description | In this manuscript, a concept of modifying the results of the existing robust controller decorated by a nonlinear S function is presented to improve the system performance. A case-based study of level control of water tanks illustrates the effectiveness of nonlinear decoration in improving robustness and controlling energy-saving performance with an S-function-decorated robust controller. The performance of the controlled system was analyzed through Lyapunov stability theorem and robust control theory, and was evaluated with a performance index. By demonstrating three comparing simulations of different scenes, it testifies to the fact that the nonlinear decorated robust controller meets the requirement of improving the system performance index. Compared with the nonlinear feedback and the fuzzy control, the performance index of the system using a nonlinear decorated controller is reduced by more than 10% with satisfactory robustness. This nonlinear decorated robust controller is proven to be energy efficient, simple and clear and easy to use, valuable for extensive application. |
