Observer-based deadbeat controllers: A polynomial design
The paper presents a novel description of the interplay between the windup phenomenon and directional change in controls for multivariable systems (including plants with an uneven number of inputs and outputs), usually omitted in the literature. The paper also proposes a new classification of anti-windup compensators with respect to the method of generating the constrained control signal.
In this paper linear difference equations with several independent variables are considered, whose solutions are functions defined on sets of -dimensional vectors with integer coordinates. These equations could be called partial difference equations. Existence and uniqueness theorems for these equations are formulated and proved, and interconnections of such results with the theory of linear multidimensional digital systems are investigated. Numerous examples show essential differences of the results...
This note proposes a quite general mathematical proposition which can be a starting point to prove many well-known results encountered while studying the theory of linear systems through matrix inequalities, including the S-procedure, the projection lemma and few others. Moreover, the problem of robustness with respect to several parameter uncertainties is revisited owing to this new theorem, leading to LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality)-based conditions for robust stability or performance analysis...
System similarity and system strict equivalence concepts from Rosenbrock's theory on linear systems are used to establish algebraic conditions of model matching as well as an algebraic method for design of centralized compensators. The ideas seem to be extensible without difficulty to a class of decentralized control.
Iterative learning control (ILC) develops controllers that iteratively adjust the command to a feedback control system in order to converge to zero tracking error following a specific desired trajectory. Unlike optimal control and other control methods, the iterations are made using the real world in place of a computer model. If desired, the learning process can be conducted both in the time domain during each iteration and in repetitions, making ILC a 2D system. Because ILC iterates with the real...
This paper deals with the local (around the equilibrium) optimal decentralized control of autonomous multivariable systems of nonlinearities and couplings between subsystems which can be expressed as power series in the state-space are allowed in the formulation. They only affect for the optimal performance integrals in cubic and higher terms in the norm of the initial conditions of the dynamical differential system. The basic hypothesis which is made is that the system is centrally-stabilizable...
Necessary conditions for some optimal control problem for a nonlinear 2-D system are considered. These conditions can be obtained in the form of a quasimaximum principle.
