This article investigates how to adaptively predict the time-varying metrology delay that could realistically occur in the semiconductor manufacturing practice. Metrology delays pose a great challenge for the existing run-to-run (R2R) controllers, driving the process output significantly away from target if not adequately predicted. First, the expected asymptotic double exponentially weighted moving average (DEWMA) control output, by using the EWMA and recursive least squares (RLS) prediction methods, is derived. It has been found that the relationships between the expected control output and target in both estimation methods are parallel, and six cases are addressed. Within the context of time-varying metrology delay, this paper presents a modified recursive least squares-linear trend (RLS-LT) controller, in combination with runs test. Simulated single input-single output (SISO) R2R processes subject to various time-varying metrology delay scenarios are used as a testbed to evaluate the proposed algorithms. The simulation results indicate that the modified RLS-LT controller can yield the process output more accurately on target with smaller mean squared error (MSE) than the original RLSLT controller that only deals with constant metrology delays.

This paper proposes a gain scheduled control technique using time-delay for the nonlinear system with plant uncertainties and unexpected disturbances. The time delay-based gain scheduled control depends on a direct estimation of a function representing the effect of uncertainties. The information from the estimation is used to cancel the unknown dynamics and the unexpected disturbances simultaneously. The proposed estimation scheme with a finite convergence time is formulated in order to estimate the unborn scheduling variable variation. In other words, the time delay-based gain scheduled control uses the past observation of the system's response and the control input to directly modify the control actions rather than to adjust the controller gains or to identify system parameters. It has a simple structure so as to minimize the computational burden. The benefits of this proposed scheme are demonstrated in the simulation of an electromagnetic suspension system with plant uncertainties and external disturbances, and the proposed controller is compared with the conventional state feedback controller.

본 논문에서는 PI 제어기를 설계해야 하는 경우인 임계 주파수 부근에서 이득 감소가 적은 시스템을 구별할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 임계 주파수 부근에서 이득감소가 적은 시스템을 구별하기 위해 시간 지연 요소를 이용하여 이득 감소율을 구하는 방법을 제안하였다. 또한 크기 마진과 위상 마진이 주어진 경우 PI 제어기를 설계하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 시간 지연요소와 포화함수를 이용하여 PI 제어가 가능한 한점의 좌표값을 계산하는 방법을 사용하였다. 제안된 방법은 시뮬레이션을 통해 타당성을 검증하였다.

This paper considers the problem of adaptive fault-tolerant guaranteed cost controller design via dynamic output feedback for a class of linear time-delay systems against actuator faults. A new variable gain controller is established, whose gains are tuned by the designed adaptive laws. More relaxed sufficient conditions are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), compared with the corresponding fault-tolerant controller with fixed gains. A real application example about river pollution process is presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Deadbeat technique has been proposed as a digital controller for an UPS inverter to achieve the fast response to a load variation and to conserve a very low THD under a nonlinear load condition. This scheme contains a fatal drawback, sensitivity against parameter variation and calculation time delay. This paper proposes a second order deadbeat current controller, which fundamentally solves the calculation time delay problem and certainly guarantees the robustness of the parameter's variation. This is shown theoretically and practically through simulation and experiment.

In this study, for the control of a single water tank system, a fuzzy-PID controller design technique based on a fuzzy model is investigated. For this purpose, a water tank system is linearized as a number of submodels depending on the operating point, and a fuzzy model is obtained by fuzzy combining. Each submodel is approximated as a first order time delay model, and a PID controller is designed using several existing tuning techniques. Then, through the fuzzy combination of this controller using the same method as that of the fuzzy model, a fuzzy-PID controller is designed. For the proposed technique, a simulation is performed using the fuzzy model of a water tank system, and the validity is examined by comparing its performance with that of a PID controller.

이 논문에서는 수신측에 도달하는 VoIP 패킷들을 쉐이핑하고 또 버퍼링하기 위하여 CAM형의 제어기를 사용하는 기술로 적응식 쉐이핑 제어기를 제안한다. 패킷간 도탁 시간 간격의 변이를 없애기 위하여, 지연 균등화 방법에 입각한 전통적인 jitter buffer는 요구되는 버퍼크기가 너무 커지고 이에 기인한 지나친 지연으로 오디오 질이 나빠지는 원인이다. 그러나, 이 논문에서 제안한 방법을 사용하면, 도착시간 간격 변이를 없애기 위한 쉐이핑에 의해 야기된 지연은 동적으로 Ip 네크웍에서 존재하는jitter 수준의 정도에 따라 증가 또는 감소한다. 이것은 네트웍의 지연시간 변이 상황에 적응하여 동작하게 되는데, 네트웍에 지연시간 변이현상이 심하지 않으면 쉐이핑 제어기에서의 지연시간이 작아진다는 것을 의미한다. 또 CAM형으로 동작하기 때문에 쉐이핑 과정이 빨리 이루어지고 이는 수신측에서의 VoIP 패킷 처리 시간을 최대한 단축시켜 준다. 마지막으로 쉐이핑 제어기에서의 평균 TALKratio와 jitter buffer 엔트리 수에 대한 패킷 손실과 지연 성능이 관계를 분석한다. 놀랍게도, 제안한 쉐이핑 제어기를 사용할 때의 평균 지연이 약 10msec라는 것을 확인하였다. 이 성능은 수신측에서 60msec 강제지연을 강요하는 지연시간 균등화 방법보다 훨씬 더 좋은 성능을 보여주는 것이다.

In this paper, Time Delay Control(TDC) for robot manipulators is analyzed and its problems are founded. In order to remedy the problems, the enhanced controller is proposed and analyzed. The effect of friction associated with TDC is reported and its cause is presented. Through the analysis, simulation and experiment, it is shown that the friction effect causes serious degradation in control performance and that it is a result of the error of Time Delay Estimation(TDE) in TDC. In order to remedy the problems, TDC combined with Internal Model Control(IMC) concept is proposed. The proposed compensator is effective enough to handle the bad effect of friction, and is so simple and efficient as to match positive attribute of TDC. The simulation and experimental results show the effectiveness of proposed controller against the friction of the robot manipulators.

In this paper, we propose a non-fragile guaranteed cost controller design method for uncertain linear systems with constant delyas in state. The norm bounded and time-varying uncertainties are subjected to system and controller design matrices. A quadratic cost function is considered as the performance measure for the system. Based on the Lyapunov method, an LMI(Linear Matrix Inequality) optimization problem is established to design the controller which uses information of delayed state and minimizes the upper bound of the quadratic cost function for all admissible system uncertainties and controller gain variations. Numerical examples show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
