We report on the installation of fast polarizers for ECRH injection and ECE diagnostics, in the TCV tokamak. The main goal is to change the polarization during a plasma shot and react to changing conditions such as: plasma current and position, ECRH inject ...
In this thesis, a new framework to design controllers in the frequency domain is proposed. The method is based on the shaping of the open-loop transfer function in the Nyquist diagram. A line representing a lower approximation for the crossover frequency a ...
All H infinity controllers of a SISO LTI system are parameterized thanks to the relation between the Bounded Real Lemma and the Positive Real Lemma. This new parameterization shares the features of Youla parameterization, namely the convexity of H infinity ...
Feedback loops are major components of biochemical systems. Many systems show multiple such (positive or negative) feedback loops. Nevertheless, very few quantitative analyses address the question how such multiple feedback loops evolved. Based on publishe ...
Some frequency-domain controller design problems are solved using a finite number of frequency samples. Consequently, the performance and stability conditions are not guaranteed for the frequencies between the frequency samples. In this paper, all possible ...

In most of applications, power converters are controlled to allow their output current/voltage to follow the required reference values. For DC/DC and DC/AC converters, the control must take into account their input voltage, which must be rejected. In such ...
In this paper we use bilevel programming to find the maximum difference between a reference controller and a low-complexity controller in terms of the infinity-norm difference of their control laws. A nominal MPC for linear systems with constraints, and a ...
The polarization of ECRH waves, set by the orientation of a pair of corrugated mirror polarizers in the transmission line, determines the degree of coupling to O- and X-modes in the plasma and has an important effect on the first-pass absorption. Existing ...
This paper proposes a data-driven test for closed-loop stability. The test is based on a non-conservative stability condition that can be verified without having to actually implement the controller. It uses a set of measurements from the plant but does not ...
