The design problem of a static output feedback controller and multivariable proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is investigated for linear time-invariant systems (LTI). First, the static output feedback stabilization problem is taken into consideration and then an iterative linear matrix inequality (ILMI) algorithm is developed for the synthesis of the controller. Second, choosing...

This paper presents a robust controller design methodology for a class of linear uncertain multivariable systems with hard time-domain constraints on their outputs and control signals in response to step disturbance inputs. In this approach, the m×m MIMO system is replaced by m2 SISO systems and then, using the QFT technique, desirable controllers are synthesized. The final controller will be d...

This paper proposes an Intelligent Linear Parameter Varying (ILPV) control approach for multivariable discrete Linear Time Varying (LTV) systems. An optimal linear quadratic closed loop control law is developed for each identified multivariable model so that the controlled system tracks a desired trajectory over the entire time interval. A gain scheduling adaptive control scheme based on neural...

Batch and continuous systems are of multivariable in nature. A multivariable system is one in which one input not only affects its own outputs but also one or more other outputs in the plant. Multivariable processes are difficult to control due to the presence of the interactions. Increase in complexity and interactions between inputs and outputs yield degraded process behavior. Such processes ...
