Discrete Time-Coupled State-Dependent Riccati Equation Control of Nonlinear Mechatronic Systems

摘要

A discrete-time-coupled state-dependent Riccati equation (CSDRE) control strategy is structured in this paper for synthesizing state feedback controllers satisfying the combined nonlinear quadratic regulator (NLQR) and H infinity robust control performance objectives. Under smoothness assumptions, the nonlinear plant dynamics can be formulated into state-dependent coefficient form through direct parameterization. By solving a pair of coupled state-dependent Riccati equations, the optimal stabilizing solutions can achieve inherent stability, nonlinear quadratic optimality, and H infinity disturbance attenuation performance. The established two-player Nash's game theory is utilized for developing both of the finite and infinite time optimal control laws. Furuta swing-up pendulum, a representative nonholonomic underactuated nonlinear system, is stabilized in real-time for validating the robustness and potential of proposed approach in mechatronics applications.
