This paper proposes robust state feedback control of asynchronous sequential machines with model uncertainty. The considered asynchronous machine is deterministic, but its state transition function is partially known before executing a control process. The main objective is to derive the existence condition for a corrective controller for which the behavior of the closed-loop system can match a prescribed model in spite of uncertain transitions. The proposed control scheme also has learning ability. The controller perceives true state transitions as it undergoes corrective actions and reflects the learned knowledge in the next step. An adaptation is made such that the controller can have the minimum number of state transitions to realize a model matching procedure. To demonstrate control construction and execution, a VHDL and FPGA implementation of the proposed control scheme is presented.

In this paper the robust vector control method of induction motor for the purpose of improving the system performance deterioration caused by parameter variations is proposed. The estimations of the stator current and the rotor flux are obtained by the full order state observer with corrective prediction error feedback. and the adaptive scheme is constructed to estimate the rotor speed with the error signal between real and estimation value of the stator current. Adaptive sliding observer based on the variable structure control is applied to parameter identification. Consequently predictive current control and speed sensorless vector control can be obtained simultaneously regardless of the parameter variations.

This paper addresses the problem of fault detection and tolerance for asynchronous sequential machines using state feedback control. The considered asynchronous machine is affected by intermittent faults. When intermittent faults occur, the machine undergoes unauthorized state transitions and, for a finite duration, remains at the fault state, not responding to the change of the external input. In this paper, we postulate the scheme of detecting intermittent faults and present the existence condition and design algorithm for a robust state feedback controller that overcomes the adversarial effect of intermittent faults. We also undertake a comparative study between the previous control scheme for transient faults and the present strategy for intermittent faults. The design procedure for the proposed controller is described in a case study.
