Variable Gain Output Feedback Control of A Networked Temperature Control System Based on Online Delay Estimation

Abstract

In this paper, a gradient descent method based delay estimator is proposed for use with a variable gain control strategy for networked control systems. The delay estimator is developed in such a way that its boundedness is ensured. The performance of the estimator with variable gain controller is evaluated on a temperature control plant with network in the feedback loop. © 2017 Chinese Automatic Control Society and John Wiley & Sons Australia, Ltd
