文摘With the growing adoption of artificial intelligence algorithms and neural networks,online learning and adaptive methods for updating the bandwidth have become increasingly prevalent.However,the conditions required to ensure closed-loop stability when employing a time-varying bandwidth,as well as the supporting mathematical foundations,remain insufficiently studied.This paper investigates the stability condition for active disturbance rejection control(ADRC)with a time-varying bandwidth extended state observer(ESO).A new stability condition is derived,which means that the upper bound of rate of change for ESO bandwidth should be restricted.Moreover,under the proposed condition,the closed-loop stability of ADRC with a time-varying bandwidth observer is rigorously proved for nonlinear uncertainties.In simulations,the necessity of the proposed condition is illustrated,demonstrating that the rate of change of ESO bandwidth is crucial for closed-loop stability.

文摘To enhance the low-voltage ride-through(LVRT)capability of emerging power systems with increasing penetration of renewable energy while addressing issues such as the slow response speed of traditional proportional-integral(PI)control,high model accuracy requirements,and complex system parameter tuning,this paper proposes a droop-controlled converter reactive power support strategy based on first-order linear active disturbance rejection control(LADRC).First,a mathematical model of a droop-controlled grid-forming(GFM)converter is established.A model equivalence method is then proposed to transform the dynamic characteristics of the control loop into equivalent impedance parameters.Based on the equivalent impedance parameter model,the influencing factors of the converter terminal voltage and point of common coupling(PCC)voltage are derived.Next,a first-order linear active disturbance rejection control strategy is introduced into the traditional droop control framework,and the controller parameters are optimized via the bandwidth tuning method.Finally,a simulation model of the droop-controlled GFM converter based on the linear active disturbance rejection controller is constructed on the PSCAD/EMTDC platform,and through comparative experiments under typical grid fault conditions,the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy in improving the system fault ride-through capability and voltage support is verified.

文摘During the startup of the hydraulic turbine generators,the hybrid magnetic bearing support system exhibits displacement fluctuations,and the nonlinearity and strong coupling characteristics of the magnetic bearings limit the accuracy of rotor modeling,making traditional control methods difficult to adapt to parameter variations.To suppress startup disturbances and achieve a control strategy with low computational complexity and high precision,this paper proposes a five-degree-of-freedom hybrid magnetic bearing control strategy based on an improved cascaded reduced-order linear active disturbance rejection controller(CRLADRC).The front-stage reduced-order linear extended state observer(FRLESO)reduces the system’s computational complexity,enabling the system to maintain stability during motor startup disturbances.The second-stage reduced-order linear extended state observer(SRLESO)further enhances the system’s disturbance estimation accuracy while maintaining low computational complexity.Furthermore,the disturbance rejection and noise suppression capabilities are analyzed in the frequency domain and the stability of the proposed control method is proven using Lyapunov theory.Experimental results indicate that the proposed strategy effectively reduces displacement fluctuations in the hybrid magnetic bearing support system during motor startup,significantly enhancing the system’s robustness.

文摘This paper aims to fuse two well-established and,at the same time,opposed control techniques,namely,model predictive control(MPC)and active disturbance rejection control(ADRC),to develop a dynamic motion controller for a laser beam steering system.The proposed technique uses the ADRC philosophy to lump disturbances and model uncertainties into a total disturbance.Then,the total disturbance is estimated via a discrete extended state disturbance observer(ESO),and it is used to(1)handle the system constraints in a quadratic optimization problem and(2)injected as a feedforward term to the plant to reject the total disturbance,together with the feedback term obtained by the MPC.The main advantage of the proposed approach is that the MPC is designed based on a straightforward integrator-chain model such that a simple convex optimization problem is performed.Several experiments show the real-time closed-loop performance regarding trajectory tracking and disturbance rejection.Owing to simplicity,the self-contained approach MPC+ESO becomes a Frugal MPC,which is computationally economical,adaptable,efficient,resilient,and suitable for applications where on-board computational resources are limited.
文摘This paper presents a novel active disturbance rejection control(ADRC)scheme based on a cascade connection of generalized proportional integral observers(GPIOs)with internal models designed to estimate both polynomial and resonant disturbances.In this estimator structure,referred to as Cascade GPIO(CGPIO),the total disturbance sensitivity is the product of the sensitivities at each cascade level.This approach improves system performance against both periodic and non-periodic disturbances and enhances robustness under frequency variations in harmonic components.Additionally,the decoupled nature of the estimator reduces the order of the GPIOs,thereby simplifying tuning and limiting observer gains.The proposed control scheme is supported by a frequency-domain analysis and is experimentally validated in the current control of a grid-connected converter subject to control gain uncertainties,harmonic distortion,frequency deviations,and measurement noise.Experimental results demonstrate that the CGPIO-based ADRC outperforms benchmark solutions,including proportional-integral(PI)and proportional-resonant(PR)controllers.

