Abstract: | The optimal multirate design of linear, continuous-time, periodic and time-invariant systems is considered. It is based on solving the continuous linear quadratic regulation (LQR) problem with the control being constrained to a certain piecewise constant feedback. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of the resulting closed-loop system are given. An explicit multirate feedback law that requires the solution of an algebraic discrete Riccati equation is presented. Such control is simple and can be easily implemented by digital computers. When applied to linear time-invariant systems, multirate optimal feedback optimal control provides a satisfactory response even if the state is sampled relatively slowly. Compared to the classical single-rate sampled-data feedback in which the state is always sampled at the same rate, the multirate system can provide a better response with a considerable reduction in the optimal cost. In general, the multirate scheme offers more flexibility in choosing the sampling rates |
