State Variable Analysis and Design 1.1 Background The conventional approach used lo study the behaviour of linear time invariant control systems, uses the time domain or frequency domain methods. In all these methods, the systems are modelled using transfer function approach, which is the ratio of Laplace transform of output to input, neglecting all the initial conditions. Thus this conventional analysis faces all the limitations associated with the transfer function approach.

1.1.1 limitations of Conventional Approach Some> of its limitations can be stated as : 1) Naturally. significant initial conditions in obtaining precise solution of any system,

loose their importance in conventional approach. 2) 111e method is insufficient and troublesome lo give complete time domain solution

of higher order systems. 3) It is not very much convenient for the analysis of Multiple Input Multiple Output systems. 4) It gives analysis of system for some specific types of inputs like Step, Ramp etc. 5) II is only applicable to Linear Time Invariant Systems. 6) The classical methods like Root locus, Bode plot etc. arc basically trial and error procedures which foil lo give the optimal solution required. Hence it is absolutely necessary lo use a method of analysing systems which overcomes most of the above said difficulties. The modem method discussed in this chapter uses the concept of total internal slate of the system considering all initial conditions. This technique which uses the concept of state is called State Variable Analy»is or St•te Space Analysis. Koy Point: State variable analysis is c.<Scntially a time domain approach but it has 11m11ber of adva11/ages compared to co11Vt'nlio11al mrtliods of analysis.

1.1.2 Advantages of State Variable Analysis The various advantages of state variable analysis arc, 1) The method takes into account tl\C effect of all initial conditions. 2) It can be applied to nonlinear as well as time varying systems.

3) It can be conveniently applied to Multiple Input Multiple Output systems. 4) The system can be designed

for the optimal conditions precisely by using this

modem method. S) Any type of the input can be considered for designing the system. 6) As the method involves matrix algebra, can be conveniently adopted for the digital

computers. 7) The state variables selected need not necessarily be the physical quantities of the

system. 8) The vector matrix notation greatly simplifies the mathematical representation of the system.

1.2 Concept of State Consider a football match. The score in the football match must be updated at every instant from the knowledge and Information of the total score before that instant. nus procedure of updating the score continues till the end of the match when we get exact and precise score of the entire match. This updating procedure has main importance in the understating of the concept of state. Consider the network as shown in the Fig. 1.1 To find V0111, the knowledge of the initial capacitor voltage must be known. Only information about V1n will not be suffkknt to obtain precisely the V out at any time t ~ O. Such systems in which the output is not only dependent on the input but also on the initial conditions arc called the systems with memory or dynamic systems.

While if in the above network capadtor 'C' is replaced by another resistance 'R1' then output will be dependent only on the input applied Y'". Such systems in which the output of the system depends only on the input applied at t 0, arc called systems with zero mttnory or

i.e.

-b J f(t) dt

=

v(t0)

I

v(t)

v(t0)+

J f(t) dt 'o

From the above equation it is clear that for the same input f(t), we get the different values of the velocities v(t) depending upon our choice of parameter t0 and the value of v(t0). U v(t11) is known and the input vector from 't0' to 'I' is known then we can obtain a unique value of the output v(t) at any time t > t0• Key Point : Thus initial conditions i.e. memory affects the system c/1aracterisatim1 and subsequent behaviour. Thus initial conditions describe the status or state of the system at t = t 11• The state an be regarded as a compact a.nd concise representation of the past history of the system. So the state of the system in brief separates the future from the past so that U1e state contains all the information concerning the past history of the system necessarily required to determine the response of the system for any given type of input. The state of the system at any time 't' is actually the combined effect of the values of all the different elements of the system which arc associated with the initial conditions of the system. Thus the complete slate of the system can be considered to be a vector having components which are the variables of system which are:tlosely associated with

initial conditions. So stale can be defined as vedor X(I) called slate vector, This X(t) i.e. stale al any lime ·r is 'n' dimensional vector i.e. column matrix n x 1 as indicated below. X1(t) X2(t)

X(t)

Now these variables X t (t) , X2 (t) called the state wriablts of the system.

Xn (t} which constitute the state vector X(t) arc

If slate at t s t1 is to be decided then we must know X(t0) and knowledge of the input applied between t0 ~It. This new state will be X(t 1) which will act as initial state to find out the state at any time t > t 1• This is called the updating of the state. The output of the system at t = t 1 will be the function of X(t 1) and the instantaneous value of the input at t t 1, if any. The number of the state variables for a system is generally equal to the order of the system. The number of independent stale variables is normally equal to the number of energy storing elements (e.g.: capacitor voltage, current in inductor) contained in the system.

1.2.1 Important Definitions 1) State : The state of a dynamk system is defined as a minimal set of variables such that the knowledge of these variables at t = 10 together with the knowledge of the inputs fort :·t0. 2) State Variables : The variables involved in determining the state of a dynamic system X(t), arc called the state variables. X1(t), X2(t) ...... X"(t) are nothing but the state variables. These are normally the energy storing elements contained in the system.

31 State Vector : The 'n' state variables necessary to describe the complete behaviour of the system can be considered as 'n' components of a vector X(t) called the state vector at time · t', The state vector X(t) is the vector sum of all the state variables. 4) State Space : The space whose co-ordinate axes are nothing but the "n' state variables with time as the implicit variable is called the slate space. 5) State Trajectory : It is the locus of the tips of the state vectors, with time as the

Implicit variable.

