Model set determination and its application to the control of compact disc players (Q1267253)

The paper deals with the problem of obtaining a plant nominal model and its error uncertainty bound when a batch of plant models is provided. Previous results have been extended to the case in which the plant model is described by a homographic transformation. A necessary and sufficient condition is obtained for a nominal model to be suboptimal. An algorithm is proposed to obtain a nominal model which is suboptimal and has a low complexity. This algorithm has been applied to the simultaneous spiral control of two compact disc players.
