Abstract

Abstract A novel method for designing Kalman Predictor (KP) based multivariable self-tuning controllers for Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) systems has been proposed, and also applied to the control of two distillation columns. The objective is to maintain constant terminal compositions despite disturbances entering the system even when the controlled variables are not measured at the same sampling rate. The KP generates minimum variance estimates of the output variables. Simulation results show that KP based multirate multivariable self-tuning controller exhibits better performance than the earlier reported multirate controller for set point tracking, even in the presence of nonstationary disturbances. KP based self-tuning controller is, therefore, suitable for industrial applications.
