What is Controls?
What Is Controls?

K P
n
y
Controller Plant
• Design K s.t. closed loop system exhibits
stability and high performance. (Want y = r)
- P : Physical System/Process to be Controlled
- K : System to be Designed
actual output
desired output
controlerror
sensor noise
disturbances
Example: Vehicle Cruise Control
• P - Vehicle
• r - Speed reference command (desired speed)
• y - Actual speed
• u - Fuel flow to engine
• K - Controller
– Want y = r– Actual speed to follow speed commands
Issues• Nonlinear Dynamics
– Ordinary/partial differential equations– Saturating actuators (hard control limits); Rate limits
• Noninvertible Dynamics– Instabilities (unbounded solutions, characteristic roots in open right half plane)– Time delays and other lag effects
• Uncertainty – only nominal models are available– Dynamic
• Actuator and sensor dynamics• High frequency parasitics
– Structural modes (e.g. flexible spacecraft); Time delays (e.g. CVD furnace)
– Parametric: Masses, aerodynamic coefficients, friction coefficients, etc.– Stochastic Disturbances and Sensor Noise
• Amplitude, mean, variance, and spectral content
• Digital Implementation Issues– Sampling and actuation rates– Analog-to-digital and Digital-to-analog - speed, resolution,
quantization/reconstruction error– Measurement noise, time delays (phase lag), and nonlinearities
Research: Need Systematic Control System Design Methodology
• Modeling, Simulation, Analysis
- Determination of Realistic Design Specifications
• Design Control System (via Model-Based Optimization)
- typically on the basis of linearized models
- gain scheduling (“glue” control design together)
• Evaluate design using hi-fidelity simulator
• Design Implementation (Rapid prototyping)
- computer, microprocessor, DSP, FPGAs
• Hardware Evaluation
NOTE: Control system design process is highly iterative!

EXTRA SLIDES
Result 1 • Problem Solved
– Given an plant P (possibly infinite-dimensional) described by a linear time invariant (LTI) model, how can we approximate it by a finite-dimensional model Pn to ensure that the resulting optimization-based control design Kn stabilizes P and meets an apriori performance tolerance?
• Solution based on convexification of the problem; can exploit convex optimization (e.g. polynomial-time interior point algorithms)
• Applications: Semiconductor processes, flexible structures, aerospace
Result 2
• Problem Solved
– Given a controller K which offers acceptable global performance for external commands, disturbances, and sensor noise, how can we modify it to accommodate actuator control limits and other hard limits?
• Solution exploits ideas from the theory of non-differentiable Lyapunov functions
