1. Introduction

Now the inertially stabilized platforms are widely used to stabilize and point sensors, cameras, antennas and weapon systems operated at the vehicles of the different type [1]. The further progress of the above listed equipment by accuracy and other operating performances is impossible without stabilization of a base, at which they are mounted. This proves the actuality of the inertially stabilized platforms technology development. It should be noted, that the above stated platforms assigned for operation at the ground vehicles are of great importance for Ukrainian device-building in the area of both civil and military applications.

Operation of the observation equipment at the moving platforms mounted at the ground vehicles is accompanied by change of their parameters in the wide range (±50 %) and action of the intensive and various external (coordinate) disturbances. As a rule, the most changed parameters are the inertia moment and the rigidity of elastic connection between an actuator and a base at which a plant is mounted [1].

Therefore it is expedient to solve the problem of the ground vehicle stabilized platforms design using the principles of robust control. The main goal of the design of the researched robust systems is the search of the control law providing the system accuracy in the give limits in spite of pres-

ence uncertainties in the system mathematical description. The uncertainties may be caused by many factors such as the external disturbances, parametrical and structural changes.

One of perspective approaches to the robust system design lies in using the H2 -synthesis [2, 3]. The choice of the method of the robust structural synthesis depends on features of the designed system and conditions of its operation. In designing the inertially stabilized platforms for ground vehicles it is necessary to take into consideration two factors. In the first place, some parameters of the ground vehicle stabilized platforms vary in the wide range during their operation. In the second place, the researched systems operate in the difficult conditions of the external disturbances caused by irregularities of the relief of the road or terrain, by which a ground vehicle is moving.

It should be noted, that creation of the modern inertially stabilized platforms, as a rule, is implemented by means of the MatLab software including special toolboxes for the automated optimal design of the robust systems [4].

of their technology progress are represented in [5]. Features of control by platforms with the useful load operated at vehicles, structural schemes of feedback and feedforward control for stabilization and tracking systems of the researched type are given in [5, 6]. The basic design phases of the inertially stabilized platforms are described in [7]. The newest applications and gimbals features are mentioned in [8]. But all these papers do not research such aspect of the inertially stabilized platforms design as their immunity to the internal and external disturbances action. In other words, the robustness aspect is not mentioned in these publications.

There are many papers, which deal with the theory and application of robust systems as a whole, for example, [9, 10]. In these papers problems of the robust systems analysis and synthesis are discussed. Now the application of the HM -synthesis becomes widespread for the robust systems design. For example, the basic principles of the HM -synthesis procedure applied to an unmanned helicopter are given in [11]. In its turn, loop shaping methods of the HM -theory are widely used today. They have such essential advantage as the possibility to design the system with the desired amplitude-frequency characteristics. Such approach to control by unmanned aerial vehicles is given in [12]. In contrast to this paper, publication [13] represents problems more important for the inertially stabilized platforms design, as deals with the robust control of the electric drive based on the HM -synthesis [13].

It should be noted, that the HM -theory has well known fundamental theoretical achievements but its applications for the different areas require the development of the appropriate methods and procedures. So, the results obtained for the HM -synthesis of vehicles and drives, of course, may be useful as a whole, but the design of the robust system for stabilization and tracking of the inertially stabilized platforms requires the development of the special methods taking into consideration the features of their mathematical description and operation conditions.

The standard procedure of the HM -synthesis solved by means of (2)-(5) equations is well developed in the HM -theory. It is important that this procedure is provided for software developed in MatLab system. The main problems of such procedure creation relative to the concrete system are the development of the mathematical description, forming augmented plant and creation of the optimization functional.

The mathematical model of the system for stabilization and tracking of the observation equipment assigned for operation at the ground vehicles was developed in [14]. An algorithm of the robust system assigned for the platform with observation equipment operated at the ground vehicle is represented in [15]. But the modern requirements to the researched system accuracy define the necessity to use the stabilization and tracking systems with two-degrees-of-freedom [16]. The actuality of this choice is proved by the paper [17], which deals with the design of the rocket with two-degrees-of-freedom.

The newness of the suggested research lies in the introduction of the optimization functional, which takes into consideration the influence of the coordinate disturbances and measurement noise. Respectively the features of the generalized plant forming for the researched system and approach to loop shaping were considered too.

