This paper presents a new control approach for designing a coordinated controller for static VAR compensator system. A SVC constructed by a Fixed Capacitor and a Thyristor Controlled Reactor is designed and implemented to improve the damping of a synchronous generator, as well as controlling the system voltage. A design of linear quadratic controller based on optimal controller depends on choosing weighting matrices. A coordinated optimal controller is achieved by minimizing a quadratic performance index using dynamic programming techniques. The selection of weighting matrices is usually carried out by trial and error which is not a trivial problem. We proposed a efficient method using GA of finding weighting matrices for optimal control law. Thus, we prove the usefulness of proposed method to improve the stability of single machine-infinite bus with SVC system.

This paper presents an LMI(Lincar Matrix Inequalities) method for designing the optimal decoupling controller. The proposed controller based on the Two Degree-of-Freedom configuration considers both the performance of controller and decoupling properties. A minimal set of assumptions for existence of the decoupling controller formula is described in the state space formulas. The decoupling controller parameters are obtained from LMI methods for computational efficiency.

In this study, a methodology of synchronous control which can be applied to position synchronization of a two-axes driving system has been developed. The synchronous error is caused by model uncertainties and torque disturbance of each axis. To overcome these problems, the proposed synchronous control system has been composed of two speed controllers and one synchronous controller. The speed controllers based on PID control law are aimed at the following to speed reference. And the parameters of speed controllers have been designed in order that speed response of the second axis corresponds with one of first axis. Especially, considering to model uncertainties of each axis, the synchronous controller has been designed using H$\infty$ control theory. The controller eliminates the synchronous error by controlling speed of the second axis. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been verified through simulation.

In this paper, a robust two-degree-of-freedom(TDF) the speed control system using $H_{\infty}$ optimization method and real genetic algorithm is proposed for the robust stability and the robust performance in dc servo motor system. This control system composed of feedback and feedforward controller. The feedback(FB) controller with $H_{\infty}$ optimization method is designed for real genetic algorithm that is model matching problem using mixed sensitivity function. The feedforward(FF) controller with $H_{\infty}$optimization method is minimized the error between transfer function of the optimal model and the overall transfer function. The proposed robust two-degree-of-freedom speed control system is simulated to the dc servo motor. By the simulation, feedback controller can obtain the robust stability property and feedforward controller can obtain the robust performance property under modelling error. The performance of the dc servo motor is analyzed by the experiment setting. The validity of the proposed method is verified through being compared with pid(proportional integrated differential)control system design method for the dc servo motor.

The fuzzy controller of the FFH(Fuel Fired Heater) used for vehicle is designed in this study. Two of the most important things of the pre-heater are how fast it can be at the set temperature and how to reduce the temperature deviation in the space to a minimum. The temperature deviation of the existed FFH with PI controller for temperature controller was reduced. Also, the fuzzy controller improved the response characteristics, and then the performance was inspected. When setting the temperature in this designed fuzzy controller, it took 12 minutes in the existed PI control method to reach $25^{\circ}C$. However, it took 9 minutes and 20 seconds in the fuzzy control method. Therefore, it is proved that the fuzzy controller is better than the existed one with fast response performance as 2 minutes 40 seconds. The temperature deviation was $2.4^{\circ}C$ in the existed control method but $1.6^{\circ}C$ in the designed fuzzy controller. Accordingly, the temperature deviation was improved too.

There are several different types of continuously variable transmission(CVT) such as toroidal drive, belt drive, hydrostatic drive, hydro-mechanical drive. The toroidal CVT is an alternative to the manual transmission, HST, power-shift gear trans-missions or other CVTs. The driver of the CVT tractor doesn't have to operate a shia lever since the CVT controller automatically controls the speed of tractor. Thus, it is much easier to operate the CVT tractor. The fuel efficiency of CVT tractor can be increased since the controller responds quickly to the change in external load on the wheel during field operation. This study was conducted to develop the hardwares and softwares for the toroidal CVT controller which control the variator and the range clutches. The hardware consisted of a measurement system, hydraulic system and computer. And the PID controller was developed using the simulation model of the CVT control system. Through the simulation, the control coefficients for the PID controller were selected. Finally, the performance of the CVT control system was evaluated by step response test and torque response test. The settling time of the CVT control system appeared to be fast enough for field operations.

This paper presents a stabilization method for NCS (Networked Control Systems) with two additive time-varying delays. Each time delay component between the plant and the controller has different characteristics depending on communication network, and has the upper and lower bounds. The time delay occurring from the controller to the plant has an effect on the time delay occurring from the plant to the controller, and the relationship between two delays is taken into account on the stability analysis. Based on the two additive delay components and the bound conditions, the appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and the LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality) method derive the stability condition and the $H_{\infty}$ norm constraint for time-varying delayed NCS. Simulation results are finally given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

For linear descriptor systems, we consider the $H_{INFTY}$ controller design problem via output feedback. Both static output feedback and dynamic one are discussed. First, in the case of static output feedback, we reduce our control problem to solving a bilinear matrix inequality (BMI) with respect to the controller coefficient matrix, a Lyapunov matrix and a matrix related to the descriptor matrix. Under a matching condition between the descriptor matrix and the measured output matrix (or the control input matrix), we propose setting the Lyapunov matrix in the BMI as being block diagonal appropriately so that the BMI is reduced to LMIs. For fixed-order dynamic $H_{INFTY}$ output feedback, we formulate the control problem equivalently as the one of static output feedback design, and thus the same approach can be applied.

In the industrial motor drive systems, a shaft torsional vibration is often generated when a motor and a load are connected with a flexible shaft. This paper treats the vibration suppression control of this system. The resonance ratio control is proposed for suppressing the torsional vibration. In this paper, first, the optimal resonance ratio is sellected and the controller to the resonance ratio controlled outward plant is designed based on $H_{\infty}$ control theory. Secondly, the two-degree-of-freedom controller, which includes the above $H_{\infty}$ controller, is designed in order to improve the tracking characteristics for the commanded speed. The control performances are examined by the computer simulations and it is clarified that the proposed speed control system is useful for two-mass system.

In 1980 s to 1990 s the marine propulsion diesel engines have been developed into lower speed and longer stroke for the enegy saving (small S.F.O.C). As these new trends the conventional mechanical-hydraulic governors were not adapted to the new requirements and the digital governors have been adopted in the marine use. The digital governors usually use the control algorithms such as the PID control, optimal control, adaptive control and etc. While the engine has delay time and parameter variations these control algorithms have difficulty in considering the stability and the robustness for the model uncertainty. In this study, the $H_{\infty}$ controller design method are applied in order to design the feedback controller K(s) to the speed control of the low speed marine diesel engine, and the two-degree-of-freedom control system is constituted with $H_{\infty}$controller. By comparison of responses of the two-degree-of-freedom control system under the delay time and parameter variations is confirmed.
