Abstract: A Variable Structure Model Reference Adaptive Controller using state variables is proposed for a class of multi input-multi output systems. Adaptation law is of variable structure type and switching functions is designed based on stability requirements. Global exponential stability is proved based on Lyapunov criterion. Transient behavior is analyzed using sliding mode control and shows perfect model following at a finite time.
Abstract: In this paper, Neuro-Fuzzy based Fuzzy Subtractive
Clustering Method (FSCM) and Self Tuning Fuzzy PD-like
Controller (STFPDC) were used to solve non-linearity and trajectory
problems of pitch AND yaw angles of Twin Rotor MIMO system
(TRMS). The control objective is to make the beams of TRMS reach
a desired position quickly and accurately. The proposed method
could achieve control objectives with simpler controller. To simplify
the complexity of STFPDC, ANFIS based FSCM was used to
simplify the controller and improve the response. The proposed
controllers could achieve satisfactory objectives under different input
signals. Simulation results under MATLAB/Simulink® proved the
improvement of response and superiority of simplified STFPDC on
Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC).
Abstract: We study the performance of compressed beamforming
weights feedback technique in generalized triangular decomposition
(GTD) based MIMO system. GTD is a beamforming technique that
enjoys QoS flexibility. The technique, however, will perform at its
optimum only when the full knowledge of channel state information
(CSI) is available at the transmitter. This would be impossible in
the real system, where there are channel estimation error and limited
feedback. We suggest a way to implement the quantized beamforming
weights feedback, which can significantly reduce the feedback data,
on GTD-based MIMO system and investigate the performance of
the system. Interestingly, we found that compressed beamforming
weights feedback does not degrade the BER performance of the
system at low input power, while the channel estimation error
and quantization do. For comparison, GTD is more sensitive to
compression and quantization, while SVD is more sensitive to the
channel estimation error. We also explore the performance of GTDbased
MU-MIMO system, and find that the BER performance starts
to degrade largely at around -20 dB channel estimation error.
Abstract: In this paper, a neural network tuned fuzzy controller
is proposed for controlling Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO)
systems. For the convenience of analysis, the structure of MIMO
fuzzy controller is divided into single input single-output (SISO)
controllers for controlling each degree of freedom. Secondly,
according to the characteristics of the system-s dynamics coupling, an
appropriate coupling fuzzy controller is incorporated to improve the
performance. The simulation analysis on a two-level mass–spring
MIMO vibration system is carried out and results show the
effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy controller. The performance
though improved, the computational time and memory used is
comparatively higher, because it has four fuzzy reasoning blocks and
number may increase in case of other MIMO system. Then a fuzzy
neural network is designed from a set of input-output training data to
reduce the computing burden during implementation. This control
strategy can not only simplify the implementation problem of fuzzy
control, but also reduce computational time and consume less
memory.
