Abstract :
In this paper, a systematic framework for optimised sensor configurations is implemented via Hinfin loop shaping procedure. The optimisation framework, gives the sensor sets that satisfy predefined user criteria and the preset constraints required for the MAGnetic LEVitated suspension performance via evolutionary algorithms. The scheme is assessed via appropriate simulations for its efficacy.
