Abstract
In this paper, a novel control scheme for systems with input and output time-varying delays is provided in discrete-time domain. The control strategy combines predictor-like techniques with a delay-dependent gain-scheduled extended state observer. The main goal is twofold: (i) to minimize the negative effect of time-varying delays in the closed-loop performance and, (ii) to actively compensate the effect of mismatched disturbances in the controlled output. Moreover, a sufficient condition based on Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI) is provided to obtain the maximum delay interval that ensures the stability of the closed-loop system. Finally, the achieved benefits of the proposal are shown by simulation in open-loop unstable plants, and experimentally validated in a test-bed quadrotor platform.
