چکیده

This paper proposes a new method for obtaining a linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) benchmark in terms of the variances of process input and output from closed-loop data, for assessing the controller performance. LQG benchmark has been proposed in the literature to assess controller performance since the LQG tradeoff curve represents the limit of performance in terms of input and output variances. However, an explicit parametric model is required to calculate the LQG benchmark. In this work, we propose a data driven subspace approach to calculate the LQG benchmark under closed-loop conditions with certain external excitations. The optimal LQG-benchmark variances are obtained directly from the subspace matrices corresponding to the deterministic inputs and the stochastic inputs, which are identified using closed-loop data with setpoint excitation. These variances are used for assessing the controller performance. The method proposed in this paper is applicable to both univariate and multivariate systems. Profit analysis for the implementation of feedforward control to the existing feedback-only control system is also analyzed under the optimal LQG performance framework. The proposed method is illustrated through a simulation example and an application on a pilot scale process.

Antenna Lqg Controllers: Properties, Limits of Performance, and Tuning Procedure

The LQG controllers significantly improve antenna tracking precision, but their tuning is a trial-and-error process. A control engineer has two tools to tune an LQG controller: the choice of coordinate system of the controller, and the selection of weights of the LQG performance index. The paper selects the coordinates of the open-loop model that simplify the shaping of the closed-loop performa...

Identiication for Control : Closing the Loop Gives More Accurate Controllers

We compare open loop versus closed loop identiication when the identiied model is used for control design, and when the system itself belongs to the model class, so that only variance errors are relevant. For three diierent control design criteria (minimum variance, LQG and model reference control) we show that, under those conditions, a better performance is achieved by closing the loop during...

Data-Driven Two-Dimensional LQG Benchmark Based Performance Assessment for Batch Processes under ILC

A novel data-driven control performance assessment (CPA) method is proposed for batch processes controlled by iterative learning control (ILC) based on two-dimensional linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) benchmark. Previous studies on CPA for ILC are based on an assumption that the model of the controlled batch process is known, whereas this study proposes a model-free CPA method. Based on the two-...

LQG control over communication channels: the role of data losses, delays and SNR limitations

In this work we address the problem feedback control design in the presence of a communication channel, which gives rise to tightly coupled limitations in terms of quantization errors, decoding/computational delays and packet loss affecting the closed loop control performance. We restrict our analysis in the context of LQG control subject to SNR limitations, packet loss, and delay, and we deriv...