It should be noted, that check of the synthesized system requires using mathematical models of the random disturbances caused by irregularities of the relief of the road and

terrain by which the ground vehicle is moving. Such models were developed in [18].

Achievement of the high accuracy of tracking processes requires using control both by the error signal, which represents the difference between the reference and output signals of the system, and by the reference signal. In this case a system must include two controllers, which implement feedback and feedforward control. Configuration of the control by the plant in such systems is implemented by means of the prefilter and feedback controller. The problem must be solved taking into consideration the influence of the external (coordinate) disturbances and measurement noise.

3. Research purpose and tasks

The purpose of the research is the development of the HM -synthesis procedure directed to the creation of the robust two-degree-of-freedom system by means of the loop shaping methods. The synthesized system must have immunity to the influence of the coordinate disturbances and measurement noise.

To achieve this research purpose it is necessary to solve the following tasks such as:

- creation of the plant mathematical description;

- choice of the loop shaping method and appropriate weighting transfer functions;

- forming the augmented plant;

- introduction of the sensitivity functions by the coordinate disturbance and the measurement noise into the optimization functional;

- checking the results of the designed system efficiency by means of modeling in the MatLab system.

4. Research materials and methods

4. 1. Standard problem of HM -control

In accordance with the formulation [19] the standard problem of the HM -control may be represented in the following form (Fig. 1).

w. P z fc

w w

u y

K 4

Fig. 1. Structural scheme of the standard H^-control

The system represented in Fig. 1 consists of the plant and the controller described by the matrix transfer functions P(s), K(s), which are fractional-rational and proper. In the general case the input vector w includes disturbances, measurement noise and reference signals. The input vector u represents control systems. The output vector z defines the quality of control processes, for example, the reference signal error. The output vector y consists of observed signals, which may be used for feedback implementation. The plant P in Fig. 1 represents the generalized plant and the controller K is the general controller respectively. In the

case of augmentation the generalized plant is augmented by the weighting transfer functions.

The control system shown in Fig. may be represented in the state space in the following way [3, 4]:

x (t)" A B1 B2 " x(t) "

z(t) = C1 D11 D12 w(t) . (1)

y(t) C2 D21 D22 u(t)

The first usage of the HM -synthesis for the design of control systems was represented in [20]. Usage of such approach ensures the robust performance and the robust stabilization of the designed system. The advantage of the method is the possibility to synthesize a system with the desired amplitude-frequency characteristics. The disadvantage of the method is the determinative influence of the mathematical description adequacy and the necessity of the heuristic choice of the weighting transfer functions.

In practical applications it is necessary to carry out a search of the suboptimal controller, when the HM -norm of the closed loop system transfer function will not exceed some small given number y [3].

The algorithm of the search G the HM -suboptimal controller is repre sented in many books [3, 4]. In accordance with the algorithm for the control system described by the matrix equation (1) for the search of the suboptimal controller K(s) it is necessary to carry out the following steps [3].

1. To solve the algebraic Riccati equation relative to X

4. 2. Classification of methods for the robust structural synthesis

Methods of the HM -synthesis (robust structural synthesis) may be classified by different signs such as quantity of degrees of freedom, ways of loop shaping and augmented plant forming.

Classification of the HM -synthesis methods by quantity of degrees of freedom

Methods for the design of the robust systems with various quantities of degrees of freedom differ by an approach to the controller configuration.

The structures of controllers with the different quantity of degrees of freedom [2, 3] are represented in Fig. 2.

Classification of the HM -synthesis methods by loop shaping ways

There are such control loop shaping ways as forming the closed loop system frequency characteristics based on analysis of the transfer function and analysis of the frequency characteristics of the system signals [3].

In the first case, HM -optimization provides forming the desired frequency characteristics of the closed loop systems due to determination of the transfer function singular values. The maximum singular values may be formed by means of the given upper bounds. Such approach may ensure the desired bandwidth and slope of the amplitude-frequency characteristic.

In the second case, the given set of the input signals is used and some their errors are minimized. Usually, such input signals as external disturbances, measurement noise and reference signals are believed to be components of this set.

