Optimal Integrator-Less Tracking Controller For Uncertain Systems, Anusha Mannava Jan 2010

Optimal Integrator-Less Tracking Controller For Uncertain Systems, Anusha Mannava

Masters Theses

"Tracking controllers are designed to drive the system on the desired trajectory with minimum error. In real life, all systems have uncertainties such as friction, modeling inaccuracies or damage that cause the performance to deviate from the ideal response. This research is aimed at addressing the tracking problem in the optimal context and a generalized method to handle the uncertainties is proposed. In the first paper, an optimal tracking controller without an integral component is formulated for a linear system. This design can handle time varying, non-zero references and effectively alleviates the risk of 'wind up'. A neural network based …