文摘Spider mites are significant pests in agricultural production.The increasing resistance of spider mites,along with environmental pollution and ecological imbalance caused by their control,is primarily attributed to the long-term use of chemical acaricides in agriculture.In contrast,bioactive substances of biological origin offer advantages such as wide availability,environmental friendliness,and low tendency to induce resistance,making them a research hotspot for spider mite control.This review summarizes recent advances in the use of plant-derived active compounds(exemplified by extracts from Veratrum rhizomes),RNA interference(RNAi)technology,and microorganism-derived active substances for controlling spider mites.These bioactive agents exert acaricidal effects by disrupting the nervous system,interfering with metabolic processes,or silencing key genes in mites,demonstrating favorable efficacy and considerable potential for development.However,challenges remain,including poor environmental stability,slow action,high production costs,and insufficient understanding of their effects on non-target organisms.Therefore,future research should focus on the screening and development of novel bioactive substances of biological origin,elucidation of their mechanisms of action,optimization of formulation technologies,and assessment of their ecological safety.These efforts will provide valuable insights for promoting the advancement of bioactive substances and supporting sustainable agricultural development.

文摘In this paper,a robust decoupled sliding mode control(RDSMC)is proposed for active suspension system(ASS)to balance the trade-off between ride comfort and road holding.The ASS is decoupled into two subsystems:a sprung-mass subsystem(regarding ride comfort)and an unsprung-mass subsystem(regarding road holding),which correspond to two prescribed performance tracking problems.Subsequently,an integrated control law is designed by introducing the unsprung-mass sliding surface into the control of the sprung-mass one.To reduce chattering and stabilize the subsystems,a prescribed-time extended disturbance observer(PT-EDO)is designed,achieving the time-varying switching gain RDSMC(TVSG-RDSMC).Numerical simulations imply that the proposed TVSG-RDSMC can effectively improve ride comfort and road holding with a significantly reduced chattering.

文摘As a crucial component of intelligent chassis systems,air suspension significantly enhances driver comfort and vehicle stability.To further improve the adaptability of commercial vehicles to complex and variable road conditions,this paper proposes a linear motor active suspension with quasi-zero stiffness(QZS)air spring system.Firstly,a dynamic model of the linear motor active suspension with QZS air spring system is established.Secondly,considering the random uncertainties in the linear motor parameters due to manufacturing and environmental factors,a dynamic model and state equations incorporating these uncertainties are constructed using the polynomial chaos expansion(PCE)method.Then,based on H_(2) robust control theory and the Kalman filter,a state feedback control law is derived,accounting for the random parameter uncertainties.Finally,simulation and hardware-in-the-loop(HIL)experimental results demonstrate that the PCE-H_(2) robust controller not only provides better performance in terms of vehicle ride comfort compared to general H_(2) robust controller but also exhibits higher robustness to the effects of random uncertain parameters,resulting in more stable control performance.

文摘The high proportion of uncertain distributed power sources and the access to large-scale random electric vehicle(EV)charging resources further aggravate the voltage fluctuation of the distribution network,and the existing research has not deeply explored the EV active-reactive synergistic regulating characteristics,and failed to realize themulti-timescale synergistic control with other regulatingmeans,For this reason,this paper proposes amultilevel linkage coordinated optimization strategy to reduce the voltage deviation of the distribution network.Firstly,a capacitor bank reactive power compensation voltage control model and a distributed photovoltaic(PV)activereactive power regulationmodel are established.Additionally,an external characteristicmodel of EVactive-reactive power regulation is developed considering the four-quadrant operational characteristics of the EVcharger.Amultiobjective optimization model of the distribution network is then constructed considering the time-series coupling constraints of multiple types of voltage regulators.A multi-timescale control strategy is proposed by considering the impact of voltage regulators on active-reactive EV energy consumption and PV energy consumption.Then,a four-stage voltage control optimization strategy is proposed for various types of voltage regulators with multiple time scales.Themulti-objective optimization is solved with the improvedDrosophila algorithmto realize the power fluctuation control of the distribution network and themulti-stage voltage control optimization.Simulation results validate that the proposed voltage control optimization strategy achieves the coordinated control of decentralized voltage control resources in the distribution network.It effectively reduces the voltage deviation of the distribution network while ensuring the energy demand of EV users and enhancing the stability and economic efficiency of the distribution network.
