In this paper, a robust $H_{\infty}$ a controller for semi-active suspension system is proposed. For the improvement of ride quality, the robust $H_{\infty}$ controller is designed to satisfy robust stability and road disturbance attenuation using an $H_{\infty}$ control design procedure. The performances of the design controller for some road conditions are evaluated by computer simulation and finally these simulation results show the usefulness and applicability of the proposed robust $H_{\infty}$ controller.

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.

An $H_2$/$H_{\infty}$ -controller realization is carried out by considering an entropy integral. Using J-spectral factorization, the parametrizations of all $H_{\infty}$ stabilizing controllers are derived. By the relation of a mixed $H_2$/$H_{\infty}$ control problem and a minimum entropy/$H_{\infty}$ control problem, the mixed $H_2$/$H_{\infty}$-controller state-space realization is presented.

This paper is a study on robust PID controller tuning technique using the frequency region model matching method.To design the robust PID controller satisfying disturbance attenuation and robust tracking property for a reference input first an {{{{ETA _$\infty$}}}} controller satisfying given performances is designed using an H$_{\infty}$ control method, And then the parameters(proportional gain integral gain and derivation gain) of the robust PID controller with the performances of the desinged H$_{\infty}$ controller are determined using the model matching method at frequency domain. in this paper this PID controller tuning technique is applied to PID speed controller design for BLDC motors. Consequently simulation results show that the proposed PID speed controller satisfies load torque disturbance attenuation and robust tracking property and this study has usefulness and applicability for the speed control system; design of BLDC motors.

In this paper, we consider the synthesis of non-fragile $H_{\infty}$ state feedback controllers for singular systems and static state feedback controller with multiplicative uncertainty. The sufficient condition of controller existence, the design method of non-fragile $H_{\infty}$ controller, and the measure of non-fragility in controller are presented via LMI(linear matrix inequality) technique. Also, the sufficient condition can be rewritten as LMI form in terms of transformed variables through singular value decomposition, some changes of variables, and Schur complements. Therefore, the obtained non-fragile $H_{\infty}$ controller guarantees the asymptotic stability and disturbance attenuation of the closed loop singular systems within a prescribed degree. Moreover, the controller design method can be extended to the problem of robust and non-fragile $H_{\infty}$ controller design method for singular systems with parameter uncertainties. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the design method.

Tracking control of systems with variable stiffness hysteresis using a gain-scheduled (GS) controller is developed in this paper. Variable stiffness hysteretic system is represented as quasi linear parameter dependent system with known bounds on parameters. Assuming that the parameters can be measured or estimated in real-time, a GS controller that ensures the performance and the stability of the closed-loop system over the entire range of parameter variation is designed. The proposed method is implemented on a spring-mass system which consists of a semi-active independently variable stiffness (SAIVS) device that exhibits hysteresis and precisely controllable stiffness change in real-time. The SAIVS system with variable stiffness hysteresis is represented as quasi linear parameter varying (LPV) system with two parameters: linear time-varying stiffness (parameter with slow variation rate) and stiffness of the friction-hysteresis (parameter with high variation rate). The proposed LPV-GS controller can accommodate both slow and fast varying parameter, which was not possible with the controllers proposed in the prior studies. Effectiveness of the proposed controller is demonstrated by comparing the results with a fixed robust $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ controller that assumes the parameter variation as an uncertainty. Superior performance of the LPV-GS over the robust $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ controller is demonstrated for varying stiffness hysteresis of SAIVS device and for different ranges of tracking displacements. The LPV-GS controller is capable of adapting to any parameter changes whereas the $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ controller is effective only when the system parameters are in the vicinity of the nominal plant parameters for which the controller is designed. The robust $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ controller becomes unstable under large parameter variations but the LPV-GS will ensure stability and guarantee the desired closed-loop performance.

In this paper, we apply a mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ control to a generalized plant of inverted pendulum system represented by an LFR(Linear Fractional Representation). First, in order to obtain the generalized plant, the linear model of the inverted pendulum represented by an LFR(Linear fractional Representation) is derived. In LFR, we consider system uncertainties as three nonlinear components and a pendulum mass uncertainty. Augmenting the LFR model by adding weighting functions, we get a generalized plant. And then, we design a mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ controller for the generalized plant. In order to design the mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ controller, we use the LMI technique. To evaluate control performances and robust stability of the mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ controller designed, we compare it with the $H_{\infty}$ controller through the simulation and experiment. In the result, with the fewer feedback information, the mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ controller shows the better control performances and robust stability than the $H_{\infty}$ controller in the sense of pendulum angle.

This paper considers a robust observer-based H/sub ∞/ controller design method for singular systems with parameter uncertainties using an LMI condition. The sufficient condition for the existence of controller and the controller design method are presented by a perfect LMI condition in terms of all variables using singular value decomposition, Schur complement, and change of variables. Therefore, one of the main advantages is that a robust observer-based H/sub ∞/ controller can be established by solving one LMI condition compared with existing results. Numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller design method.

In this study, a synchronous controller algorithm being applicable to two-axis position synchronzation is developed. Based on coupling structure, the synchronous control system is composed of speed and synchronous controllers. The speed controller is designed to follow a speed reference. In addition, the synchronous controller is designed from the viewpoint of accurate synchronization and robust stability in H$\infty$ synthesis. Finally, the effectiveness of the presented controller is demonstrated through extensive experiments.

A mixed H$^{2}$/$H^{\infty}$ controller design method for linear systems with time delay in all variables and parameter uncertainties in all system matrices is proposed. Robust $H^{\infty}$ performance and H$^{2}$ performance condition that accounts for model-matching of closed loop system and disturbance rejection is also derived. With expressing uncertain system with linear fractional transformation form, we transform the robust stability and performance problem to the H$^{2}$/$H^{\infty}$ optimization problem and design a mixed H$^{2}$/$H^{\infty}$ controller. Using the proposed method, mixed H$^{2}$/$H^{\infty}$ controller for underwater vehicle with time delay and parameter variations are designed. Simulations of a design example with hydrodynamic parameter variations and disturbance are presented to demonstrate the achievement of good robust performance.t performance.ance.
