In this paper, the robust controllers are synthesized using μ approach for levitation system of electromagnetic Maglev vehicle and active suspension system of super conducting Maglev vehicle. The numerical simulations for different parameter perturbations and different disturbances are accomplished, and a comparison of μ control and H ∞ control is performed. The simulation results show that, both H ∞ control and μ control for two kinds of Maglev vehicles exhibit good stability robustness to plant model uncertainty, but μ control exhibits better performance robustness than H ∞ control, therefore better ride quality could be obtained by μ control.展开更多
