Linear Model Descriptions

The Control System Professional currently provides

several ways of describing linear system models; e.g.

1 For systems described by the state-space equations

DuCxy

BuAxx

where y is a vector of the system outputs

u is a vector of the system inputs

and x is a vector of the system state-variables

2 For systems described by transfer-function relationships

)s(u)s(G)s(y

where s is the complex variable

Examples: -

ss = StateSpace[{{0, 0, 1, 0},{0, 0, 0, 1},

{-(a b), 0, a+b, 0},{0, -(a b), 0, a+b}},

{{0, 0},{0, 0},{1, 0},{0, 1}},{{-b, -a, 1, 1}}]

New Data Formats have been implemented, for these objects, which are fully editable, as follows: -

ss = StateSpace[{{0, 0, 1, 0},{0, 0, 0, 1},

{-(a b), 0, a+b, 0},{0, -(a b), 0, a+b}},

{{0, 0},{0, 0},{1, 0},{0, 1}},{{-b, -a, 1, 1}}]

now results in the composite data matrix

New Data Objects

Four new data objects have been introduced; namely,

1. Rosenbrock’s system matrix in polynomial form

2. Rosenbrock’s system matrix in state-space form

3. The right matrix-fraction description of a system

4. The left matrix-fraction description of a system.

u)s(W)s(Vy

u)s(U)s(T

The system matrix in polynomial form provides a compact description of a linear dynamical system described by arbitrary ordered differential equations and algebraic relationships, after the application of the Laplace transform with zero initial conditions; namely

where , u and y are vectors of the Laplace transformed system variables. This set of equations can equally be written as

y

0

u)s(W)s(V

)s(U)s(T

If the system description is known in state-space form then a special form of the system matrix can be constructed, known as the system matrix in state-space form, as shown below

DC

BAsI)s(P

The system matrix in polynomial form is then defined as

)s(W)s(V

)s(U)s(T)s(P

When a system matrix in polynomial form is being created, it is important to note that the dimension of the square matrix T(s) must be adjusted to be r, where r is the degree of Det[T(s)].

Matrix Fraction Forms

Given a system description in transfer function matrix form G(s), for certain analysis and design purposes; e.g. the H- approach to robust control system design; it is often convenient to express this model in the form of a left or right matrix-fraction description; e.g.

1. A left matrix-fraction form of a given transfer function matrix G(s) might be

2 A right matrix fraction form of a given transfer function matrix G(s) might be

New Data Transformations

A Least-Order form of a System-Matrix in polynomial form is one in which there are no input-decoupling zeros and no output-decoupling zeros, and would yield a minimal state-space realization, when directly converted to state-space form.

For example, the polynomial system matrix

Controllability and Observability

In the same way that the controllability and observability of a system described by a set of state space equations can be determined in the Control System Professional by entering the commands

Controllable[ss] and Observable[ss]

where ss is a StateSpace object.

These tests can now also be directly applied to a system matrix object by entering the commands

Controllable[sm] and Observable[sm]

where sm is a SystemMatrix object in either polynomial form or state space form.

Preliminary Analysis

• Reduction of State-Space Equations

• Given a system matrix in state-space form

• then an input-decoupling zeros algorithm,

• implemented in Mathematica, reduces P(s) to

The original 25th order system is numerically very ill conditioned. The eigenvalues cover a significant range in the complex plane, ranging from -0.00033 to -33.1252.The condition number is 5.24 x 1019.At = 0 the maximum and minimum singular values are 147500 and 50, respectively.The Kalman controllability and observability tests yield a rank of 1, and the controllability and observability gramians are :-

Smith and McMillan Forms

The Smith form of a polynomial matrix and the McMillan form of a rational polynomial matrix are both important in control systems analysis.

Consider an x m polynomial matrix N(s), then the Smith form of N(s) is defined as

S(s) = L(s)N(s)R(s)

)}s({diag)s(S

m,)}s({diag)s(S

and L(s) and R(s) are unimodular matrices.

Smith and McMillan Forms

Consider now an x m rational polynomial matrix G(s), and let

G(s) = N(s)/d(s)

where d(s) is the monic least common denominator of G(s), then the McMillan form of G(s) is defined as

Combined Sequential Loop Closing and Diagonal Dominance Method

Combined Sequential Loop Closing and Diagonal Dominance Method

• This approach is a new combination of Bryant’s

Sequential Loop Closing Approach with MacFarlane

and Kouvaritakis’ ALIGN Algorithm, Edmunds’

Scaling and Normalization Technique, and

Rosenbrock’s Diagonal Dominance.

• It is particularly appropriate in cases where a simple

controller structure is desired.

• Advantages:

– It can be implemented by closing one loop at a

time.

– Usually, the resulting control scheme is quite

simple and can be easily realized in practice.

Achieving Diagonal DominanceAchieving Diagonal Dominance

• Normalization :

– Generates the input-output scaling to be applied to the

system in order to minimize interaction.

– Determines the best input-output pairing for control

purposes.

– Produces good diagonal dominance properties at low and

intermediate frequencies.

– Results are obtained by using simple, wholly real

permutation matrices.

• High frequency decoupling :

– Aims at improving the transient response of the system.

– Emphasis is on frequencies close to the bandwidth,

around which interaction is most severe.

– Results are obtained by making use of wholly real

matrices.

Preliminary AnalysisPreliminary Analysis

The original 25th order system is numerically very ill conditioned. The eigenvalues cover a significant range in the complex plane, ranging from -0.00033 to -33.1252.The condition number is 5.24 x 1019.At = 0 the maximum and minimum singular values are 147500 and 50, respectively.The Kalman controllability and observability tests yield a rank of 1, and the controllability and observability gramians are :-