1.4 State Diagram Representation It is the pictorial representation of the state model derived for the given system. It forms a close relationship amongst the state model, differential equations of the system and its solution. It is basically a block diagram type approach which is designed from the view of programming of a computer. The basic advantage of state diagram Is when it Is impossible to select the state variables as physical variables. When transfer function of system is given then slate diagram may be obtained first. And then by assigning mathematical state variables there in, standard state model can be obtained. State diagram of a linear lime invariant continuous system is discussed here for the sake of simplicity. It is a proper interconnection of three basic units. i) Scalars

State Space Representation 2.1 State Variable Representation using Physical Variables The state variables are minimum number of variables which arc associated with all the initial conditions of the system. As their sequence is not important, the state model of the system is not unique. But for all the state models it is necessary that the number of state variables is equal and minimal. This number 'n' indicates the order of the system. For second order system minimum two state variables arc necessary and so on. To obtain the state model for a given system, it is necessary to select the state variables. Many a times, the various physical quantities of system itself arc selected as the state variables. For the electrical systems, the currents through various inductors and the voltage across the various capacitors arc selected to be the state variables. Then by any method of network analysis, the equations must be written i'ntcrms of the selected state variables, their derivatives and the inputs. The equations must be rearranged in the standard form so as to obtain the required state model. Key Point: It is important ilia! Ilic equation for diffcre11tiatio11 of 011e state t•11riable s/1011/d 1101 i1100/vc tltt differmtiation of any otner slate variable. In the mechanical systems the displacements and velocities of energy storing elements such as spring and friction arc selected as the stale variables. In general, the physical variables associated with energy storing elements, which are responsible for initial conditions, arc selected as the stale variables of the given system. 1~

2.1.1 Advantages The advantages of using available physical variables as the state variables are, 1. The physical variables which are selected as the state variables are the physical quantities and can be measured. 2. As state variables can be physically measured, the feedback may consists the information about state variables in addition to the output variables. Thus design with state feedback is possible. 3. Once the state equations arc solved and solution is obtained, directly the behaviour of various physical variables with time is available. But the important limitation of this method is that obtaining solution of such state equation with state variables as physical variables is very difficult and lime consuming.

2.2 State Space Representation using Phase Variables Let us study how to obtain state space model using phase variables. The phase variables arc those state variables which are obtained by assuming one of the system variable as a state variable and other state variables are the derivatives of the selected system variable. Most of the time, the system variable used is the output variable which is used to select the state variable. Such set of phase variables is easily obtained if the differential equation of the system is known or the system transfer function is available.

U now the entire block shown in the Fig. 2.9 is added in the forward path of another minor loop with an integrator and feedback gain 'c', we get the transfer function as, = -1- where Y = sX + b sY ... c Thus the denominator of transfer function becomes s (sX + b) = [s (s (s + a) + b)l = s3 + as2 ... bs Thus denominator of any order can be directly programmed as discussed above.

s3 + as2 + bs + c => l[(s + a) s +b] s + c] s4 + as2 + bs2 +cs+ d=> I([ (s + a) s + bl s + c) s + d} and so on. Now if numerator is b1s ... b0 and denominator.

2.2.3 Advantages The various advantages of phase variables i.e. direct programming method arc, 1. Easy to implement.

2. The phase variables need not be physical variables hence mathematically powerful to obtain stale model. 3. It is easy to establish the link between the transfer function design and lime domain design using phase variables. 4. In many simple cases, just by inspection, the matrices A, ll, C and D can be obtained.

2.2.4 Limitations The various limitations of phase variables arc, 1. The phase variables arc not the physical variables hence they loose the practical

significance. They have mathematical importance. 2. The phase variables arc mathematical variables hence not available for the measurement point of view. 3. Also these variables are not available from control point of view. 4. The phase variables arc the output and its derivatives, if derivatives of input arc absent. But it is difficult to obtain second and higher derivatives of output. 5. The phase variable form, though special, does not offer any advantage from the mathematical analysis point of view. Due to all these disadvantages. canonical variables arc very popularly used to obtain the state model.

using Canonical Variables

This method of obtaining the slate model using the canonical variables is also called parallel programming method and matrix A obtained using this method is said to have canonical form, normal form or Foster's form. The matrix A in such a case is a diagonal matrix and plays an important role in the state space analysis. The method is basically based on Partial Fraction Expansion of the given transfer function Tis). Consider the transfer function T(s) as, bos"' +b,sm·t +b2srn·2+ ... +bm (s+a 1) (s+a2) .... (s+ a 0)

T(s) =

Case 1 : If the degree 'rn' is less than 'n' (m < n), then T(s) can be expressed using partial fraction expansion as,

The outputs of all such groups arc to be added to obtain the resultant output.

To add the outputs, all the groups must be connected in parallel with each other. The input U(s) to all of them is same. Hence the method is called parallel programming. The overall state diagram is shown in the Fig. 2.14.

2.3.1 Jordan's Canonical Form In the Foster's form it is assumed that the roots or denominator of T(s) are non-repeated, simple and distinct. But if the roots arc repeated then the parallel programming results matrix A in a form called Jordan's Canonical form.

Let TM has pole at s " - a1 which is repeated for r times as, T(s) =

N(s) (s+a1)'(s+a2) •.. (s+~,.)

The components of each power of -( . ) to s+a1 be added lo get output is to be taken from output of each integrator which arc connected in series. This is shown in the Fig. 2.17. Now assign state variables at the output of each integrator. For series i.ntegrators, assign the state v.oriablcs from right to left. as shown in the Fig. 2.17.

