Robust and ultrafast response compensator for unstable invertible plants
Automatica2015
Quasi-linear feedback theory (Kelemen, 2002; Kelemen and Bensoussan, 2004) enabled simultaneously improving time performance and frequency performance of feedback systems, by using compensators whose poles are gain dependent. Although simulation results show theoretical improvements, the gain magnitude of quasi-linear compensators is prohibitive.
On the design, robustness, implementation and use of quasi-linear feedback compensators
International Journal of Control2004
A quasi-linear feedback compensator is one in which its poles depend in an appropriate way on its gain. The reason for introducing this new concept was the desire to remove the limitation to performance imposed by a plant with more than one pole in excess of its zeros. In this article it is shown that this objective is realized for plants with zeros in the left half of the complex plane.
