ANALYSIS AND SYNTHESIS OF AUTOMATIC CONTROL SYSTEMS,
Abstract
The present paper reviews the results of many previous investigations and develops a new theory and methodology for the analysis and synthesis of linear continuous control systems. The principles and methods proposed in this paper are not only applicable to the single-variable systems of feedback control and regulation, but also valid for the multivariable control systems of higher complexity. Matrices, the most appropriate mathematical tool for description of multivariable control process is used to discuss the problem of synthesis in control systems having several external disturbances (loads). The concept of the transfer sequence of a variable, derived from the transfer function of the variable by means of series is developed. A detailed discussion on the calculation and assessment of the quality criteria for the responses of individual controlled variables is given. Finally, I. L. Chebyshev's concept of the best uniform approximation is used to devise an extremely simple and effective method of synthesizing optimum transfer functions for a number of variables.
