Résumé | Liens | BibTeX | Étiquettes: Controllers, Digital control systems, Discrete – time systems, Discrete time control systems, H ∞ criterion, Lipschitz, Lipschitz non-linearity, Observer-based, Observer-based controllers, Observer-based stabilization design, Performance, Sliding Window, Sliding window approach, Stabilization, Uncertain systems @conference{Gasmi20205970b, The aim of this paper is to develop a new observer-based stabilization strategy for a class of Lipschitz uncertain systems. This new strategy improves the performances of existing methods and ensures better convergence conditions. The observer and the controller are enriched with sliding windows of measurements and estimated states, respectively. This technique allows to increase the number of decision variables and thus get less restrictive and more general LMI conditions. The established sufficient stability conditions are in the form of Bilinear Matrix Inequality (BMI). The obtained constraint is transformed, through a useful approach, to a more suitable one easily tractable by standard software algorithms. Numerical example is given to illustrate the performances of the proposed approach. Copyright © 2020 The Authors. This is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license |

Due to the introduction of a sliding window of delayed measurements, new LMI conditions are proposed. Indeed, the previous measurements allow increasing the number of decision variables in the LMIs, which render it more general and less conservative than those established by using the standard Luenberger structure of the filter. Analytical and numerical comparisons are provided to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed filter with respect to the standard one. Finally, simulation results and real-time implementation have been presented to illustrate the performances of the new filter. © 2004-2012 IEEE. |

In the context of preview systems, it is supposed that future values of the reference signal are available a number of time steps ahead. The objective is to design a control algorithm that minimizes a quadratic error between the reference and the output of the system and at the same time achieves a good level of the control signal. The proposed solution combines a robust feedback controller with a feedforward anticipative filter. The feedback controller’s purpose is to assure robustness of the closed-loop system to model uncertainties. Any robust control methodology can be used (such as μ-synthesis, qft, or crone control). The focus of this paper will be on the design of the feedforward action in order to introduce the anticipative effect with respect to known future values of the reference signal without hindering the robustness achieved through the feedback controller. As such, the model uncertainties are taken into account also in the design of the feedforward anticipative filter. The proposed solution is validated in simulation and on an experimental water tank level control system. © 2019 American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). All rights reserved. |

The conditions that guarantee the existence of this observer are presented in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). To handle the Lipschitz nonlinearities, the Lipschitz condition and the Young′s relation are adequately operated to add more degrees of freedom to the proposed LMI. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the unbiased reduced-order observer are given. An extension to H∞ performance analysis is considered in order to deal with H∞ asymptotic stability of the estimation error in the presence of disturbances that affect the state of the system. To highlight the effectiveness of the proposed design methodology, three numerical examples are considered. Then, high performances are shown through real time implementation using the ARDUINO MEGA 2560 device. © 2018, Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. |

Usually, the observer-based control synthesis for the considered class of systems leads to the feasibility of a Bilinear Matrix Inequality (BMI). Since, solving a BMI constraint has been an NP-hard optimization problem, then linearizing this constraint to get a convex one is an interesting issue because Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) are easily tractable by numerical softwares (LMI Toolboxes,.). Hence, the aim of this paper is to develop a new Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) condition, ensuring the H∞ asymptotic convergence of the observer-based controller. Due to the introduction of a slack variable technique, the usual BMI problem is equivalently transformed to a more suitable one, which leads to less conservative and more general LMI condition compared to the existing methods in the literature. Conjointly to the slack variable technique, the Lipschitz property and the Young’s relation are used in a reformulated way to obtain additional decision variables in the LMI. In the aim to further relax the proposed LMI methodology, sliding windows of delayed states and measurements are included in the structures of the controller and the observer, respectively. The obtained LMI is more general and less conservative than the first one, which can be viewed as a particular solution. To show the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed methodology, some numerical examples and comparisons are provided. © 2018 European Control Association |

The main idea consists in using previous measurements in a Luenberger observer through a sliding window to obtain less restrictive constraint. Reformulations of both Lipschitz property and Young’s relation are used to offer greater degree of freedom to the obtained constraint. The presented result is in the form of BMI (Bilinear Matrix Inequality) which is transformed into LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality) through an interesting approach. The resulting constraint can be easily achieved with standard software algorithms. Then, to prove the superiority of the proposed design methodology, a comparison with the classical case is presented. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness and the high performances of the proposed filter. © 2018 IEEE. |

The main contribution lies in the use of the differential mean value theorem (DMVT) to transform the nonlinear error dynamics into a linear parameter varying (LPV) system. This has the advantage of introducing a general condition on the non linear functions. An extension to H∞ filtering design is obtained for systems with linear and nonlinear outputs. LMI conditions are presented to ensure asymptotic convergence. Then performances and accuracy of the results are illustrated through simulation examples. © 2016 IEEE. |
