The slow and fast systems of singularly perturbed systems are used to produce an estimate of the plant state behavior between transmission times, by which one can reduce the usage of the network. The approximate solutions of the whole systems are derived and it is shown that the whole systems via the network control are generally asymptotically stable as long as their slow and fast systems are both stable. These results are also extended to the case of network delay.展开更多

This scheme consists of three consecutive steps. First, although the network-induced delay in those systems can be effectively handled by using Pade approximation(PA), the unmatched disturbance cames out as another difficulty in the control design. Second, to actively estimate this unmatched disturbance, a generalized proportional integral observer(GPIO) technique is utilized based on only one measured state. Third, by constructing a new sliding manifold with the aid of the estimated unmatched disturbance and states, a GPIO-based CSMC is synthesized, which is employed to cope with not only matched and unmatched disturbances, but also networkinduced delays. The stability of the entire closed-loop system under the proposed GPIO-based CSMC is detailedly analyzed.The promising tracking efficiency and feasibility of the proposed control methodology are verified through simulations and experiments on Quanser's servo module for motion control under various test conditions.展开更多

文摘Dear Editor,In this letter,a constrained networked predictive control strategy is proposed for the optimal control problem of complex nonlinear highorder fully actuated(HOFA)systems with noises.The method can effectively deal with nonlinearities,constraints,and noises in the system,optimize the performance metric,and present an upper bound on the stable output of the system.
文摘In this study,artificial neural networks(ANNs)were implemented to determine design parameters for an impressed current cathodic protection(ICCP)prototype.An ASTM A36 steel plate was tested in 3.5%NaCl solution,seawater,and NS4 using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)to monitor the evolution of the substrate surface,which affects the current required to reach the protection potential(Eprot).Experimental data were collected as training datasets and analyzed using statistical methods,including box plots and correlation matrices.Subsequently,ANNs were applied to predict the current demand at different exposure times,enabling the estimation of electrochemical parameters(limiting voltage values)that can be used to optimize a self-regulating ICCP system.The obtained electrochemical parameters were then used,through Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO),to fine-tune an ANN-based proportional-integral-derivative(PID)controller for the ICCP system.

文摘This paper studies the problem of designing a modelbased decentralized dynamic periodic event-triggering mechanism(DDPETM)for networked control systems(NCSs)subject to packet losses and external disturbances.Firstly,the entire NCSs,comprising the triggering mechanism,packet losses and output-based controller,are unified into a hybrid dynamical framework.Secondly,by introducing dynamic triggering variables,the DDPETM is designed to conserve network resources while guaranteeing desired performance properties and tolerating the maximum allowable number of successive packet losses.Thirdly,some stability conditions are derived using the Lyapunov approach.Differing from the zero-order-hold(ZOH)case,the model-based control sufficiently exploits the model information at the controller side.Between two updates,the controller predicts the plant state based on the models and received feedback information.With the model-based control,less transmission may be expected than with ZOH.Finally,numerical examples and comparative experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘Dear Editor,The attacker is always going to intrude covertly networked control systems(NCSs)by dynamically changing false data injection attacks(FDIAs)strategy,while the defender try their best to resist attacks by designing defense strategy on the basis of identifying attack strategy,maintaining stable operation of NCSs.To solve this attack-defense game problem,this letter investigates optimal secure control of NCSs under FDIAs.First,for the alterations of energy caused by false data,a novel attack-defense game model is constructed,which considers the changes of energy caused by the actions of the defender and attacker in the forward and feedback channels.

文摘This paper investigates the problem of optimal secure control for networked control systems under hybrid attacks.A control strategy based on the Stackelberg game framework is proposed,which differs from conventional methods by considering both denial-of-service(DoS)and false data injection(FDI)attacks simultaneously.Additionally,the stability conditions for the system under these hybrid attacks are established.It is technically challenging to design the control strategy by predicting attacker actions based on Stcakelberg game to ensure the system stability under hybrid attacks.Another technical difficulty lies in establishing the conditions for mean-square asymptotic stability due to the complexity of the attack scenarios Finally,simulations on an unstable batch reactor system under hybrid attacks demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

文摘The Internet of Things(IoT)technology provides data acquisition,transmission,and analysis to control rehabilitation robots,encompassing sensor data from the robots as well as lidar signals for trajectory planning(desired trajectory).In IoT rehabilitation robot systems,managing nonvanishing uncertainties and input quantization is crucial for precise and reliable control performance.These challenges can cause instability and reduced effectiveness,particularly in adaptive networked control.This paper investigates networked control with guaranteed performance for IoT rehabilitation robots under nonvanishing uncertainties and input quantization.First,input quantization is managed via a quantization-aware control design,ensur stability and minimizing tracking errors,even with discrete control inputs,to avoid chattering.Second,the method handles nonvanishing uncertainties by adjusting control parameters via real-time neural network adaptation,maintaining consistent performance despite persistent disturbances.Third,the control scheme guarantees the desired tracking performance within a specified time,with all signals in the closed-loop system remaining uniformly bounded,offering a robust,reliable solution for IoT rehabilitation robot control.The simulation verifies the benefits and efficacy of the proposed control strategy.

文摘To handle input and output time delays that commonly exist in many networked control systems(NCSs), a new robust continuous sliding mode control(CSMC) scheme is proposed for the output tracking in uncertain single input-single-output(SISO) networked control systems. This scheme consists of three consecutive steps. First, although the network-induced delay in those systems can be effectively handled by using Pade approximation(PA), the unmatched disturbance cames out as another difficulty in the control design. Second, to actively estimate this unmatched disturbance, a generalized proportional integral observer(GPIO) technique is utilized based on only one measured state. Third, by constructing a new sliding manifold with the aid of the estimated unmatched disturbance and states, a GPIO-based CSMC is synthesized, which is employed to cope with not only matched and unmatched disturbances, but also networkinduced delays. The stability of the entire closed-loop system under the proposed GPIO-based CSMC is detailedly analyzed.The promising tracking efficiency and feasibility of the proposed control methodology are verified through simulations and experiments on Quanser's servo module for motion control under various test conditions.
