EKF-Based Enhanced Performance Controller Design for Nonlinear Stochastic Systems

Abstract

In this paper, a novel control algorithm is presented to enhance the performance of tracking property for a class of non-linear dynamic stochastic systems with unmeasurable variables. To minimize the entropy of tracking errors without changing the existing closed loop with PI controller, the enhanced performance loop is constructed based on the state estimation by extended Kalman Filter and the new controller is designed by full state feedback following this presented control algorithm. Besides, the conditions are obtained for the stability analysis in the mean square sense. In the end, the comparative simulation results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of proposed control algorithm.
