High performance output tracking can be achieved by precompensator or feedforward controllers based on the inverse of either the closed-loop system or the plant model, respectively. However, it has been shown that these inverse controllers can adversely af ...
A quadratic programming approach is proposed to tune fixed-order linearly parameterized controllers for stable LTI plants represented by spectral models. The method is based on the shaping of the open-loop or closed-loop frequency functions in the Nyquist ...
This paper presents a PID controller design method for stable minimum- phase systems. The approach is similar to the one proposed in the so-called modified Ziegler- Nichols method, where only one point on the frequency response of the plant is measured and ...
A double-stage feedback control structure for a double-stage mechanical system, with a single optical metrology is developed to reach the nanometer accuracy at high bandwidth over large displacements. A piezoelectric stack actuator is used for fine positio ...
