Output feedback model predictive control for LPV systems based on quasi-min–max algorithm

This paper proposes a robust output feedback model predictive control (MPC) scheme for linear parameter varying (LPV) systems based on a quasi-min–max algorithm. This approach involves an off-line design of a robust state observer for LPV systems using linear matrix inequality (LMI) and an on-line robust output feedback MPC algorithm using the estimated state. The proposed MPC method for LPV systems is applicable for a variety of systems with constraints and guarantees the robust stability of the output feedback systems. A numerical example for an LPV system subject to input constraints is given to demonstrate its effectiveness.     

Robust multi-parametric model predictive control for LPV systems with application to anaesthesia

We present a multi-parametric model predictive controller (mpMPC) for discrete-time linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems based on the solution of the mpMPC problem for discrete-time linear time-invariant (LTI) systems. The control method yields a controller that adapts to parameter changes of the LPV system. This is accomplished by an add-on unit to the implementation of the mpMPC for LTI systems. No modification of the optimal mpMPC solution for LTI systems is needed. The mpMPC for LPV systems is entirely based on simple computational steps performed on-line. This control design method could improve the performance and robustness of a mpMPC for LPV systems with slowly varying parameters. We apply this method to process systems which suffer from slow variation of system parameters due, for example, to aging or degradation. As an illustrative example the reference tracking control problem of the hypnotic depth during intravenous anaesthesia is presented: the time varying system matrix mimics an external disturbance on the hypnotic depth. In this example the presented mpMPC for LPV systems shows a reduction of approximately 60% of the reference tracking error compared to the mpMPC for LTI systems.

GMPP tracking based on model reference LPV control for a PV system with buck converter modelled on bond graph

A PhotoVoltaic (PV) system with a Linear Parametric Varying (LPV) average model of a buck converter modelled by bond graph methodology, is considered. It is assumed that the voltage generated by the PV panel is a smooth function of time under changes in atmospheric conditions. A model reference is proposed representing the PV system with buck converter operating at the Global Maximum Power Point (GMPP). An LPV control is designed, and an algorithm is proposed in a model reference tracking control configuration assuring that the PV system with buck converter tracks the proposed model reference and hence guaranteeing that this system operates at the GMPP. The proposed algorithm changes the voltage reference based on the power measurement of the PV system assuring that this reference represents the GMPP under shading conditions. The LPV control is designed for an average model of the buck converter solving a feasibility problem based on linear matrix inequalities that assure quadratic stability and minimize a quadratic criterion. The feedback system is tested under shading conditions, and its performance is compared with a standard Perturb and Observe method and with an ideal algorithm based on the irradiance measurement in each section of the PV system.     

Robust reliable tracking controller design against actuator faults for LPV systems

A robust reliable tracking controller design method is developed against actuator faults for linear parameter varying (LPV) systems under a passive control framework. This method is based on a newly proposed stability condition for LPV systems, which is a more general condition than the existing results. An important contribution of this method is that it could handle relatively wider range of actuator faults due to the extra freedom degree introduced by a new slack variable in the stability condition. Numerical example shows the effectiveness and superiority of our method. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley and Sons Asia Pte Ltd and Chinese Automatic Control Society     

Low-complexity linear parameter-varying modeling and control of a robotic manipulator

In this paper, a practical procedure for linear parameter-varying (LPV) modeling and identification of a robotic manipulator is presented, which leads to a successful experimental implementation of an LPV gain-scheduled controller. A nonlinear dynamic model of a two-degrees-of-freedom manipulator containing all important terms is obtained and unknown parameters which are required to construct an LPV model are identified. An important tool for obtaining a model of complexity low enough to be suitable for controller synthesis is the principle-component-analysis-based technique of parameter set mapping. Since the resulting quasi-LPV model has a large number of affine scheduling parameters and a large overbounding, parameter set mapping is used to reduce conservatism and complexity in controller design by finding tighter parameter regions with fewer scheduling parameters. A sufficient a posteriori condition is derived to assess the stability of the resulting closed-loop system. To evaluate the applicability and efficiency of the approximated model, a polytopic LPV gain-scheduled controller is synthesized and implemented experimentally on an industrial robot for a trajectory tracking task. The experimental results illustrate that the designed LPV controller outperforms an independent joint PD controller in terms of tracking performance and achieves a slightly better accuracy than a model-based inverse dynamics controller, while having a simpler structure. Moreover, it is shown that the LPV controller is more robust against dynamic parameter uncertainty.     

Tube‐based robust nonlinear model predictive control

This paper extends tube‐based model predictive control of linear systems to achieve robust control of nonlinear systems subject to additive disturbances. A central or reference trajectory is determined by solving a nominal optimal control problem. The local linear controller, employed in tube‐based robust control of linear systems, is replaced by an ancillary model predictive controller that forces the trajectories of the disturbed system to lie in a tube whose center is the reference trajectory thereby enabling robust control of uncertain nonlinear systems to be achieved.

Probabilistic Robust Linear Parameter-varying Control of a Small Helicopter Using Iterative Scenario Approach

In this paper, we present an iterative scenario approach (ISA) to design robust controllers for complex linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems with uncertainties. The robust controller synthesis problem is transformed to a scenario design problem, with the scenarios generated by identically extracting random samples on both uncertainty parameters and scheduling parameters. An iterative scheme based on the maximum volume ellipsoid cutting-plane method is used to solve the problem. Heuristic logic based on relevance ratio ranking is used to prune the redundant constraints, and thus, to improve the numerical stability of the algorithm. And further, a batching technique is presented to remarkably enhance the computational efficiency. The proposed method is applied to design an output-feedback controller for a small helicopter. Multiple uncertain physical parameters are considered, and simulation studies show that the closed-loop performance is quite good in both aspects of model tracking and dynamic decoupling. For robust LPV control problems, the proposed method is more computationally efficient than the popular stochastic ellipsoid methods.
