An experimental comparison of different hierarchical self-tuning regulatory control procedures for under-actuated mechatronic systems.
This paper presents an experimental comparison of four different hierarchical self-tuning regulatory control procedures in enhancing the robustness of the under-actuated systems against bounded exogenous disturbances. The proposed hierarchical control procedure augments the ubiquitous Linear-Quadrat...

This paper presents an experimental comparison of four different hierarchical self-tuning regulatory control procedures in enhancing the robustness of the under-actuated systems against bounded exogenous disturbances. The proposed hierarchical control procedure augments the ubiquitous Linear-Quadratic-Regulator (LQR) with an online reconfiguration block that acts as a superior regulator to dynamically adjust the critical weighting-factors of LQR's quadratic-performance-index (QPI). The Algebraic-Riccati-Equation (ARE) uses these updated weighting-factors to re-compute the optimal control problem, after every sampling interval, to deliver time-varying state-feedback gains. This article experimentally compares four state-of-the-art rule-based online adaptation mechanisms that dynamically restructure the constituent blocks of the ARE. The proposed hierarchical control procedures are synthesized by self-adjusting the (i) controller's degree-of-stability, (ii) the control-weighting-factor of QPI, (iii) the state-weighting-factors of QPI as a function of "state-error-phases", and (iv) the state-weighting-factors of QPI as a function of "state-error-magnitudes". Each adaptation mechanism is formulated via pre-calibrated hyperbolic scaling functions that are driven by state-error-variations. The implications of each mechanism on the controller's behaviour are analyzed in real-time by conducting credible hardware-in-the-loop experiments on the QNET Rotary-Pendulum setup. The rotary pendulum is chosen as the benchmark platform owing to its under-actuated configuration and kinematic instability. The experimental outcomes indicate that the latter self-adaptive controller demonstrates superior adaptability and disturbances-rejection capability throughout the operating regime. |
