Book Stochastic Distribution Control System Design

Download or read book Stochastic Distribution Control System Design written by Lei Guo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-05-13 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A recent development in SDC-related problems is the establishment of intelligent SDC models and the intensive use of LMI-based convex optimization methods. Within this theoretical framework, control parameter determination can be designed and stability and robustness of closed-loop systems can be analyzed. This book describes the new framework of SDC system design and provides a comprehensive description of the modelling of controller design tools and their real-time implementation. It starts with a review of current research on SDC and moves on to some basic techniques for modelling and controller design of SDC systems. This is followed by a description of controller design for fixed-control-structure SDC systems, PDF control for general input- and output-represented systems, filtering designs, and fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) for SDC systems. Many new LMI techniques being developed for SDC systems are shown to have independent theoretical significance for robust control and FDD problems.

Book Bounded Dynamic Stochastic Systems

Download or read book Bounded Dynamic Stochastic Systems written by Hong Wang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decades, although stochastic system control has been studied intensively within the field of control engineering, all the modelling and control strategies developed so far have concentrated on the performance of one or two output properties of the system. such as minimum variance control and mean value control. The general assumption used in the formulation of modelling and control strategies is that the distribution of the random signals involved is Gaussian. In this book, a set of new approaches for the control of the output probability density function of stochastic dynamic systems (those subjected to any bounded random inputs), has been developed. In this context, the purpose of control system design becomes the selection of a control signal that makes the shape of the system outputs p.d.f. as close as possible to a given distribution. The book contains material on the subjects of: - Control of single-input single-output and multiple-input multiple-output stochastic systems; - Stable adaptive control of stochastic distributions; - Model reference adaptive control; - Control of nonlinear dynamic stochastic systems; - Condition monitoring of bounded stochastic distributions; - Control algorithm design; - Singular stochastic systems. A new representation of dynamic stochastic systems is produced by using B-spline functions to descripe the output p.d.f. Advances in Industrial Control aims to report and encourage the transfer of technology in control engineering. The rapid development of control technology has an impact on all areas of the control discipline. The series offers an opportunity for researchers to present an extended exposition of new work in all aspects of industrial control.

Book excerpt: Since its origins in the 1940s, the subject of decision making under uncertainty has grown into a diversified area with application in several branches of engineering and in those areas of the social sciences concerned with policy analysis and prescription. These approaches required a computing capacity too expensive for the time, until the ability to collect and process huge quantities of data engendered an explosion of work in the area. This book provides succinct and rigorous treatment of the foundations of stochastic control; a unified approach to filtering, estimation, prediction, and stochastic and adaptive control; and the conceptual framework necessary to understand current trends in stochastic control, data mining, machine learning, and robotics.

Book Design of Stochastic Linear Control Systems According to Cumulant Based Performance Criteria

Download or read book Design of Stochastic Linear Control Systems According to Cumulant Based Performance Criteria written by Ronald Craig Hartwig and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A set of performance statistics known as cumulants show the way to new design criteria for stochastic linear control systems. The new criteria allow the designer to affect the probability distribution of performance measures which do away with the need for stochastic simulation. Controllers arising in this new format are linear-dynamical and exhibit the classical separation property. A class of controllers which is sub-optional with respect to the new criteria is developed. Controller performance within this class is compared to controller performance resulting from the new design criteria. (Author).

Book Control and System Theory of Discrete Time Stochastic Systems

Download or read book Control and System Theory of Discrete Time Stochastic Systems written by Jan H. van Schuppen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2021-04-23 with total page 925 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book helps students, researchers, and practicing engineers to understand the theoretical framework of control and system theory for discrete-time stochastic systems so that they can then apply its principles to their own stochastic control systems and to the solution of control, filtering, and realization problems for such systems. Applications of the theory in the book include the control of ships, shock absorbers, traffic and communications networks, and power systems with fluctuating power flows. The focus of the book is a stochastic control system defined for a spectrum of probability distributions including Bernoulli, finite, Poisson, beta, gamma, and Gaussian distributions. The concepts of observability and controllability of a stochastic control system are defined and characterized. Each output process considered is, with respect to conditions, represented by a stochastic system called a stochastic realization. The existence of a control law is related to stochastic controllability while the existence of a filter system is related to stochastic observability. Stochastic control with partial observations is based on the existence of a stochastic realization of the filtration of the observed process.​

Book On Stochastic Control System DesigN Methods for Weakly Coupled Large Scale Linear Systems

Download or read book On Stochastic Control System DesigN Methods for Weakly Coupled Large Scale Linear Systems written by Raymond Hon-Sing Kwong and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper considers the problem of decentralized control of two weakly coupled linear stochastic systems, using quadratic performance indices. The basic idea is to have each controller control independently his own system, based upon noisy measurements of his own output. To compensate for the effects of weak coupling upon the resultant performance, fake white plant noise is introduced to each system. The appropriate intensity of the fake plant noise is obtained through the solution of an offline deterministic matrix optimal control problem. The effects of this design method upon the overall system performance are analyzed as a function of the degree of intersystem coupling. (Author).
