This paper deals with the design of a robust LQC/LTR (Linear Quadratic Gaussian with Loop Transfer Recovery) controller of the TCSC for the power system oscillation damping enhancement. Designing LQG/LTR controller involves several design parameter adjustment processes for performance improvement. this paper proposes a systematic design parameter adjustment procedure which is suitable for robust multi-monde stabilization. The designed controller is verified by nonlinear power system simulation, which shows that the controller is effective for damping power system oscillations.

This paper proposes a design procedure based on the LQG/LTR (Linear Quadratic Gaussian/ Loop Transfer Recovery) method for a launch vehicle. Continuous-discrete type LQG/LTR compensators are designed using the e-transformation to overcome numerical problems occurring in the process of discretization. The e-LQG/LTR compensator using the e-transformation is compared width the z-LQG/LTR compensator using the z-transformation. The performance of the overall system controlled by the compensator is evaluated via simulations, which show that the discretization error problem is resolved and the control performances are satisfactory in the proposed compensator.

This paper copes with control design for unmanned aerial vehicle transportation system. Moving pendulum dynamics of slung-load system is derived using two methods: Udwadia-Kalaba equation and Newtonian approach. PID controller is applied to Udwadia-Kalaba equation model for structural consistency and linear quadratic Gaussian / Loop Transfer Recovery (LQG/LTR) technique is employed for Newtonian model with minimal state-space realization. Characteristics of PID and LQG/LTR controller are compared, and two controllers are combined to compensate the drawbacks of each other. Numerical simulation is set for two cases and conducted to evaluate performance of designed controllers. The result proves that combination of LQG/LTR and PID control performs stable and robust.

In this paper, a transfer function was obtained for a PWM high speed solenoid valve controlled metal belt CVT system. The transfer function was defined as the ratio of speed ratio to PWM duty ratio and derived in time domain by linear regression analysis from the experimental results. The transfer function obtained showed different dynamic characteristics for the up and down shift. Also, LQG/LTR controller was designed for the CVT system using the transfer function. It is seen from the experimental results that LQG/LTR control showed good performance for the speed ratio tracking and disturbance rejection. The phase difference and relatively slow response are considered due to the inaccuracy os the transfer functions, which resulted from the inherent nonlinearities of the transmission characteristics of the metal belt CVT.

In this thesis, a decomposed LQG/LTR controller is designed for an undersea vehicle. The modellig error which results from decomposition of the original model is considered to the design specification for maintaining the robust stability. The LQG/LTR controller designed with new specification is simulated.

A LQG/LTR(linear quadratic Gaussian/loop transfer recovery) controller with an integrator is designed to control the electro-hydraulic positioning system. Without considering the nonlinearity in the dead-zone, computer simulations are performed and show good performances and tracking abilities with the feedback controller based on the linear system model. However, the performance of the closed loop hydraulic positioning system shows big steady-state error in real system because of the dead-zone. In this paper, the feedback controller with a nonlinear compensator is introduced to overcome the dead-zone phenomenon in hydraulic systems. The inverse dead-zone as a nonlinear compensator is used to cancel out the dead-zone phenomenon. Experimental tests are performed to verify the performance of the controller.

In this paper, a robust optimization approach is applied to the two-axes stage using a piezoelectric actuator for precise motion tracking. Robust control is based on LQG/LTR (linear quadratic Gaussian control with loop transfer recovery) control. Further, an LMI (linear matrix inequality) is used to find the optimal parameter in the loop transfer recovery step, instead of a trial and error method. A decoupler in the shape of FIR filter is added to reduce the coupling effect between the motions of the two axes, and hence, the feedback control loop is designed independently for each axis motion. The experimental result shows that the proposed control scheme can be applied effectively for motion control of the two-axes stage.

In this paper, a robust MRAC (model reference adaptive control) scheme is applied to control an electrohydraulic positioning system under various loads. The inverse dead-zone compensator in the control system cancels out the dead-zone response, and an integrator added to the controller provides good position-tracking ability. LQG/LTR (linear quadratic Gaussian control with loop transfer recovery) closed-loop model is used as the reference model for learning the MRAC system. LQG/LTR provides a systematic technique to design the linear controller that optimizes the objective function using some compromise between the control effort and the system performance in the frequency domain. Different external load tests are performed to investigate the effectiveness of the designed MRAC system in real time. The experimental results show that the tracking performance of the proposed system is highly accurate, which offers considerable robustness even with a large change in the load.