The matrix D is zero if m < n and is '<:o' if m = n. The matrix A in such a case has a Jordan block for the repeated factor and many times A is denoted as J. X(t) = JX(t) + BU(t) The matrix A

... For repeated roots

= J has the following features,

1. The principle diagonal consists of all the poles of transfer function with repeated pole 'r' times and other nonrepeated poles. 2. Upper off diagonal consists of (r - 1) times unity element, as indicated in the Jordan block. 3. All the remaining elements arc zero. Note that the matrix B has 'r - 1' zeros and all other clements as unity. The matrix C has all partial fraction coefficients c1, c2 ... c;,.

2.3.2 Advantages of Canonical Variables The main advantages of canonical variables arc 1. The matrix A is diagonal 2. The diagonal clement is very important in the mathematical analysis. 3. Due to diagonal feature, the decoupling between the state variable is possible. This

means all 'n' differential equations are independent of each other. Thus X1 depends on X1 alone.Xi depends 011 "2 alone and so on. Such decoupling is important in system design from controlling point of view.

2.3.3 Disadvantages of Canonical Variables The main disadvantages of canonical variables is similar lo the phase variables. These arc not the physical variables hence practically difficult to measure and control. Hence such variables arc not practically advantageous, though mathematically arc very important

In such form, group a pole and zero together and arrange given transfer function as the product of all such groups. Then simulate each group separately and connect all such simulations in cascade to get complete simulation. Then assigning output of each integrator as a state variable obtain a state model in standard form.

Matrix Algebra and Derivation of Transfer Function 3.1 Background The methods of obtaining the state model in various forms, from the transfer function of a system are discussed in the last chapter. It is also seen that the state models can be different and not a unique property for the given system. But most important point about the system Is Its transfer function is always unique. Though number of state models are derived for the system, the transfer function of the system, obtained from all of them is always unique for single input single output system. In this chapter the method of obtaining transfer function of the system from its state model is discussed. The concepts of diagonalisation of system matrix A, eigcn values and elgcn vectors arc also included in this chapter. Number of methods from matrix algebra are used to understand the relation between stale model and transfer function hence revision of matrix algebra is included in the beguuung of this chapter.

A matrix with number of columns as 1 Le. order m x 1 is called column matrix while a matrix with number of rows as 1 i.c, order 1 x n is called row matrix, It is seen that vector matrices X. X, Y are the column matrices.

3.2.1 Types of Matrices The various types of matrices are. 1. Square Matrix : If number of rows (ml is equal to number of columns (n) of a matrix, it is called a square matrix. The system matrix A in a state model is always a square matrix of order n x n. 2. Diagonal Matrix : It is a square matrix with a.II a1;

0 for all i ~ j. Only main diagonal clements arc present which arc nonzero while all other clements are zero. For example,

3. Unit Matrix : This is a diagonal matrix, with all the main diagonal elements equal to unity. It is denoted as 1 and also called identity matrix. The unit matrix of order 3 x 3 is, I =

If given matrix is A then its transpose is dl'TIOll'CI as AT.

If now ith row and jth column are deleted then the remaining (n - 1) rows and columns form a determinant M;i. The value of this determinant is called the minor of an clement ll;j·

4. Rank of a Matrix : To find the rank of a matrix means to search for a highest order determinant from a given matrix which is having nonzero value. Thus if r x r determinant has a nonzero value in a given matrix then the rank of a matrix is 'r' and any determinant having order r + 1 or more than that has a zero value.

The 'n' roots of the equation (3) i.e. the values of ). satisfying the above equation (3) are called elgen values of the matrix A.

The equation (2) is similar to Isl - A I 0, which is the characteristic equation of the system. Hence values of ), satisfying characteristic equation are the dosed loop poles of the system. Thus eigen values are the closed loop poles of the system,

3.7 Eigen Vectors Any nonzero vector X; such that AX; = A; X; is said to be cigcn vector associated with eigenvalue ),;·Thus let ). = A; satisfies the equation, ().1 I-A)

X = 0

Then solution of this equation is called eigen vector of A associated with cigen value ).1 and is denoted as M1. If the rank of the matrix P·; I - A) is r, then there arc (n - r) independent eigcn vectors. Similarly another important point is that if the eigen values of matrix A are all distinct, then the rank r of matrix A is (n - 1) where n is order of the system. Mathematically, the cigen vector can be calculated by taking cofactors of matrix 0.1 I - A) along any row •

Thus

M; = Eigcn vector for A; = :~

where Cid is cofactor of matrix (/,.; I - A) of k1h row. Key Point: If the cofactors along a particular row givts null solution i.e. nil elements of corresponding eigen vectors are zero then cofactors along any other row must be ob/nilled.

Otherwise inverse of modal matrix M cannot exist. 3.8 Modal Matrix M Let :>..1, 1.2, ..• /,.n are then eigenvalues of the matrix A while M1, M2, ... ~are the eigen vectors corresponding to the eigcn values ).1, ).2 ... An respectively. Each eigen vector is of the order n x 1 and placing all the cigcn vectors one after another as the columns of another matrix, n x n matrix can be obtained. Such a matrix obtained by placing all the eigen vectors together is called a modal matrix or diagonalising matrix of matrix A.

