Robust H∞ Control of Neutral System with Time-Delay for Dynamic Positioning Ships

Due to the input time-delay existing in most thrust systems of the ships, the robust H∞ controller is designed for the ship dynamic positioning (DP) system with time-delay. The input delay system is turned to a neutral time-delay system by a state-derivative control law. The less conservative result...
