摘要

The paper derives a robust networked controller design method for systems with saturation where the delay is large and uncertain, as in one-directional data flow-control. A classical linear H-infinity criterion is first formulated in terms of the sensitivity and complementary sensitivity functions. A new asymptotic constraint is then derived, which specifies the minimum amount of low frequency gain that is needed in the sensitivity function to conclude on non-linear closed loop L-2-stability using the Popov criterion. This result guides the selection of the design criterion, thereby adjusting the linear controller design for better handling of delay and saturation. The controller design method then uses gridding to pre-compute a subset of the L-2 stability region. Based on the pre-computed region, a robust L-2-stable controller can be selected. Alternatively, an adaptive controller could recompute L-2-stable controllers on-line using the pre-computed region. Simulations show that the controller meets the specified stability and performance requirements.