3.9 Diagonalisatlon The diagonal matrix plays an important role in the matrix algebra. The eigen values and inverse of a diagonal matrix can be very easily obtained just by an inspection. Thus in state variable analysis, if the matrix A is diagonalised then it is very easy to handle mathematically. Whc!l matrix A ls diagonalised, then the elements along its principle diagonal are the eigcn values. The eigen values are the closed loop poles of the system, from which stability of the system can be analysed. The diagonal matrix A indicates noninteraction of various state variables. Tile derivative of one state variable is dependent on the corresponding state variable alone and other state variables do not interact in it, when A is diagonal matrix. This is practically important from controlling point of view. Due to all these reasons, the diagonaUsation of matrix A is always motivated. The techniques used to transform the general state model into diagonal form i.e. canonical form are called dlagonallutlon techniques. Consider nlh order state model in which matrix A is not diagonal . X(t)

The equations (7) and (8) gives the canonical state model in which M - 1 AM is a diagonal matrix denoted as II. The matrix M which transforms A into diagonal form is called diagonalising matrix or modal matrix. The new canonical state model is represented as, Z(t)

3.10 Generalised Eigen Vectors The generalised eigen vectors are the eigen vectors corresponding to repeated eigcn values. Uptill now, it is assumed that tile eigenvalues are distinct but if an eigen value At is repeated for r times then the corresponding eigen vectors are called generalised eigen vectors.

U a particular cigen value A 1 is repeated r times then the rank of n x n matrix [A11- A) is n - 1 and there is only one independent cigen vector associated with A1 given by,

... Ckn are cofactors about kth row

Important Note : If cofactors along a particular row gives all values zero i.e. eigen vector as null matrix, then cofactors along other row must be obtained. For remaining (r - 1) eigenvectors for r - 1 times repeated value A1, generalised eigen vectors must be used as,

Solution of State Equations 4.1 Background Uptill now the methods of obtaining state model in various forms and obtaining transfer function from the state model arc discussed. It is seen that the output response depends on the state variables and their initial values. Hence it is necessary to obtain the state vector X(t) which satisfies the state equation X(t) " A X(t) + B U(t) at any time l. This is called solution of state equations, which helps to obtain the output response of a system. Consider the state equatio n of linear time invariant system as, X(t) = A X(t) + B U(t) The matrices A and B arc constant matrices. This state equation can be of two types, 1. Homogeneous and 2. Nonhomogcncous

4.1.1 Homogeneous Equation If A is a constant matrix and input control forces arc zero then the equation takes the form,

.

X(t) = A X(t)

...(1)

Such an equation is called homogeneous equation. The obvious equation is if input is zero,how output can exist ? In such systems, the driving force Is provided by the initial conditions of the system lo produce the output. For example, consider a series RC circuit in which capacitor is initially charged to V volts. The current is the output. Now there is no input control force i.e.. external voltage applied to the system. But the initial voltage on the capacitor drives the current through the system and capacitor starts discharging through the resistance R. Such a system which works on the initial conditions without any input applied lo it is called homogeneous system.

4.1.2 Nonhomogeneous Equation If A is a constant matrix and matrix U(t) is non zero vector I.e. the input control forces arc applied to the system then the equation takes normal form as,

.

X(t)

= A X(t) + B U(t)

... (2)

Such an equation is called nonhomogeneous equation. Most of the practical systems require inputs to drive them. Such systems are nonhomogcncous linear systems. The solution of the state equation is obtained by considering basic method of finding the solution of homogeneous equation.

This is a homogeneous equation without the input vector. Assume the solution of this equation as,

This is the required solution of homogeneous equation in scalar form. Thus if the homogeneous state equation is considered, X(t)

=

A X(t)

then its solution can be written as, X(t) = eAt X(O) In this case, eAt is not a scalar but a matrix of order n x n as that of matrix A. Observation : It can be observed that without input, initial state X(O) drives the state X(t) at any time t. Thus there is transition of the initial state X(O) from initial time t : 0 to any time t through the matrix cA1. As it is an exponential term, the matrix cAl is called matrix exponential. It is also responsible for the transition of the state X(t) at any time t from initial time hence also called state transition matrix. It is denoted as o (t). $(1)

4.2.1 Zero Input Response The solution of the homogeneous state equation L~ under the condition of zero input. Such a response is called zero input response and for convenience denoted as ZIR. Thus the behaviour of X(t) under the initial conditions without any input U(t) is called the zero input response of the system. It is also called free, natural or unforced response of the system.

4.3 Solution of Nonhomogeneous Equation Consider a nonhomogeneous

Solution of State Equations

Observations : 1. The solution is divided into two parts. The first part is eAt X(O) which is nothing but the homogeneous solution or zero input response (ZIR). t

J eA(t-t)

2. The other part

B U(t) dt is the part existing only due to application of

0

input U(t) from time 0 to t, It is called forced solution or zero state response (ZSR). Thus the solution is, t

X(l)

= eA• X(O)+

j eA(t-t) BU(t)dt 0

ZSR

If the Initial time is considered as t = X{t)

than t = 0, the solution is,

Due this important property, it is very convenient to use Laplace transform method to obtain the solution of state equation. Consider the nonhomogcncous slate equation as, X(t) = A X(t} + B U(t)

... (1)

Taking Laplace transform of both sides, s X(s) - X(O} s X(s) - A X(s)

A X(s) + B U(s} X(O) + B U(s)

As s is operator, multiplying it by Identify matrix of order n x n, (sl - A) X(s) = X(O} + B U(s) Premultiplying both sides by (sl - Ar 1, :. [sl - A]" I [sl - A] X(s} = [sl - Ar I (X(O) + B U(s}I X(s)

4.6 Computation of State Transition Matrix While obtaining the solution of stale equation, the computation of state transition matrix cAt plays an important role. There arc various methods of obtaining state transition matrix from the state model. These methods are, 1. Laplace transform method 2. Power series method 3. Caylcy Hamilton method 4.

