Simultaneous pole assignment in linear periodic systems by constrained structure feedback

Abstract

The authors present methods for pole assignment by feedback with constrained structure in linear periodic systems using generalized sampled-data hold functions (GSHF). Constrained structure is taken to mean that the input of each channel is restricted to depend only on the measurements of some specific output channels. The basic idea of GSHF control is to use sample and hold, but to consider the hold function as a design parameter. Four strategies are proposed for closing a control loop using GSHF. The key to the results obtained is that, when GSHF control with constrained structure is applied to a periodic system, a discrete-time time-invariant, decentralized system is obtained for which control design methods are available. >
