  • Abstract

    Due to the interaction between discrete on-off controls and continuous environmental factors, greenhouse temperature control systems can be regarded as a class of hybrid system. Most previous greenhouse control algorithms rely on an exquisite system model and classical or modern control theories, and fail to consider the actual conditions of greenhouses in China in their design of a controller and their system anaysis does not include the hybrid properties of the greenhouse. Based directly on the hybrid automata theory, a hybrid controller was designed for controlling the temperatures of experimental greenhouse in summer. The controller was shown to be non-blocking and deterministic in hybrid automata theory framework. Experiments were performed in the spring and summer of 2014, and the controller behaved reasonably and timely when events triggered state transitions. Further more, a controller framework containing two typical hybrid controller modes was established for winter and summer to meet the needs of continuous control all year round. And the referential time points for mode transitions were obtained by analyzing daily lowest temperaturs from 2013 to 2014.