... (I)

cAt

Thus by calculating various powers of A and then few terms of power series, can be evaluated. As the power series is infinite, it is necessary to stop after calculating first few terms of the series. Calculating hlgh powers of A is practically time consuming and hence lhls method is not practically used to obtain stale transition matrix.

The existence of such a solution depends on the answers of two basic questions which are, 1. For a given system, is it possible to transfer any il).itial state to any other desired state in a finite time under the effect of suitable control input force ?

2. If the output is measured for finite time then with the knowledge of the input, is it possible to determine initial state of the system ? The answer to the first question gives the concept of the controllability while the answer to the second question gives the concept of observability of the system.

4.12 Controllability The answer to the first question means the concept of controllability of a system which is related to the transfer of any initial state of the system to any other desired state, in a finite length of time by application of proper inputs. Hence controllability can be defined as, A system is said to be completely state controllable if it L~ possible to transfer the system state from any initial state X(t0) to any other desired state X(t 1) in a specified finite time interval (t 1) by a control vector U(t). The concept of controllability and observability were originally introduced by Kalman hence Kalman's tests are used to find out whether the system is controllable and observable or not.

4.12.1 Kalman's Test for Controllablllty Consider n '" order multiple input Linear time invariant system represented by its state equation as, X = AX(t) + BU(t)

where A has order n x n matrix and

U(t) is rn x 1

X(t) is n x 1 state vector. The necessary and sufficient condition for the system to be completely state controllable is that the rank of the composite matrix Qc is 'n', The composite matrix Qc is given by, ... (2)

ln this composite matrix Qc, B, AB, A 2B ... arc the various columns. Proof : Let us see the proof for this condition. Assume that the final state is the origin of the state space while the initial time is zero i.e. t0

= 0.

As fmal state t = tr, is the origin of the state space then X(t1) = 0. . .. (3)

The vector matrix of Pk is of order n x 1 and if system has to be state controllable then any X(O) must satisfy equation (9) for which rank of 0., must be n which is a n x n matrix. For any rank of 0., less than 'n' ii indicates that some of the states arc not controllable. This proves that the rank of composite controllability of the system.

must be 'n' for complete state

The advantage of Kalman's test is that for any form of matrix A whether A is canonical or otherwise, the test can be applied. But its limitation is that it does not give a physical feel of the problem. If the answer to the Kalmans test is uncontrollable then it does not indicate which mode is uncontrollable. But due to mathematical simplicity of its application, Kalman's test is used to test the controllability. Key Point: The matrix has a rank r 111tans tire dt1em1i11a11t of ordtr r x r of the matrix has 1wnuro value and any detem1i111111t having order r + 1 or more than that has zero value. !Thus rank of 0., ••

4.12.2 Condition for State Controllability in s-Plane The system is represented by its transfer function in the s-plane. Such a system is completely state controllable only if the denominator and numerator polynomials of the transfer function do not have a common factor, except the constant. Such polynomials are called coprime. In other words, there should not be a pole-zero cancellation in the s-domain transfer function of the system for complete state controllability. If the pole-zero cancellation exists then a.JI the information about the dynamic behaviour of the system is not carried all along the system. In such a case, the system cannot be controlled in the direction of the cancelled mode.

4.12.3 Gilbert's Test for Controllability For the Gilbert's test it is necessary that the matrix A must be in canonical form. Hence the given state model is required to be transformed to the canonical form first, to apply the Gilbert's test.

It is assumed that all the eigcn values of A are distinct. In such a case the necessary and sufficient condition for the complete state controllability is that the vector matrix B should not have any zero elements. If it Ms zero elements then the corresponding state variables are not controllable.

If the eigen values are repeated then matrix A cannot be transformed to Jordan canonical form. If A has eigen values A,, A,, 1-z, 1'z, 1'z, ~ "4· ... A,, then the transformation results Jordan canonical form as, O················· O·················

Key Point: As Gilbert's lest requires to transfonn matrix A into canonicalform, it is time

ccmsuming and hence Kal111a11's test is popularly used to ttSt controllability. 4.12.4 Output Controllablllty In the design of some practical systems, it is necessary to control the output variables rather than the stale variables. In such a case complete output controllability is defined. Consider the stale model of a linear lime invariant system as, X(I)

A X(t) + B U(l)

Y(I)

C X(t) + D U(t)

The system is said to be completely output controllable if it is possible to construct an unconstrained input vector U(t) which will transfer any given initial output Y(lo) to any final output Y(t1) in a finite time interval to St S t1. In such a case, construct the test matrix Q., as,

Q.,

=

[CB: CAB: CA2B: ... CAn-l

B: DJ

Thus if the order of matrix C is p x n i.e. there are p outputs then for the complete output controllability, the rank of test matrix Q< must be p.

4.13 Observability The observability is related to the problem of dcterrnlning the system ·state by measuring the output for finite length of time. Hence observability can be defined as, A system is said to be completely observable, if every stoic X(t0) can be completely identified by measurements of the outputs Y(t) over a finite time interval. If the system is not completely observable means that few of its state variables are not practically measurable and arc shielded from the observation. Similar to the controllability, the observabillty of the system can be obtained by using Kalman's test.

... (5)

as the left hand side is known due to measured output. Thus for observability, the unforced system can be considered i.e, homogeneous state equation can be considered. Consider the state model of unforced system as, X = A X(t)

The conditions remain same as before that the numerator and denominator polynomials of transfer function must be coprime. There should not be cancellation of pole and zero in the transfer function. If the cancellation occurs then the system is not observable and the cancelled mode cannot be observed in the output.

