Abstract
In this paper, a linear parameter-varying (LPV) control design method is evaluated experimentally on an active magnetic bearing (AMB) system. Linear matrix inequality (LMI) conditions for control design of affine parameter-dependent systems using parameter-dependent Lyapunov functions are proposed. A speed-dependent LPV model of the AMB system is derived. Speed-dependent model uncertainties are identified using artificial neural networks (ANNs), and a parameter-dependent uncertainty weighting function is approximated for LPV control synthesis. Experiments are conducted to verify the robustness of LPV controllers for a wide range of rotor speeds. This LPV control approach eliminates the need for gain-scheduling, and provides better performance and less conservativeness over a wide range of rotational speeds than controllers designed with constant uncertainty weighting functions.
