✦ Synopsis


Preview control with an estimation scheme is investigated for an active vehicle suspension system with look-ahead sensors. Design of a preview compensator that may be called stochastic optimal, output feedback, preview regulator problem is reduced to the classical linear quadratic Gaussian problem by augmenting dynamics of the original system and previewed road inputs. The resulting solution is a combination of deterministic optimal preview controller and stochastic optimal estimator. The optimal estimator takes the form of a Kalman filter with an additional term of the estimate for the road input, which is given as the weighted preview sensor signal. The Kalman filter gain and the weight used for estimating state and road input, respectively, are designed so that performance degradation by measurement noise is minimized. Numerical examples of a quarter car model are given to verify the performance improvement achievable with the proposed preview control when the estimation from noisy measurement is considered.

The design of an active noise control system involves several steps. One of the most important is to find the best locations of the control sources and error sensors according to the primary source distribution and its spectrum. Thus the first step in this optimization problem is to obtain an analyt

A semi-active on-off control policy has been developed to reduce the severity of suspension seat end-stop impacts caused by shocks or high magnitude vibration. An electrorheological fluid damper was used to realize the required two-state damping. The effects of the free travel (i.e., the relative di
