A Design Method for Control System to Attenuate Unknown Input Andoutput Disturbances Using Disturbance Observers

Abstract:

In this paper, we examine a design method for control system to attenuate unknown inputand output disturbances using disturbance observers. The disturbance observers have been usedto estimate the disturbance in the plant. Several papers on design methods of disturbance observershave been published. Recently, parameterizations of all disturbance observers and all linear functionaldisturbance observers for plants with any input and output disturbances were clarified. If parameterizationsof all disturbance observers and all linear functional disturbance observers for any input andoutput disturbances are used, there is a possibility that we can design control systems to attenuate unknowninput and output disturbances effectively. However, no paper has examined a design methodfor control system using parameterizations of all disturbance observers and all linear functional disturbanceobservers for plants with any input and output disturbances. In this paper, in order to attenuateunknown input and output disturbances effectively, we propose a design method for control systemusing parameterizations of all disturbance observers and all linear functional disturbance observersfor plants with any input and output disturbances. In addition, control characteristics of the proposedcontrol system are clarified.
