Full State Feedback H-Infinity Controller Design for Nonlinear Systems

Abstract

Real world systems are inherently nonlinear in nature. Over the last few decades, nonlinear systems are regarded as the most significant issue in control theory. In this work, a nonlinear full state feedback H-infinity controller is proposed for nonlinear systems. The black hole optimization method (BHO) is used as an effective optimization technique to find the optimal parameters for the proposed controller based on the proposed cost function. The suggested controller gain matrix is computed by solving the H-infinity algebraic Riccati equation. As case studies, two types of nonlinear systems are demonstrated to demonstrate the utility of the proposed controller. Finally, simulation findings show that the suggested nonlinear controller improves the stability and performance of nonlinear systems by compensating them and compelling their states to track the reference input asymptotically with a workable and feasible control action.
