  • Patent number: 7142930
    Abstract: A disturbance estimated-type control system has a control object based on a mathematical model having of one of a state equation and a transfer function and prepared by system identification technology. A disturbance estimating device is based on an expansion system based on the mathematical model for estimating a disturbance of the control object in accordance with an input signal inputted into the control object and a detection signal detected from the control object. A compensating device is based on the mathematical model for compensating for a deviation between the detection signal and a target value and for outputting a corresponding control signal. A subtractor subtracts the control signal of the compensating device from a disturbance estimated value of the disturbance estimating device.

  • Publication number: 20020128730
    Abstract: A disturbance estimated type control system and a gas compressor control system that are insensitive to a parameter variation such as a heat load variation and a rotating speed change and a method of designing a disturbance estimated type control system are provided. A disturbance is applied to a control object. An input signal and an output signal are inputted in an observer and a disturbance is estimated. A deviation between the output signal and a target value is calculated by a subtractor. This deviation is subject to compensations by a compensator and outputted as a control signal. This control signal is subtracted from a disturbance estimated value from the observer by a subtractor. Therefore, the disturbance estimated value among estimated values of the observer is fed back so as to cancel an actual disturbance.
