As new broadband networks based on the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) protocol emerge to support a variety of services, the need for analytical models and tools for sizing network components carrying mixtures of different kinds of traffic will be increasingly felt. This paper presents a simple, yet efficient algorithm for sizing trunks carrying mixtures of constant and variable bit rate traffic. It combines theoretical results for the multi-dimensional Erlang model and the concept of equivalent bandwidth with some heuristic arguments to produce an analytic method for sizing trunks subject to blocking and quality of service constraints for traffic classes.

We deal with the design of robust controllers for a linear time invariant uncertain system exhibiting two time scale properties for the entire range of parameter variations. The uncertain system has been decomposed into slow and fast uncertain subsystems. The stabilizing controllers for the lower order subsystems are designed and a composite controller is obtained from them. This composite controller is shown to stabilize the higher order uncertain system, if applied to it. A numerical example illustrates the procedure.< >

In this paper, multivariable quantitative feedback theory (QFT) techniques are used to synthesize a robust feedback system for an extractive distillation column with a vaporous sidestream. The simplified state space model of Gilles and Retzbach (1983) for an extractive distillation column exhibiting sharp temperature profiles is adopted here. Large uncertainty of +20% is assumed in three key matrix elements of this model. The feedback design problem is to find the controller and prefilter matrices such that the stated tracking specifications are met, over the entire range of model parametric uncertainty. The fourth MIMO QFT technique of Yaniv and Horowitz (1986) is used to solve the design problem. The design is verified through extensive simulations in both frequency and time domains, for several plants picked from the plant uncertainty set. In all cases, the results obtained are quite satisfactory.< >

We present QFT IIT, a MATLAB toolbox for quantitative feedback theory (QFT)-based synthesis of robust feedback systems. QFT IIT can handle several system classes including linear and nonlinear, single input-output and multi input-output, output and internal variable feedback, and linear distributed with distributed or point feedback types. We used QFT IIT to successfully solve a large number of robust control problems at The indianinstitute of technology (IIT) bombay.< >

This paper investigates the feasibility of an H/sub /spl infin// controller for a large flexible structure with the actuator and sensor are located at the same spatial point. The controller is required to provide good disturbance rejection as well as prove robust to unmodelled dynamics of the system. Incorporating the dynamics of the actuator and modeling the structure as an eighth order linear model, a discrete time controller is synthesized with constraints on the control magnitude. Using suitable reduction techniques, the controller order is reduced to facilitate implementation.< >

In this paper, a robust multivariable two matrix degree of freedom feedback structure is designed for an evaporator example. The evaporator is described by a 2/spl times/2 transfer matrix having uncertain time-delays and gains. The desired tracking properties of the closed loop system are a priori given, and these are to be achieved despite the large parametric uncertainty. The third MIMO quantitative feedback technique (QFT) of Horowitz is used for the design. The obtained results are verified in both frequency and time domains through simulations, and found to be acceptable over the range of uncertainty considered.< >

Variable structure control (VSC) with sliding mode is a special type of control technique that is capable of making a control system very robust with respect to system parameter variations and external disturbances. Because of the robustness property, easy and decoupled design technique VSC finds important applications in control of flexible manipulators. Here, VSC application to a flexible one-link manipulator and a two link manipulator with last link flexible are considered. Simulation results are obtained to evaluate the performance of the controllers. Simulation results show that variable structure control with sliding mode can provide effective control of flexible manipulators.< >

The role of satellite communications in networks that provide new services, such as frame relay and multimedia, is investigated. Both passive and active (on-board switching/processing) satellite systems are considered. Novel techniques are developed for each system to demonstrate, via detailed analysis and simulation, how the communications bandwidth agility of multipoint/broadcast satellite channels, and the on-board switching/processing, makes it feasible to provide these new services via hybrid satellite and terrestrial networks in a resource-efficient manner.
