Abstract

In this article, a robust H∞ fault tolerant control law is addressed for a class of the uncertain dynamical systems represented via linear fractional transformation. To this objective, a state-feedback controller law is utilized for achieving the control objective. Thus, a linear matrix inequality based performance condition would be derived to guarantee that the disturbance suppression is accomplished in the uncertain system. Hence, the gains of the robust H∞ controller would be suitably determined by checking the feasibility of such a linear matrix inequality problem. The proposed control technique is numerically simulated in two dynamical uncertain systems (i.e., a typical control system and a mechanical robotic arm). Considering the disturbance rejections and transient responses, the results illustrate the efficiency of the recommended robust technique compared with the existing control methods.
