Abstract:
This paper proposes the adaptive extended state observer (AESO)-based active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) to deal with the uncertainties, both in the plant and in the sensors. The gain of ESO is automatically timely tuned to reduce the estimation errors of both states and “total disturbance” against the measurement noise. Furthermore, the satisfactory performance of the closed-loop system is achieved by compensation for uncertainties. This novel controller is applied to the air-fuel ratio (AFR) control of gasoline engine, which has large nonlinear uncertainties due to the unknown speed change, fuel film dynamics, etc. In addition, the measurement of AFR is polluted by sensor noise. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed controller can ensure high deviation precision of AFR despite both uncertain dynamics and measurement noise. Moreover, the experimental comparison validates the effectiveness of the AESO's gain by which the performance of ADRC on mitigating uncertainties can be improved.
