This paper presents a robust and systematic bilateral controller design method for a teleoperation of an underwater manipulator. Disturbance observer is used as a local controller of the master and underwater slave manipulator to set up the teleoperation system as a nominal model by compensating coupled nonlinear terms model uncertainties and external disturbances in the water. Using the linearized master/slave model a $H_{\infty}$ optimal control scheme is applied to systematically construct a force reflecting bilateral controller.

This paper presents a simulation study using a robust controller to improve the roll stability of a vehicle. The controller is designed in the framework of an output feedback H$_{\infty}$ control scheme based on the 3DOF linear vehicle model, solving the mixed-sensitivity problem to guarantee the robust stability and disturbance rejection with respect to parameter variations due to laden and running vehicle conditions. In order to investigate the feasibility of the active roll control system in a real car, its performance is evaluated by simulation in a 10DOF full vehicle model with actuator dynamics and tire characteristics.

In this paper, the robust PID(Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller was designed for speed control of BLDC motors using the frequency region model matching method. It was designed the robust PID controller satisfying disturbance attenuation and robust tracking performance using an H$\infty$ control method. The robust PID controller gains with the performances of the designed H$\infty$ controller are determined using the model matching method at frequency domain. Consequently, simulation results show that the proposed PID speed controller satisfies load torque disturbance attenuation and robust tracking performance, and this study has usefulness and applicability for the speed control system design of BLDC motors.

H$_{\infty}$ robust control theory is applied to the nuclear steam generator level control. Nuclear steam generator has the properties such as nonlinearity, non-minimum phase, and so, has some difficulties on level control. In a nuclear plant, it is more important to keep the operating variables under certain safety limits against various uncertainties than to meet the optimal performance. The designed H$_{\infty}$ controller shows robust level control against modelling error, disturbance in the nonlinear simulation. As the H$_{\infty}$ controller has both robustness and design transparency, it is adequate to the automation of level control and in licensibility

This paper deals with an $H_{\infty}$ output feedback controller design for singularly perturbed T-S fuzzy systems. It is shown that the $H_{\infty}$ norm of the singularly perturbed T-S fuzzy system is less than ${\gamma}$ for a sufficiently small ${\varepsilon}$>0 if the $H_{\infty}$ norms of both the slow and fast subsystem are less than ${\gamma}$. Using this fact, we develop a linear matrix inequality based design method which is independent of the singular perturbation parameter ${\varepsilon}$. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed design method.

There are three kinds of algorithms(2-ARE, mu-synthesis, LMI) for controller design using closed-loop shaping method. This paper provides the summary of background theory of three algorithms and $H_{\infty}$ controller design results for spacecraft attitude control using the three controller design tools of Matlab$^{TM}$ Toolbox for comparison. As a result, it reveals that LMI design method is more reliable as well as easier than others for spacecraft attitude control design. Comparison results are as follow: 2-ARE method and LMI method provide almost same results in robust stability, robust performance and control authority level. But 2-ARE method is more sensitive than LMI method with respect to proper design of weighting functions: 2-ARE method is more difficult than LMI method in weighting function design. The design result of mu-synthesis method shows worse performance and requires bigger control authority than others.

Nonlinear dynamic equation of a 4-axis rigid rotor supported by two an-isotropic magnetic bearings is derived via Hamilton's principle. It is transformed to a state-space form for the standard Η$_{\infty}$ control problem. we present a robust Η$_{\infty}$ control design methods of continuous and discrete LMI-based approaches and improve performance using loopshaping.

This paper describes the development of the $H_{\infty}$ lateral control system for an autonomous ground vehicle operating a limited area using the RTK-DGPS(Real Time Kinematic-Differential Global Positioning System). Before engaging in autonomous driving, map data are acquired by the RTK-DGPS and used to construct a reference trajectory. The navigation system contains the map data and computes the reference yaw angle of the vehicle using two consecutive position values. The yaw angle of the vehicle is controlled by the $H_{\infty}$ controller. A prototype of the autonomous vehicle by the navigation method has been developed, and the performance of the vehicle has been evaluated by experiment. The experimental results show that the $H_{\infty}$ controller and the RTK-DGPS based navigation system can sufficiently track the map at low speed. We expect that this navigation system can be made more accurate by incorporating additional sensors.

In this paper a novel sliding mode control is proposed by using $H_2/H_{\infty}$ controller. this technique is constructed based on the augmented system with a virtual state and make it has the dynamics of the original system and then $H_2/H_{\infty}$ controller has robust characteristics of sliding mode control for existing parameter uncertainty. The reaching phase is excluded by setting initial virtual state value appropriately.

In this paper, we consider the H$_2$(or guaranteed cost control) and H$_{\infty}$ controller design methods for singular(or descriptor) systems with input time delay. Also, a mixed H$_2$and H$_{\infty}$ controller design algorithm is treated by combination of the proposed H$_2$and H$_{\infty}$ controller design method. The sufficient conditions for the existence of controllers and controller design methods are introduced at each Lemma and Theorem. Furthermore, we present optimization problems to get the upper bound of performance measures. The proposed methods are checked by examples.
