. The features of the proposed control scheme contain that the settling time is independent of initial conditions and it has the better property of chattering reduction. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed method is verified through numerical simulation.

Second-order terminal sliding mode control for hypersonic vehicle in cruising flight with sliding mode disturbance observer

This paper focuses on the design of nonlinear robust controller and disturbance observer for the longitudinal dynamics of a hypersonic vehicle (HSV) in the presence of parameter uncertainties and external disturbances. First, by combining terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) and second-order sliding mode control (SOSMC) approach, the secondorder terminal sliding control (2TSMC) is proposed for the velocity and altitude tracking control of the HSV. The 2TSMC possesses the merits of both TSMC and SOSMC, which can provide fast convergence, continuous control law and hightracking precision. Then, in order to increase the robustness of the control system and improve the control performance, the sliding mode disturbance observer (SMDO) is presented. The closed-loop stability is analyzed using the Lyapunov technique. Finally, simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, as well as the improved overall performance over the conventional sliding mode control (SMC).

Sliding mode control and active disturbance rejection control to the stabilization of one‐dimensional Schrödinger equation subject to boundary control matched disturbance

In this paper, we are concerned with the boundary stabilization of a one‐dimensional anti‐stable Schrödinger equation subject to boundary control matched disturbance. We apply both the sliding mode control (SMC) and the active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) to deal with the disturbance. By the SMC approach, the disturbance is supposed to be bounded only. The existence and uniqueness of the solution for the closed‐loop system is proved and the ‘reaching condition’ is obtained. Considering the SMC usually requires the large control gain and may exhibit chattering behavior, we develop the ADRC to attenuate the disturbance for which the derivative is also supposed to be bounded. Compared with the SMC, the advantage of the ADRC is not only using the continuous control but also giving an online estimation of the disturbance. It is shown that the resulting closed‐loop system can reach any arbitrary given vicinity of zero as time goes to infinity and high gain tuning parameter goes to zero.
