Abstract
A typical multivariable control problem requires the design of dynamic compensation to guarantee the following desirable behavior of the closed loop system.
-
1.
Each of an assigned set of output variables converges to, or tracks, a corresponding observed reference input from a specified function class. This is the servo problem.
-
2.
Each of an assigned set of output variables converges to zero from arbi-trary initial values, when the system is perturbed by possibly nonmeasur-able disturbances in a specified function class. This is the regulator problem; the convergent variables are said to be regulated; and zero represents the desired or set-point value.