Pole Placement Tuchnique 5.1 Introduction This chapter deals with the problem of pole placement. The pole placement technique or pole assignment technique is a method for design of control system which ls discussed in this chapter. If it is assumed that all the state variables for a given system arc measurable and available for the feedback then it can be proved that for a completely state controllable such system, its closed loop system poles can be placed at any desired location through state feedback by means of an appropriate state feedback gain matrix. The desired closed loop poles are firstly evaluated based on transient response and/or frequency response requirements such as say damping ratio, speed, bandwidth as well as the steady state requirements. Let us consider that the desired closed loop poles arc to be located at s=a1, s=u2 ......... s=a n- Then by properly selecting gain matrix for state feedback. il is possible to locate the closed loop poles al the desired locations provided that the original system is completely state controllable. In the following sections, we will consider the control signal to be scalar. It can then be proved that the necessary and sufficient condition that the closed loop poles can be placed at any arbitrary locations in the s-plane is that the system is completely state controllable Le. it is possible to transfer the system state from any initial state X(t0) to any other desired state X(t1) in a specified finite time interval (t1) by a control vector U(t). The required state feedback gain matrix can then be evaluated using various methods.

In this chapter, It is considered that the control signal is a scalar quantity and not a vector quantity. Under such case, the mathematical aspects of the pole placement technique is complicated as the state feedback gain matrix is not unique.

Pole Placement Technique

5.2 Pole Placement Design The conventional method of design of single input single output control system consists of design of a suitable controller or compensator in such a way that the dominant dosed loop poles will have a desired damping ratio ~ and undamped natural frequency IDn. The order of the system in this case is increased by 1 or 2 if there arc no pole zero cancellation taking place. It is assumed in this method that the effects on the responses of non dominant closed loop poles to be negligible. Instead of specifying only the dominant dosed loop poles in the conventional method of design, the pole placement technique describes all the closed loop poles which requires measurements of alJ state variables or inclusion of a state observer in the system. The system dosed loop poles can be placed at arbitrarily chosen locations with the condition that the system is completely state controllable .. This condition can be proved and the proof is given below. Consider a control system described by following state equation ... (1)

x=Ax+Bu

Here x is a state vector, u is a control signal which is scalar, A is n x n state matrix. B is n x l constant matrix. The system defined by above equation represents open loop system. The state x is not fed back to the control signal u,

u

Let us select the control signal to be u Kx state. This indicates that the control signal is obtained from instantaneous state. This is called state feedback. The k is a matrix of order Ix n called state feedback gain matrix. Let us consider the control signal to be unconstrained. Substituting value of u in equation 1 . Fig. 5.1 Open loop control system

.

x = Ax+B(-Kx)=(A-13K)x

=-

. .. (2) The system defined by above equation is shown in the Fig. 5.2. It is a dosed loop control system as the system state x is fed back to the control system as the system slate x is fed back to control signal u. Thus this a system with state feedback.

Fig. 5.2

5-3

Modem Control Theory The solution of equation 2 is say x(t)

=

e,

x(O) is the initial state

... (3)

The stability and the transient response cha.racteristics arc determined by the eigcn values of matrix A - BK. Depending on the selection of state feedback gain matrix K, the matrix A - BK can be made asymptotically stable and it is possible to make x(t) approaching to zero 3$ time t approaches to infinity provided x(O) ,. 0. The eigen values of matrix A - BK are called regulator poles. These regulator poles when placed in left half of s plane then x(t) approaches zero as time t approaches infinity. The problem of placing the closed loop poles at the desired location is called a pole placement problem.

5.3 Necessary and Sufficient Condition for Arbitrary Pole Placement Consider a control system defined by following state equation. x = Ax+

Bu

Let the control signal selected be u x

=

Ax - BKx

. .. (1)

=-

Kx

= (A - BK) x

... (2)

The solution of the above equation is given as, x(t)

=

.,(A-6 K)I . x(O)

... (3)

The eigcn values of the matrix (A - BK) are nothing but desired closed loop poles. The necessary and sufficient condition for arbitrary pole placement is that the system is completely state controllable.

If suppose the system is not completely state controllable then there arc eigcn values of matrix A - BK that can not be controlled by state feedback. According to Kalrnan's test for state controllability, the system is said to be completely state controllable if the rank of the composite matrix Qc is n.

Q,, = [B: AB:A2B:

An-ls]

Let us suppose that the system is not completely state controllable. The rank of the controllabiUty matrix is less than n, rank(B:AB:A2B:

:A0-1B]

= s
Thus there are s linearly independent column vectors in the controllability matrix. Let these s linearly independent column vectors as c1, c2, c•. Also let us select n - s additional vectors t,.1, ts.2, ....... t,, such that

Thus the necessary and sufficient condition for arbitrary pole placement is proved and it requires the system to be completely state controllable. For a system which is not completely state controllable but is stabilizable, then the total system can be made stable by placement of closed loop poles at the desired locations for s controllable modes. The rest n - s uncontrollable modes are stable which shows that the total system can be made stable.

