Item Open Access Numerical computation of H∞ optimal controllers for time delay systems using YALTA(Elsevier B.V., 2016) Yeğin, M. O.; Özbay, HitayNumerical computation of H∞ controllers for time delay systems has been a challenge since 1980s. Even though significant techniques are developed to obtain direct optimal controllers, application of these methods may require manual computation depending on the plant. In this paper, an alternative computational technique is proposed for direct optimal controllers originally obtained by Toker and Özbay (1995). The new controller expression contains finite dimensional transfer functions and an infinite dimensional term, which is stable. Thus it is suitable for finite dimensional approximations and practical non-fragile implementations. In this method, in order to eliminate manual computation of the plant factorization for neutral and retarded delay systems YALTA (a tool developed at INRIA) is used. The new controller computation is implemented in Matlab, and it is illustrated on an example. © 2016Item Open Access On the robust controller design for Hard Disk Drive servo systems with time delays(IEEE, 2013) Yan, P.; Özbay, HitayDue to the existence of various sources of delays, the dynamical model of HDD (Hard Disk Drive) servo systems is actually infinite dimensional, although most of the control algorithms simplified the model with Padé expansions or other finite dimensional approximations. In this paper, a robust loop shaping algorithm is developed for the HDD model with delays by using an h ∞ synthesis approach for infinite dimensional systems. The h∞ controller is derived with a structure of an internal feedback loop including an FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filter and an IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) filter, which facilitates non-fragile implementations. Comparisons to other robust control methods are given and the advantages of this approach are demonstrated in terms of improvement of TMR (track misregistration) and tracking TPI (Track-per-Inch) capability.
