H(infinity) and H2 optimal controllers for periodic and multi-rate systems

The solutions to the optimal l2 to l2 disturbance rejection problem H(infinity) as well as to the LQG (linear quadratic Gaussian) H2 problem in periodic systems using the lifting technique are presented. Both problems involve a causality condition on the optimal LTI (linear time invariant) compensator when viewed in the lifted domain. The H(infinity) problem is solved using the Nehari's theorem, whereas in the H2 problem the solution is obtained using the projection theorem in Hilbert spaces. The authors demonstrate that exactly the same method of solution to the H(infinity) and H2 problems in periodic systems applies when considering the same problems in multirate sampled data systems.

Target Tracking with Distributed Sensing and Optimal Data Migration

The paper presents an Extended Kalman Filter based framework for airborne target tracking using adaptive information fusion from multi-modal multi-rate distributed sensors network. First, the tracking algorithm execution location is determined using an optimal data migration strategy, which also computes the associated delays for each sensor data to arrive at the computing location. Next, the fast (zero-delay) sensors information is dynamically fused in the filter correction procedure at the arrival instance of each valid sensor reading. Finally, the target estimation is updated based on the valid slow (delayed) data, which are grouped according to the delay-time steps before application of the Larsen's method. This approach is applied to the synthetic sensor data generated by means of the ground based radar and camera models for the simulated target flight in Reflection simulation environment.

Hybrid suboptimal control of multi-rate multi-loop sampled-data systems

A hybrid state-space controller is developed for suboptimal digital control of multirate multiloop multivariable continuous-time systems. First, an LQR is designed for a continuous-time subsystem which has a large bandwidth and is connnected in the inner loop of the overall system. The designed LQR would optimally place the eigenvalues of a closed-loop subsystem in the common region of an open sector bounded by sector angles + or - pi/2k for k = 2 or 3 from the negative real axis and the left-hand side of a vertical line on the negative real axis in the s-plane. Then, the developed continuous-time state-feedback gain is converted into an equivalent fast-rate discrete-time state-feedback gain via a digital redesign technique (Tsai et al. 1989, Shieh et al. 1990) reviewed here. A real state reconstructor is redeveloped utilizing the fast-rate input-output data of the system of interest. The design procedure of multiloop multivariable systems using multirate samplers is shown, and a terminal homing missile system example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
