Dynamic compensator-based output feedback controller design for uncertain systems with adjustable robustness (Q1629550)

Summary: A low-order dynamics compensator-based output feedback stabilization method for a class of uncertain linear MIMO systems with mismatched disturbances is presented. Since all the system states are not measurable, the proposed controller inherently has low-pass filter property in which it can successfully replace the derivative terms of the system output and hence effectively estimate the input disturbance. The control scheme proposed here can simultaneously consider the input saturation problem and obtain the desired performance. Although the system has unknown uncertainties and disturbances, the uniformly ultimate boundedness of system states in the closed-loop system is analytically shown using the Lyapunov method. Finally, two numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed scheme.
