Coupling Between the Modeling and Controller-Design Problems—Part I: Analysis

From MaRDI portal
Publication:4388533





A quantification of the coupling between modelling and controller-design problems is proposed. The measure is based on the size of the set of models which yield controllers that meet the desired robust performance objectives. A theorem stating that the coupling increases as the performance specifications are tightened or as the uncertainty is increased is proved. A simple example supports the observation that the best model for controller design is not necessarily the most accurate open-loop model obtained from input-output data through identification. The significance of coupling motivates the new, simultaneous approach to modelling and controller-design formulated in the companion paper, part II [ibid. 119, No. 2, 278-283 (1997)].
