Special emphasis is placed on the dynamics variation of the wind turbine system caused by plant nonlinearity with respect to wind speed. The turbine system with the dynamics variation is represented by a linear parameter-varying(LPV) model, which is derived by interpolating linearized models at various operating wind speeds. To achieve control objectives of regulating power capture and minimizing platform motions, both linear quadratic regulator(LQR) GS and LPV GS controller design techniques are explored. The designed controllers are evaluated in simulations with the NREL 5 MW wind turbine model, and compared with the baseline proportional-integral(PI) GS controller and non-GS controllers. The simulation results demonstrate the performance superiority of LQR GS and LPV GS controllers, as well as the performance trade-off between power regulation and platform movement reduction.展开更多

The existing longitudinal autopilot employs time-invariant passive resistor-inductor-capacitor （RLC） network compensator as a control strategy, which does not take into account the time-varying missile dynamics. This may cause the closed-loop system instability in the presence of large disturbance and dynamics uncertainty. Therefore, the existing controller should be redesigned to achieve more stable vehicle response. In this paper, based on gain-scheduling adaptive control strategy, two different types of optimal controllers are proposed. The first controller is gain-scheduled optimal tuning-proportional-integral-derivative （PID） with actuator constraints, which supplies better response but requires a priori knowledge of the system dynamics. Moreover, the controller has oscillatory response in the presence of dynamic uncertainty. Taking this into account, gain-scheduled optimal linear quadratic （LQ） in conjunction with optimal tuning-compensator offers the greatest scope for controller improvement in the presence of dynamic uncertainty and large disturbance. The latter controller is tested through various scenarios for the validated nonlinear dynamic flight model of the real ballistic missile system with autopilot exposed to external disturbances.展开更多

A nonlinear dynamic model is established and anticipant performance criterions are given at first. For the selected operating points,feedback robust controllers of threechannels are designed independently to restrain cross-channel couple disturbances and aerodynamic perturbations. Then,the sweepback and Ma number are selected to schedule controller gains iteratively to ensure all closed-loop poles locating inside the desired region. The proposed method here attempts to extend the performance of initial design obtained for a single arbitrary point to the whole linearized domain while maintaining the expected stability over the entire range of sweepback and full flight envelope. Some time-domain analysis procedures based on the proposed method are carried out and assessed,while the performance of tracking and robustness to aerodynamic perturbations in different situations are contrasted by some nonlinear simulations. Finally,the numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed autopilot design method has better tracking performance and is robust,effective and feasible.展开更多

The proposed gain-scheduling MPC algorithm is then applied to the lateral control of unmanned airship.The unmanned airship is modeled by an LPV-type system and transformed into a polytopic uncertain description with actuator saturation. By introducing a parameter-dependent state feedback law, the set invariance condition of the polytopic uncertain system is identified.

A fuzzy gain-scheduling output feedback controller is proposed to guarantee the stability of the closed-loop system as well as providing disturbance/error attenuation measured in L2 norm. The synthesis condition is cast as a convex optimization problem in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) and can be solved efficiently. The ball-beam system is used to demonstrate the proposed saturation control approach.展开更多