So, the HM -synthesis may be used for the design of the feedback control systems based on shaping the desired frequency characteristics of the closed loop system. In the most

(4)

e

a

cases, designing robust systems it is possible to estimate only the upper bound of deviation of the desired frequency characteristics from nominal ones. There are different approaches to the determination of the bounded characteristics. One of the possible approaches uses the results of the experimental tests for plotting bounded characteristics [3]. But in the most cases, the information about frequency characteristics of the real system is absent before the design process. The most widespread method of the bounded characteristics determination is based on the frequency requirements to the designed system.

There are methods of the robust systems design grounded on shaping the transfer function of the open loop system. And the goal of these methods is improvement of the frequency characteristics of the closed loop system. Such procedure of the HM -synthesis based on the robust stabilization and taking into consideration the parametrical disturbances given by means of coprime factorization is represented in [3, 22].

The HM -synthesis methods based on analysis of the system signals features are well agreed with the multi-purpose problems solution. But implementation of these methods requires using the complicated mathematical description, namely, mathematical description of the plant, models of uncertainties, determination of the class of the system input signals and norms of the signal errors [3]. For the latter methods the signal values and not the transfer functions characteristics are of great importance. Moreover, using these methods it is desirable to use the weighting functions for description of the desired or known spectra of the external signals frequencies and desired frequency spectra of the error signals. The weighting functions are used also if the uncertainty model represents the normalized disturbance ( || A |L < 1 ). The successful implementation of the HM -synthesis requires stable and proper weighting functions [3, 4].

Classification of the HM -synthesis methods by a way to apply the weighting transfer function for extension of a plant

There are different methods to form a plant by means of the weighting transfer functions such as shaping the required transfer function of the closed loop system; using of pre- and post-compensators for extension of the open loop system and weighting functions of the system signals. It should be noticed, that designed systems become extended after application of the matrix weighting transfer functions. Therefore they are called augmented [3, 4].

The structural schemes of the augmented systems obtained by means of all the above stated ways are represented in Fig. 3.

Augmentation of the plant by means of the weighting transfer functions in accordance with Fig. 3, a, where the augmented plant with the additional outputs z1, z2, z3 is represented, is typical for the method of the mixed sensitivity. The weighting transfer functions W1, W2, W3 are used for decreasing the reference signal error, limitation of the control power and ensuring system robustness.

For the HM -synthesis procedures, the influence of all uncertainties acting on the plant is estimated by the single multiplicative disturbance AM. Then the requirements to the designed system may be determined in the following way [3, 4, 22]

ô(S(jco))<|W1-1(jœ)|; ô(S(jco))<|W2-1(jœ)|;

ô(T(jco))<|W-1(jœ)|, where ô is the maximum singular value.

In this case, the following condition must be satisfied [3, 4, 22]

ô(W1-1(jra)) + ô(W3-1(jra)) > 1 for Vra.

(6)

The choice of the weighting transfer functions satisfying conditions (5), (6) is an ambiguous problem, which requires for its solution heuristic methods, for example, cut and try method taking into consideration experience of the system designer.

The approach to robust systems design based on determination of the singular values of the system transfer function and minimization of the HM -norm may be implemented by means of Robust Control Toolbox of MatLab software [22].

If W1, W2 represent pre- and post-compensators respectively, the augmented plant with the bounded frequency characteristics Gs will be determined by the expression [3]

Gs = W2GW1.

Finally, this problem may be formulated as the HM -synthesis problem, for which the signals w , z , y , u may be determined in the following way

(9)

Usage of the pre- and post-compensators ensures limitation of the singular values of the open loop system transfer function and shaping desired frequency characteristics of the closed loop system transfer function. It should be noticed, that the pre-compensator provides the feedforward by the reference signal.

Usage of the weighting functions in the statement of the HM -synthesis problem for the method based on analysis of the system signals is shown in Fig. 3, c. In this scheme G and Gd represent the plant and disturbance nominal models and K is the designed controller. The weighting functions of such external signals as disturbances, reference signal and measurement noise Wd, Wp Wn may be constants or transfer functions [3]. The weighting function Wref represents a desired closed loop system transfer function between the weighting reference signal rs and the system output signal y. The weighting functions We and Wd characterize the desired frequency spectrum of the error z1 = y - yref and control signal z2 = u respectively.

