Summary: This article introduces a new control algorithm for matrix converters based on full-state feedback, utilizing an H-2-linear matrix inequality (LMI) framework to expand the system stability region and introducing a Kalman filter for full system state estimation without the need for additional sensors. The method has a limited computational burden and does not require a high performance control platform. Experimental tests compare the proposed strategy with a previous stabilization approach in terms of stability performance and power quality.

Summary: This study presents an LPV H-∞ control method with an augmented nonlinear observer (ANOB) to improve the position and yaw tracking errors for Sawyer motors. The proposed method utilizes forces and torque modulation, an ANOB, and a Lyapunov-based current controller with an LPV H-∞ state feedback controller to ensure stability of the tracking error dynamics. The ANOB estimates all state variables using only position feedback. The study evaluates the effectiveness of the method through simulation results and compares it with the traditional PID control method.

Summary: This article focuses on the fuzzy fault-tolerant tracking control of Markov jump systems with unknown mismatched faults. Proportional-integral observers are established to reconstruct the faults and system states, and the gains are solved using a linear matrix inequality framework. A backstepping-based fuzzy fault-tolerant tracking control scheme is proposed to ensure uniformly ultimately bounded closed-loop system with rebuilt faults and states obtained from an iterative estimation algorithm. Simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Summary: This paper focuses on the H infinity observer-based control problem for discrete-time singularly perturbed systems (DTSPSs) with nonlinear disturbances. The main contributions of this paper include the construction of a proper observer, the proposal of a sufficient condition for the asymptotic stability of the observer error system, and the design of an observer-based feedback controller based on the input-to-state stability property.

Summary: This paper studies H infinity and robust H infinity control for fractional order systems (FOS) with order 0<<1. Necessary and sufficient conditions for H infinity control and state feedback controller design are proposed. Robust H infinity control for FOS with uncertainty is also studied, and a state feedback controller is designed. These conditions are based on linear matrix inequalities (LMI) and can be easily solved using the LMI toolbox. The effectiveness of these conditions is verified through two numerical examples.

Summary: This paper presents a novel finite-frequency band H-infinity state feedback control strategy for chatter control in turning processes. By incorporating dynamics of regenerative delay, cutting model uncertainty, and actuator output constraint, a FFB H-infinity controller is designed using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and the generalized Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov lemma. Simulation and experimental studies verify the superiority of the developed controller over EFD controllers, demonstrating a significantly enlarged chatter-free region.

Summary: This article introduces a new approach based on a two degrees of freedom control scheme to simplify the complexity of stability and feasibility analysis of MPC and reduce the complexity of relative optimization procedures. The method computes the input through online minimization of a quadratic cost functional and applies it to the closed-loop system. By assuming the input forcing the system to be given by a B-spline function, the constrained optimization problem is greatly simplified.

Summary: This article proposes a new strictly bounded real lemma (BRL) for continuous-time singular Markovian jump systems (SMJSs) in terms of strict linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Based on the proposed BRL, the sufficient condition for state-feedback stabilization is successfully obtained, leading to finding the minimal Script capital H-infinity performance by solving the optimization problem subject to the suggested LMIs. Two examples demonstrate the less conservatism of the proposed method compared with the previous work.

Summary: This study proposes a robust decentralized stochastic H-infinity tracking control design for a large-scale biped robot team system, dealing with team formation tracking problem efficiently. By utilizing the concept of virtual leader and decentralized control approach, biped robots can track their reference paths reliably. Through converting the original design problem into a set of independent optimization problems, the difficulties in solving HJIs are overcome using convex optimization methods, and the team formation tracking control can scale to a very large size easily.

Summary: This paper presents a design of robust hierarchical control for homogeneous linear multi-agent systems (MAS) with parametric uncertainty and external disturbance. The control design adopts a two-layer hierarchical structure where each agent executes local action and exchanges information with neighbouring agents to achieve global stabilisation and disturbance attenuation. Two robust control designs, robust H-infinity hierarchical control and robust H-2 hierarchical control, are proposed. The design of local and global feedback control laws is formulated as a constrained optimization problem using linear matrix inequalities (LMI). Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed robust controls in ensuring robust stability of MAS and improving disturbance attenuation.

By using state and disturbance observers, the system is able to estimate unmeasured states and unknown disturbances, leading to control strategies that reject disturbances and enhance system robustness. Lyapunov stability theory and LMI technology are utilized to design algorithms for checking controller gain and observer performance, with numerical simulations demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
