Download or read book Design of Delay-Based Controllers for Linear Time-Invariant Systems written by Adrián Ramírez and published by SIAM. This book was released on with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the mathematical foundations needed for designing practical controllers for linear time-invariant systems. The authors accomplish this by incorporating intentional time delays into measurements with the goal of achieving anticipation capabilities, reduction in noise sensitivity, and a fast response. The benefits of these types of delay-based controllers have long been recognized, but designing them based on an analytical approach became possible only recently. Design of Delay-Based Controllers for Linear Time-Invariant Systems provides a thorough survey of the field and the details of the analytical approaches needed to design delay-based controllers. In addition, readers will find accessible mathematical tools and self-contained proofs for rigorous analysis, numerous examples and comprehensive computational algorithms to motivate the results, and experiments on single-input single-output systems and multi-agent systems using real-world control applications to illustrate the benefits of intentionally inducing delays in control loops. This book is intended for control engineers in various disciplines, including electrical, mechanical, and mechatronics engineering. It offers valuable insights for graduate students, researchers, and professionals working in industry.