5.4 Evaluation of State Feedback Gain Matrix K Following are the different methods for evaluation of state feedback gain matrix K i) Using Transformation Matrix T ii) Using Direct Substitution Method

5.4.2 Direct SubstitutionMethod For low order system with n less than or equal to 3 matrix I< can be directly substituted inlo the desired characteristic equation. If suppose n = 3 then the state feedback gain matrix K is I< = [1<1 1<2 K3) The above matrix is directly substituted in the desired characteristic equation Isl-A +BKI and equated to ( s-a1 )( s-a2 )( s-a3) i.e, lsl-A+BKI

The both sides of the characteristic: equation are polynomials in s. Hence the co-efficient of similar powers in s on both sides can be equated so as to get the values of K1, K2 and K3. This method is restricted for n = 2 or 3. For higher orders of n the calculations become complex. It is not possible to determine matrix I< if the system is not completely controllable.

5.4.3 Ackermann's Formula Consider a system defined by state equation x =Ax+ Bu. let u = -Kx be state feedback control. Assuming' the system to be completely state controllable nnd the desired closed loop poles are assumed at s = a1, s = u2, ••••••••• s = a0• Using u = - Kx in state equation

Pole .Placement Technique

5.5 Selection of Location of Desired Closed Loop Poles The locations of desired closed loop poles must first be chosen in the pole placement design technique. The commonly used method for such selection of poles is based on the experiences obtained from root locus design of placing a dominant pair of closed loop poles. The other poles are selected in such a way that they arc away from dominant dosed loop poles in left half of s plane. If the dominant closed loop poles are placed away from jlo or imaginary axis then the response obtained from the system is very quick but at the cost of system becoming nonlinear which should be avoided. The other method of selection of poles is Ute quadratic optimal control technique. In this method, the desired closed loop poles arc determined in such a way that it balances between the acceptable response and the amount of control energy required. The high speed response indicates that large amount of control eneri,'Y is required. In addition to this a larger and heavier actuator is required which increases the cost.

5.7 Concept of State Observer In case of state observer, the state variables are estimated based on the measurements of the output and control variables. The concept of observability plays important part here in case of state observer. Consider a system defined by following state equations x ;

Ax+Bu

y

Cx

x

Let us consider as the observed state vectors. The observer is basically a subsystem which reconstructs the state vector of the system. The mathematical model of the observer is same as that of the plant except the inclusion of additional term consisting of estimation error to compensate for inaccuracies in matrices A and 'B and the lack of the initial error. The estimation error or the observation error is the difference between the measured output and the estimated output. The initial error is the difference between the initial state and the initial estimated state. Thus the mathematical model of the observer can be defined as, x

Ax+Bu+K.(y-Cx) Ax+Bu+K.y+KeCx (A-K.C)x+Bu+K.y

x

x

Here is the estimated state and C is the estimated output. The observer has inputs of output y and control input u. Matrix K0 is called the observer gain matrix. It is nothing but weighting matrix for the correction term which contains the difference between the measured output y and the estimated output CX. This additional term continuously corrects the model output and the performance of the observer is improved. Full order state observer The system equations are already defined as x ;

The mathematical model of the state observer is taken as,

Fig. 5.3 The dynamic behavior of the error vector is obtained from the cigen values of matrix A-K.C. If matrix A-K.C is a stable matrix then the error vector will converge to zero for any initial error vector e(O). Hence x(t) will converge to x(t) irrespective of values of x(O) and x(O). II the eigen values of matrix A-K.c are selected in such a manner that the dynamic behaviour of the error vector is asymptotically stable and is sufficiently fast then any of the error vector will tend to zero with sufficient speed. If the system is completely observable then it can be shown that it is possible to select matrix Ke such that A-K.C has arbitrarily desired eigen values. Le, observer gain matrix I<• can be obtained to get the desired matrix A-K.C.

5.11 Selection of Suitable Value of Observer Gain Matrix

K.

The feedback signal through the observer gain matrix K,, acts as a correction signal to the plant model to account for the unknowns in the plant. If the unknowns involved arc significant then the feedback signal through matrix Ke is comparatively large. But if the output signal is affected by disturbances and measurement noises then output y is not reliable and feedback signal through matrix K, should be small. The effects of disturbances and noises involved in output y should be neatly studied while evaluating matrix KeThe observer gain

is dependent on the desired characteristic equation 0. The selection of a1,u2 u., is many times not unique. But normally the observer poles should be two to five limes Caster than the controller poles. TIUs makes the observation or estimation error converging to zero quickly. The observer estimation error decays two to five times faster than does the stale vector x. Puc to this foster decay of observer error, the system response is dominated by controller poles.

With the appreciable noise produced by sensor then the observer poles can be selected to be slower than two times the controller poles. The bandwidth of the system will then be less and noise wiU be smoothened. The system response is dependent on observer poles in such case. The observer poles arc located to the right of controller poles in left half of s-plane so that the system n.'Sponsc is influenced by observer poles. While designing thc state observer, it is required to evaluate various observer gain matrices Ke based on number of various desired characteristic equations. For each of these different matrices K. r the simulation tests can be run to check the overall system performance. Based on the performance, the best possible K. om be selected. In many systems, the best value of K0 is obtained after a compromise between fast response and sensitivity to disturbances and noise signals.

The closed loop poles of observed state feedback system consists of the poles due to pole placement design alone and poles due to observer design alone. Thus the pole placement design and observer design arc independent of each other. The design of each can be done independently and it can be combined to get observed state feedback control system. For n as the order of the plant, the order of the observer is also n whdc the resulting characteristic equation of the total dosed loop system is of order 2n.

