Abstract: | A new design technique for multivariable feedback systems is presented. In this approach, n —1 open-loop transfer functions at different inputs of the plant, with all other feedback paths closed, are specified in advance, and are achieved exactly. The nth open-loop transfer function is a by-product of the design process, such that the overall feedback system is stabilized. The design approach is fitted to solve problems in which the plant elements can have non-stable poles and non-minimum phase zeros. The design process is straightforward, no iterations are necessary, and the achieved design copes exactly with the design specifications. The gainbandwidths of the different lis and the overall loop gain l* might be constrained due to non-stable poles and zeros of the plant elements. Based on the obtained different loop gains, any input output matrix T can bo achieved with the aid of an appropriate prefilter matrix F. |
