Every physical actuator is subject to saturation. When the actuator
saturates, the performance of the control system designed will
seriously deteriorate. Currently there is a surge of interest in
increasing the practical applicability of control theory by
incorporating the effect of saturation into the design of a control
system.
Control Systems with Actuator Saturation: Analysis and Design
examines the problem of actuator saturation in depth. The overall
approach takes into account the saturation nonlinearities at the
outset of the control design. In the case that a control law is
designed a priori to meet either the performance or stability
requirement, it analyzes the closed-loop system under actuator
saturation systematically and redesigns the controller in such a
way that the preformance is retained while stability is improved.
It also presents some related results on systems with state
saturation or sensor saturation.
Features and topics:
* Results apply to general open-loop systems, including
exponentially unstable ones. Thus, they are widely applicable to
practical systems
* Problems such as controllability, stabilizability, transience
performance, distribute rejection, and output regulation are
treated in a systematic manner.
* Analytic description of the null controllable region is first
obtained. Various feedback laws are designed that work on the
entire null controllable region or an arbitrarily large portion of
it.
* Analysis tools are developed for performance assessment of
existing control systems under actuator saturation.
* Examples are worked out in detail to demonstrate the usefulness
of the results.
This book is an excellent resource forprofessionals,
researchers, practitioners and graduate students in control,
electrical, and mechanical engineering. All scientists and
engineers interested in control systems with actuator saturation
will find this book an essential resource. Some first--year
graduate courses in linear systems and multivariable control or
some background in nonlinear control systems would greatly
facilitate the reading of this book.
