In this paper, a new method for the design of the preview controller for a class of discrete-time systems is proposed based on the virtual system. Firstly, by taking the known future reference signal as the output, the virtual system with similar structures to the controlled system is constructed. Then, the augmented error system is received by translating the controlled system to it and by integrating the error equation. Thus, the tracking problem of the controlled system is transformed into the regulation problem of the augmented error system. Secondly, in view of the minimum principle, the optimal controller of the augmented error system is acquired, and the preview controller of the controlled system is also gained. Further, by discussing the stabilizability and detectability of the augmented error system, the conditions for the existence of the unique positive semidefinite solution to an algebraic Riccati equation are obtained. By using the method in this paper, making difference and dimension expansion for the state equation in designing the augmented error system is avoided and the output can track the reference signals better. Finally, the numerical simulation shows the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

The robust preview tracking control problem of uncertain discrete-time systems satisfying matching conditions is considered. First, we use the difference between a system state and its steady-state value, instead of the usual difference between system states, to derive an augmented error system that includes the future information on the reference signal and disturbance signal to transform the tracking problem into a regulator problem. Then, a robust preview controller of the augmented error system is proposed by integrating Lyapunov stability theory and LMI approach. Research shows that the preview controller gain matrix can be determined by solving a LMI. The proposed robust preview controller in this paper cannot only guarantee the asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system, but also enhance the interference rejection properties. An integrator is applied to make sure that the output tracks the reference signal with no static error. The numerical simulation example also illustrates the effectiveness of the results presented in the paper.

This paper considers robust fault-detection problems for linear discrete time systems. It is shown that the optimal robust detection filters for several well-recognized robust fault-detection problems, such asℋ−/ℋ∞,ℋ2/ℋ∞, andℋ∞/ℋ∞problems, are the same and can be obtained by solving a standard algebraic Riccati equation. Optimal filters are also derived for many other optimization criteria and it is shown that some well-studied and seeming-sensible optimization criteria for fault-detection filter design could lead to (optimal) but useless fault-detection filters.

A finite-time bounded tracking control problem for a class of linear discrete-time systems subject to disturbances is investigated. Firstly, by applying a difference method to constructing the error system, the problem is transformed into a finite-time boundedness problem of the output vector of the error system. In fact, this is a finite-time boundedness problem with respect to the partial variables. Secondly, based on the partial stability theory and the research methods of finite-time boundedness problem, a state feedback controller formulated in form of linear matrix inequality is proposed. Based on this, a finite-time bounded tracking controller of the original system is obtained. Finally, a numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the controller.

A preview controller design method for discrete-time systems based on LMI is proposed. First, we use the difference between a system state and its steady-state value, instead of the usual difference between system states, to transform the tracking problem into a regulator problem. Then, based on the Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, the preview controller ensuring asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system for the derived augmented error system is found. And an extended functional observer is designed in this paper which can achieve disturbance attenuation in the estimation process; as a result, the state of the system can be reconstructed rapidly and accurately. The controller gain matrix is obtained by solving an LMI problem. By incorporating the controller obtained into the original system, we obtain the preview controller of the system under consideration. To make sure that the output tracks the reference signal without steady-state error, an integrator is introduced. The numerical simulation example also illustrates the effectiveness of the results in the paper.

This paper studies the disturbance preview optimal control problem for discrete-time systems with multirate output sampling. By constructing the error system and using the discrete lifting technique, we reduce the multirate preview control problem to a single-rate one for a formal augmented system. Then, applying preview control theory, the optimal preview control law of the augmented error system is obtained. Meanwhile, we introduce a discrete integrator to eliminate the static error. Then we study a method to design a controller with preview action for the original system. And the existence conditions of the controller are also discussed in detail. Finally, numerical simulation is included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Fault detection is a critical step in the fault diagnosis of modern complex systems. An important notion in fault detection is the smallest gain of system sensitivity, denoted asℋ−index, which measures the worst fault sensitivity. This paper is concerned with characterizingℋ−index for linear discrete time systems. First, a necessary and sufficient condition on the lower bound ofℋ−index in finite time horizon for linear discrete time-varying systems is developed. It is characterized in terms of the existence of solution to a backward difference Riccati equation with an inequality constraint. The result is further extended to systems with unknown initial condition based on a modifiedℋ−index. In addition, for linear time-invariant systems in infinite time horizon, based on the definition of theℋ−index in frequency domain, a condition in terms of algebraic Riccati equation is developed. In comparison with the well-known bounded real lemma, it is found thatℋ−index is not completely dual toℋ∞norm. Finally, several numerical examples are given to illustrate the main results.