For the system represented in Fig. 3, c it is desired to minimize the Hm -norm of the transfer function from the input signals r, d, n to the output signals z1, z2 [3]

4. 3. HM -synthesis of robust two-degree-of-freedom stabilization and tracking system

There are different approaches to the design of robust two-degree-of-freedom systems. The approach represented in [21] is based on the robust stabilization and definition of the parametrical disturbances by means of the normalized coprime factorization. It is based on the HM -synthesis procedure taking into consideration forming the desired amplitude-frequency characteristics by means of augmentation of the open loop system transfer function. Forming the augmented plant is implemented by means of the pre- and post-compensators.

But in designing systems for control by the motion of the platforms with the payload operated at the vehicles, it is necessary to take into consideration the influence of the coordinate disturbances. For the stabilization systems operated at the ground vehicles the unbalance moment and the moment of friction in gimbals bearings, and the moment caused by the vehicle angular rate due to irregularities of the relief of the road or terrain are of great importance. In designing the system it is necessary to take into consideration the influence of the measurement noise too. The structural scheme of the two-degree-of-freedom system, which in contrast to [3] takes into consideration the coordinate disturbances and measurement noise are represented in Fig. 4.

Here the feedback controller K2 provides the robust stability and the prefilter K1 ensures correspondence between responses of the closed loop system and the reference model [3].

The problem lies in determination of the controller K = [K K2 ], which provides stabilization of the plant augmented by the pre- and post-compensators in accordance with the expression (7) Gs = W2GWt and represented as a result of the normalized coprime factorization Gs = M-1Ns [3]. During such controller design it is necessary to ensure minimization of the H -norms of the transfer functions

and

The problem of synthesis of the two-degree-of-freedom system represented in Fig. 4 may be represented as the standard problem of the HM -synthesis (Fig. 1) and solved by means of Robust Control Toolbox.

The control of the augmented plant may be defined in the following way [3]

us = [Ki K2

where K1 is the prefilter transfer function, K2 is the feedback controller transfer function; P is the reference scale signal; ys is the measured output signal; Tref is the reference transfer function chosen by a designer with the purpose to form the desired amplitude-frequency characteristics; p is the scalar value.

In contrast to the known problem statements the influence of the coordinate disturbance d and measurement noise n is taken into consideration in this paper. The goal of the robust structural procedure is to ensure minimization of the HM -norm of the transfer function of the system with input and output signals, which in accordance with Fig. 4 may be represented by vectors

The generalized plant transfer function in the expression (13) may be represented in the following way

4. Application of robust structural method for design of stabilized platforms with observation equipment operated at ground vehicles

Design of the robust two-degree-of-freedom system for stabilization of a platform with the payload operated at the grounded vehicles may be implemented by the HM -synthesis method based on robust stabilization, loop shaping by means of pre- and post-compensators and the new optimization functional (12) taking into consideration the sensitivity functions by the coordinate disturbance and measurement noise.

This method consists of some steps including creation of the full and linearized mathematical descriptions, representation of the linear model in the state space (15), choice of the reference model, designed parameter p, and weighting transfer func-

(12)

tions, which form the system frequency characteristics, implementation of the HM -synthesis standard procedure, checking of synthesized system operation by means of the full model with non-linearities inherent to a real system and repetition of the synthesis procedure in the case of need if necessary.

In the modern problems of control laws synthesis the plant is considered with the actuator and measuring system as a single object. Obviously, that the concrete application may increase or decrease the list of the necessary components.

The considered system assigned for operation at the ground vehicle consists of the apparatus of measurement

w=

or

and observation as the stabilization plant, direct current motor and gyro device as the measuring system. The signal from the controller enters to the motor through the power-width-modulator forming the set of pulses, the width of which is determined by the controller signal [14]. Stabilization of the platform is carried out in the vertical and horizontal plane separately.

The basic features of the synthesized system mathematical description are the necessity to use the integrated model of the stabilization plant and motor due to the presence of the elastic connection between the motor and the platform, at which the apparatus is mounted; linearization of the power-width-modulator and dry friction moments [14].

Taking these assumptions into consideration it is possible to represent the system vector of the state variables in the following form

where x1 is the voltage at the gyro sensor output; x2 is the angle of turn of the platform with the observation equipment; x3 is the angle of turn of the motor shaft; x4 is the voltage entering to the width-pulse-modulator; x5 is the derivative of the voltage at the gyro sensor output; x6 is the angular rate of the platform with the observation equipment; x7 is the angular rate of the motor shaft.

