In this paper, we propose a control algorithm for two-wheel mobile robot that can move the rider to his or her command and autonomously keep its balance. The control algorithm is based on a mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ control scheme. In this control problem the main issue is to move the rider while keeping its balance in the presence of disturbances and parameter uncertainties. The disturbance force caused by uneven road surfaces and the uncertainty due to different rider's heights are considered. To this end we first consider a state feedback controller as a basic framework. Secondly, we obtain the state feedback gain $K_2$ minimizing the $H_2$ norm and the state feedback gain $K_{\infty}$ minimizing the $H_{\infty}$ norm over the whole range of parameter uncertainty. Finally, we select mixed $H_2$/$H_{\infty}$ state feedback controller K as the geometric mean of $K_2$ and $K_{\infty}$. Simulation results show that the mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ state feedback controller combines the effects of the optimal $H_2$ state feedback controller and robust $H_{\infty}$ controller state feedback controller efficiently in the presence of disturbance and parameter uncertainty.

Many real world control systems usually track several control objectives, simultaneously. At the moment, it is desirable to meet all specified goals using the controllers with simple structures like as proportional-integral (PI) and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) which are very useful in industry applications. Since in practice, these controllers are commonly tuned based on classical or trial-and-error approaches, they are incapable of obtaining good dynamical performance to capture all design objectives and specifications. This paper addresses a new method to bridge the gap between the power of optimal multiobjective control and PI/PID industrial controls. First the PI/PID control problem is reduced to a static output feedback control synthesis through the mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ control technique, and then the control parameters are easily carried out using an iterative linear matrix inequalities (ILMI) algorithm. Numerical examples on load-frequency control (LFC) and power system stabilizer (PSS) designs are given to illustrate the proposed methodology. The results are compared with genetic algorithm (GA) based multiobjective control and LMI based full order mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ control designs.

This paper presents matrix inequality conditions for H$_2$optimal control of linear time-invariant descriptor systems in continuous and discrete time cases, respectively. First, the necessary and sufficient condition for H$_2$control and H$_2$controller design method are expressed in terms of LMls(linear matrix inequalities) with no equality constraints in continuous time case. Next, the sufficient condition for H$_2$control and H$_2$controller design method are proposed by matrix inequality approach in discrete time case. A numerical example is given in each case.

The aim of this paper is to suggest a design method of the optimal multivariable $H_{\infty}$ control system using genetic algorithm (GA). This $H_{\infty}$ control system is designed by applying GA to the optimal determination of weighting functions and design parameter $\gamma$ that are given by Glover-Doyle algorithm which can design $H_{\infty}$ controller in the state space. The first method to do this is that the gains of weighting functions and $\gamma$ are optimized simultaneously by GA with tournament method. And the second method is that not only the gains and $\gamma$ but also the dynamics of weighting functions are optimized at the same time by eA with roulette-wheel method. The effectiveness of this $H_{\infty}$ control system is verified by computer simulation.

This paper presents an H$\infty$ controller design method for linear systems with time-varying delayed states, inputs, and measurement outputs. Using a Lyapounov unctional , the stability for delay systems is discussed independently of time delays . And a sufficient condition for the existence of H$\infty$ controllers of n-th order is given in terms of three matrix inequalities. Based on the positive-definite solutions of their matrix inequalities, we briefly explain how to construct H$\infty$ construct H$\infty$ controller, which stabilizes time-delay systems independently of delays and guarantees an H$\infty$ norm bound.

In this paper, robust depth and course controllers of AUV(autonomous underwater vehicles) using LMI-based H$_{\infty}$ servo control are proposed. The $H_{\infty}$ servo problem is modified to an $H_{\infty}$ control problem for the generalized plant that includes a reference input mode, and then a sub-optimal solution that satisfies a given performance criteria is calculated by LMI(Linear Matrix Inequality) approach. The robust depth and course controllers are designed to be satisfied the robust stability about the modeling error generated from the perturbation of the hydrodynamic coefficients and the robust tracking property under sea wave and tide disturbances. The performances of the designed controllers are evaluated by computer simulations, and these simulation results show the applicability of the proposed robust depth and course controller.

In this paper, depth and course controllers of autonomous underwater vehicles using H$_{\infty}$ servo control are proposed. An H$_{\infty}$ servo problem is formulated to design the controllers satisfying a robust tracking property with modeling errors and disturbances. The solution of the H$_{\infty}$ servo problem is as follows: first, this problem is modified as an H$_{\infty}$ control problem for the generalized plant that includes a reference input mode, and then a sub-optimal solution that satisfies a given performance criteria is calculated by LMI(Linear Matrix Inequality) approach. The H$_{\infty}$ depth and course controllers ate designed to satisfy with the robust stability about the modeling error generated from the perturbation of the hydrodynamic coefficients and the robust tracking property under disturbances(wave force, wave moment, tide). The performances(the robustness to the uncertainties, depth and course tracking properties) of the designed controllers are evaluated with computer simulations, and finally these simulation results show the usefulness and application of the proposed H$_{\infty}$ depth and course control systems.

For the anti-sway control of traveling cranes, there are several solutions, i.e., by fuzzy control, by optimal control theory, etc. Each of them is reported to be effective. And, H infinity control and $H_2$ control can be also used. However, the full order observer which estimates all states in the controlled object is used in these methods. Therefore, the orders of these controllers are apt to be higher than that of the optimal controller, etc. Because the conventional H2 controller which minimizes $H_2$ norm consists of two parts, that is: feedback gains which make the controlled object stable and the full order observer which estimate those states. If the minimal order observer is used instead of the full order one, the order of the controller can be reduced. In this paper, we propose a new method based on the minimalization of $H_2$ norm using the minimal order observer. And, we confirm the effect of a new $H_2$ controller in the experiments of the anti-sway control of a traveling crane.

The internal corrosion of water distribution systems is the main cause for the problem of the public health threat as well as water leakage in the damaged pipeline, red water, and odor and taste of the tap water. This study was examined the effect of chemicals used for pH and alkalinity control and corrosion inhibitors for producing the optimal corrosion control method. Corrosion study at different pH and alkalinity indicated that these control using alkaline chemicals was effective in corrosion rate, Fe release reduction, but examined to be increased in turbidity and corrosion-by-products(TTHMs) problems. The turbidity was slightly increased, requiring caution in controlling corrosion with $Ca(OH)_2$. At pH 9.0, TTHMs concentration is increased two times corn pared with non-control of pH. Using the pipe which had experienced 28 years of exposure, iron release was decreased with the corrosion inhibitor. Consequently, pH, Alkalinity control method using alkaline chemicals must be complemented by corrosion inhibitor application for efficient corrosion control.

In this paper we design $H_{\infty}$ infinity controller for Induction motor with low speed operation. $H_{\infty}$ controller is applied in order to design a state feedback static controller for field oriented control of an induction motor. $H_{\infty}$ controller are linear plant can be set up using the same assumptions that are at the basis of field oriented control. Thus, $H_{\infty}$ control theory can be successfully used to set up a state feedback controller for field oriented control of an induction motor. The performances of the $H_{\infty}$ controller is numerically analysed and experimentally verified to prove the validity of the design procedure. In this paper show that performances with high robustness to variations of system parameter.
