Performance-Robust Dynamic Feedback Control Of Lipschitz Nonlinear Systems, Winston Baker Oct 2016

Performance-Robust Dynamic Feedback Control Of Lipschitz Nonlinear Systems, Winston Baker

Dissertations (1934 -)

This dissertation addresses the dynamic control of nonlinear systems with finite energy noise in the state and measurement equations. Regional eigenvalue assignment (REA) is used to ensure that the state estimate error is driven to zero significantly faster than the state itself. Moreover, the controller is designed for the resulting closed loop system to achieve any one of a set of general performance criteria (GPC). The nonlinear model is assumed to have a Lipschitz nonlinearity both in the state and measurement equations. By using the norm bound of the nonlinearity, the controller is designed to be robust against all nonlinearities …


Time-Optimal Control Of Discrete-Time Systems With Known Waveform Disturbances, Jennifer Lynn Riffer Jan 2009

Time-Optimal Control Of Discrete-Time Systems With Known Waveform Disturbances, Jennifer Lynn Riffer

Master's Theses (2009 -)

In this thesis, a discrete-time observer based disturbance accommodation controller is designed that is capable of minimizing the effect of disturbances with known waveform in both the system state and measurement as fast as possible while also driving the state to zero. This control is achieved by designing a single control input to accommodate disturbances in both the system state and measurement. For controller design, the state and measurement equations are augmented, and a least squares minimization technique is used to find a control input that drives the system state and measurement to zero, guaranteeing deadbeat response. During the design …