Then the state space model of the system for stabilization of the platform with the apparatus operated at the ground vehicles may be defined by the following set of equations

1he important step of the robust two-degree-of-freedom structural synthesis is the choice of the reference model. 1he simplest model may be represented by the transfer function k / 1s +1. It should be noticed that the choice of the reference model is defined by the requirements to the transient response. 1his process is not simple and ambiguous and requires the heuristic approaches.

The representation of the reference model in the state space looks like

Ar = [0,1;-1/T, -2X/T],

Br = [0;1],

Cr = [1,0], Dr = 0.

The choice of the transfer functions of the pre- and post-compensators is of great importance for the solved problem too. Using the generally accepted recommendations the post-compensator may be described by the single gain W2 = 1. The transfer function of the pre-compensator W1

may be defined in the following way. In the first place, it is necessary to take into account the transfer function, which describes the amplifier by the voltage. In the second place, the pre-compensator gain must be equal to the ratio of the gains of the transfer functions by the disturbance and by the plant. A feature of the HM -synthesis procedure for the researched system is the necessity to carry out the minimal realization of the plant G. After this step execution the augmented plant may be defined taking into consideration the experimentally determined transfer functions of the pre- and post-compensators

5. Results of design of the two-degree-of-freedom stabilization system including mathematical representation of the obtained controller and modeling

After maximum possible reduction of the obtained controller (from 10th order to 7th respectively) the structure of the controller may be described by the following quadruple in the state space

1he controller for the robust two-degree-of-freedom stabilization and tracking system operated at the ground vehicles was designed and represented by means of quadruple matrices in the state space.

Represented results of the synthesized system modeling prove the possibility of fulfillment of the rigid requirements to accuracy performances to the system for stabilization of the platform with the observation equipment mounted at the ground vehicles and functioned in the difficult conditions of real operation under the action of the coordinate disturbances and parametrical changes in the wide range.

6. Discussing the possibility of creation of the system able to function in difficult conditions of real operation at ground vehicles

The synthesized robust controller requires the application of the reduction procedure. This will make easier its practical implementation.

The synthesized system is characterized by norms H2 = 0,526 and HM = 0,258 respectively. Such values prove

the possibility to achieve a compromise between the system accuracy and robustness.

The modeling results of the stabilization system in the tracking mode prove the possibility to use the platform with installed payload by its application in difficult conditions of real operations. The system satisfied the requirements given to accuracy in conditions of the significant coordinate disturbances:

- ±50 % for the friction moment, Fig. 5, a;

- ±50 % for unbalance moment, Fig. 5, b;

- operation in conditions of the road with long undulations;

- operation in conditions of the terrain with hummocks.

Simulation results also prove the execution of requirements to the speed of operation and overshoots, which are given to the transient responses of the researched systems. It should be noted, that these parameters are of great importance for the stabilized platforms with observation equipment operated at the ground vehicles.

The results of the synthesized system modeling represented in Fig. 6 prove the possibility of the system to operate in conditions of the parametrical disturbances. Such parameters as the inertia moment and rigidity of

the elastic connections between the actuator and moving platform were changed in the wide range. Fig. 6 shows the results of modeling of the nominal and parametrically disturbed systems (±150 %) by each of the above mentioned parameters.

Comparison of the results obtained for the horizontal and vertical channels respectively shows, that the system of the vertical channel is characterized by the larger rigidity. Such situation corresponds to real system operation.

7. Conclusions

As a result of the carried out researches the following results were obtained.

1. The space state model of the system for stabilization of the platform with the payload (observation equipment) operated at the ground vehicles was obtained.

2. The HM -synthesis procedure for the researched system design was developed using the loop shaping method by means of the pre- and post-compensators. The appropriate weighting transfer functions were determined.

3. The augmented plant model in the state space was derived in the form adapted to the standard HM -synthesis problem statement. This allows using the developed software in the MatLab system for the robust controller design.

4. The optimization functional of the HM -synthesis procedure taking into consideration the sensitivity functions by the coordinate disturbance and measurement noise was obtained.

5. Functioning of the synthesized controller was checked and the modeling results were obtained. Analysis of these results proves the possibility to ensure the high accuracy of the observation equipment on a moving base in difficult conditions of the ground vehicle operation.
