State estimation for a class of nonlinear systems

Benoît Schwaller, Denis Ensminger, Birgitta Dresp-Langley, José Ragot (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

We propose a new type of Proportional Integral (PI) state observer for a class of nonlinear systems in continuous time which ensures an asymptotic stable convergence of the state estimates. Approximations of nonlinearity are not necessary to obtain such results, but the functions must be, at least locally, of the Lipschitz type. The obtained state variables are exact and robust against noise. Naslin's damping criterion permits synthesizing gains in an algebraically simple and efficient...

Robust observer design for Sugeno systems with incremental quadratic nonlinearity in the consequent

Hoda Moodi, Mohammad Farrokhi (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper is concerned with observer design for nonlinear systems that are modeled by T-S fuzzy systems containing parametric and nonparametric uncertainties. Unlike most Sugeno models, the proposed method contains nonlinear functions in the consequent part of the fuzzy IF-THEN rules. This will allow modeling a wider class of systems with smaller modeling errors. The consequent part of each rule contains a linear part plus a nonlinear term, which has an incremental quadratic constraint....

A backstepping approach to ship course control

Anna Witkowska, Mirosław Tomera, Roman Smierzchalski (2007)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

As an object of course control, the ship is characterised by a nonlinear function describing static manoeuvring characteristics that reflect the steady-state relation between the rudder deflection and the rate of turn of the hull. One of the methods which can be used for designing a nonlinear ship course controller is the backstepping method. It is used here for designing two configurations of nonlinear controllers, which are then applied to ship course control. The parameters of the...

Nonlinear system identification using heterogeneous multiple models

Rodolfo Orjuela, Benoît Marx, José Ragot, Didier Maquin (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Multiple models are recognised by their abilities to accurately describe nonlinear dynamic behaviours of a wide variety of nonlinear systems with a tractable model in control engineering problems. Multiple models are built by the interpolation of a set of submodels according to a particular aggregation mechanism, with the heterogeneous multiple model being of particular interest. This multiple model is characterized by the use of heterogeneous submodels in the sense that their state...

Stability of softly switched multiregional dynamic output controllers with a static antiwindup filter: A discrete-time case

Tomasz Zubowicz, Mietek A. Brdyś (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper addresses the problem of model-based global stability analysis of discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno multiregional dynamic output controllers with static antiwindup filters. The presented analyses are reduced to the problem of a feasibility study of the Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs), derived based on Lyapunov stability theory. Two sets of LMIs are considered candidate derived from the classical common quadratic Lyapunov function, which may in some cases be too conservative, and...
