When faced with problems such as traffic state estimation, state prediction, and congestion identification for the expressway network, a novel switched observer design strategy with jump states is required to reconstruct the traffic scene more realistically. In this study, the expressway network is firstly modeled as the special discrete switched system, which is called the piecewise affine system model, a partition of state subspace is introduced, and the convex polytopes are utilized to describe the combination modes of cells. Secondly, based on the hybrid dynamic traffic network model, the corresponding switched observer (including state jumps) is designed. Furthermore, by applying multiple Lyapunov functions and S-procedure theory, the observer design problem can be converted into the existence issue of the solutions to the linear matrix inequality. As a result, a set of gain matrices can be obtained. The estimated states start to jump when the mode changes occur, and the updated value of the estimated state mainly depends on the estimated and the measured values at the previous time. Lastly, the designed state jump observer is applied to the Beijing Jingkai expressway, and the superiority and the feasibility are demonstrated in the application results.

The successful application of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) depends on the traffic flow at any time with high-precision and large-scale assessments, it is necessary to create a dynamic traffic network model to evaluate and forecast traffic. Dynamic route choice model sections of the run-time function are very important to the dynamic traffic network model. To simplify the dynamic traffic modeling, improve the calculation accuracy and save computation time, the flow on the section of the interrelationship between the exit flow and number of vehicles are analyzed, a run-time functions into the flow using only sections of the said sections are established.

We propose a dynamic traffic network model and give the equilibrium condition and the equivalent variational inequality of the network. In this model, instead of the influence of inflow rate and output rate on the link congestion, the influence of the adjacent links at the same paths is considered; in this case, the equivalence between the equilibrium condition and the variational inequality is proved. Then we take an example about the paradox using the variational inequality and find that the probability and the severity that Braess’ paradox occurs change with the influence of other links changing. Subsequently, we discuss the influence of other links on whether the adding link works under the dynamic system optimal. At last, we give the relationship between the total congestion under dynamic user equilibrium and that under dynamic system optimal. The results imply that we should take some methods and adjust the interaction between links rationally with the dynamic change of traffic situations.

For several decades, disturbance observers (DOs) have been widely utilized to enhance tracking performance by reducing external disturbances in different industrial applications. However, although a DO is a verified control structure, a conventional DO does not guarantee stability. This paper proposes a stability-guaranteed design method, while maintaining the DO structure. The proposed design method uses a linear matrix inequality (LMI)-based H∞ control because the LMI-based control guarantees the stability of closed loop systems. However, applying the DO design to the LMI framework is not trivial because there are two control targets, whereas the standard LMI stabilizes a single control target. In this study, the problem is first resolved by building a single fictitious model because the two models are serial and can be considered as a single model from the Q-filter point of view. Using the proposed design framework, all-stabilizing Q filters are calculated. In addition, for the stability and robustness of the DO, two metrics are proposed to quantify the stability and robustness and combined into a single unified index to satisfy both metrics. Based on an application example, it is verified that the proposed method is effective, with a performance improvement of 10.8%.

In this paper, a nonlinear observer based sliding mode control (NOSMC) approach for air-path and a model-based observer for oxygen concentration in the diesel engine equipped with a variable geometry turbocharger and exhaust gas recirculation is introduced. We propose a less conservative observer design technique for Lipschitz nonlinear systems using Ricatti equations. The observer gains are obtained by solving the linear matrix inequality (LMI). Then a robust nonlinear control method, sliding mode control is applied for the states of intake and exhaust manifold pressure and compressor mass flow rate for the sake of the minimization of emissions. The proposed NOSMC controller is applied on a mean value model of turbocharged diesel engine. Besides this, a model-based observer is developed to estimate the oxygen concentration in the intake and exhaust manifolds owing to its significance in reducing emissions of diesel engines. The validation and efficiency of the proposed method are demonstrated by AMESim and Matlab/Simulink co-simulation results.

This paper is concerned with the design of a robust observer for the switched positive linear system with uncertainties. Sufficient conditions of building a robust observer are established by using the multiple copositive Lyapunov-krasovskii function and the average dwell time approach. By introducing an auxiliary slack variable, these sufficient conditions are transformed into LMI (linear matrix inequality). A numerical example is given to illustrate the validities of obtained results.

This paper addresses the problem of unknown input fractional-order functional state observer design for a class of fractional-order time-delay nonlinear systems. The nonlinearities consist of two parts where one part is assumed to satisfy both the one-sided Lipschitz condition and the quadratically inner-bounded condition and the other is not necessary to be Lipschitz and can be regarded as an unknown input, making the wider class of considered nonlinear systems. By taking the advantages of recent results on Caputo fractional derivative of a quadratic function, we derive new sufficient conditions with the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the systems. Four examples are also provided to show the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed method.

This paper investigates the problem of observer design for simultaneous states and faults estimation for a class of discrete-time descriptor linear models in presence of actuator and sensor faults. The idea of the present result is based on the second equivalent form of implicit model [1] which permits to separate the differential and algebraic equations in the considered singular model, and the use of an explicit augmented model structure. At that stage, an observer is built to estimate simultaneously the unknown states, the actuator faults, and the sensor faults. Next, the explicit structure of the augmented model is established. Then, an observer is built to estimate simultaneously the unknown states, the actuator faults, and the sensor faults. By using the Lyapunov approach, the convergence of the state estimation error of the augmented system is analyzed, and the observer’s gain matrix is achieved by solving only one linear matrix inequality (LMI). At long last, an illustrative model is given to show the performance and capability of the proposed strategy.

This paper addresses robust H∞ control and stabilization of switched linear systems with norm-bounded time-varying uncertainties. First, based on multiple Lyapunov functions methodology, a sufficient condition is derived for robust stabilization with a prescribed disturbance attenuation level γ only by employing state-dependent switching rules. Then the robust H∞ control synthesis via switched state feedback is studied. It is shown that a switched state-feedback controller can be designed to stabilize the switched systems with an H∞-norm bound if a matrix inequality based condition is feasible. This condition can be dealt with as linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) provided that the associated parameters are selected in advance. All the results presented can be regarded as an extension of some existing results for both switched and nonswitched systems.