Controllers 6.1 Background The concept of a control system is to sense deviation of the output from the desired value and correct it. till the desired output is achieved. The deviation of the actual output form its desired value is called an error. The measurement of error is possible because of feedback. The feedback allows us to compare the actual output with its desired value to generate the error. The error is denoted as e(t). The desired value of the output is also called reference input or a set point. The error obtained is required to be analysed to take the proper corrective action. The controller is an clement which accepts the error in some form and decides the proper corrective action. The output of the controller is then applied to the process or final control clement. This brings the output back to its desired set point value. The controller is the heart of a control system. The accuracy of the entire system depends on how sensitive is the controller to the error detected and how it is manipulating such an error. The controller has it' own logic lo handle the error. Now a days for better accuracy, the digital controllers such as microprocessors, microcontrollers, computers are used. Such controllers execute certain algorithm to calculate the manipulating signal. This chapter explains the basic discontinuous controllers such as on-off controller, continuous controllers such as proportional, integral etc. and composite controllers such "5 proportional plus integral, proportional plus derivative etc. Let us study first the general properties of the controller.

6.2 Properties of Controller Consider a control system shown in the Fig. 6.1 which includes a controller. The actual output is sensed by a sensor and converted to a proper feedback signal b(t) using a feedback clement. The set point value is the reference input r(t). For example the actual output variable may be temperature but using the thermocouple as the feedback element, the feedback signal b(t) is an electrical voltage. This is then compared with reference input which i~ also an electrical voltage. The thermocouple senses the output temperature and produces the corresponding electrical e.m.I as the feedback signal. Hence actual output variable sensed and the feedback signal may be having different forms. (6 • 1)

6.2.1 Error The error detector compares the feedback signal b(t) with the reference input r(t) to generate an error. e{t)

=

r(t) - b(t)

This gives an absolute indication of an error.

For example if the set point for a range of 5 mV to 20 mV is 12 mV and the feedback signal is 11.8 mV then error is 0.2 mV. But actual vairable to be controlled may be different such as temperature, pressure etc. Hence to obtain correct information from the error, it is expressed in percentage forrn related to the controller operation. It is expressed as the percentage of the measured variable range. The range of the measured variable b(t) is also called span. span = b""" -bnun

Thus

Hence error can be expressed as percent of span as,

6.2.2 Variable Range In practical systems, the controlled variable has a range of values within which the control is required to be maintained. This range is specified as the maximum and minimum values allowed for the controlled variable. It can be specified as some nominal values and plus-minus tolerance allowed about this value. Sur.h range is important for the design of contollers.

6.2.3 Controller Output Range Similar to the controlled variable, a range is associated with a controller output variable. It is also specified intcrms of the maximum and minimum values. But oltcn the controller output is expressed as a percentage where minimum controller output is 0% and maximum controller output is 100 %. But 0 % controller output docs not mean, zero output. For example it is necessary requirement or the system that a steam flow corresponding to ,V.1h opening or the valves should be mininum. Thus 0% controller output in such case corresponds to the

}'.;th

opening of the valve.

The controller output as a percent of full scale when the output changes within the specified range is expressed as,

6.2.4 Control Lag The control system can have a lag associated with it. The control lag is the time required by the process and controller loop to make the necessary changes to obtain the output at Its setpoinL The control lag must be compared with the process lag while designing the controllers. For example in a process a valve is required to be open or closed for controlling the output variable. Physically the action of opening or closing of the valve is very slow and is the part of the process lag. Jn such a case there is no point in designing a fast controller than the process lag.

6.2.5 Dead Zone Many a times a dead zone is associated with a process control loop. The time corresponding to dead zone is called dead time. The time elapsed between the instant when error occurs and the instant when first corrective action occurs is called dead time.

Modem Control Theory

Controllers

Nothing happens in the system, during this time though the error occurs. This part is also called dead band. The effect of such dead time must be considered while the design of the controllers.

6.3 Classification of Controllers The classification of the controllers is based on the response of the controller and mode of operation of the controller. For example in a simple temperature control of a room, the heater is to be controlled. It should be switched on or off by the controller when temperature crosses its setpoint. Such an operation of the controller is called discontinuous operation nnd the mode of operation is called disconti.nuous mode of controller. But in some process control systems, simple on/off decision is not sufficient. For example, controlling the steam flow by opening or closing the valve. In such case a smooth opening or closing of valve is necessary. The controller in such a case is said to be operating in a continuous mode. Thus the controllers are basically classified as discontinuous controllers and continuous controllers. The discontinuous mode controllers arc further classified as ON-OFF controllers and multiposition controllers. The continuous mode controllers arc further classified as proportional controllers, integral controllers and derivative controllers. Some continuous mode controllers can be combined to obtain composite controller mode. The examples of such composite controllers are Pl, PD and PIO controllers. The most of the controllers arc placed in the forward path of control system. But in some cases, input to the controller is controlled through a feedback path. The example of such a controller is rate feedback controller. In this chapter, only continuous and composite controllers are discussed.

6.4 Continuous Controller Modes In the discontinuous controller mode, the output of th" controller is discontinuous and not smoothly varying. But in the continuous controller mode, the controller output varies smoothly proportional to the error or proportional to some form of the error. Depending upon which form of the error is used as the input to the controller to produce the continuous controller output, these controllers arc classified as, L Proportional control mode 2. Integral control mode 3. Derivative control mode Let. us discuss these control modes in detail.

Controllers

6.5 Proportional Control Mode In this control mode, the output of the controller is simple proportional to the error e(t). The relation between the error e(t) and the controller output p is determined by constant called proportional gain constant denoted as KP. The output of the controller is a linear function of the error e(t). Thus each value of the error has a unique value of the controller output. The range of the error which covers 0 % to 100 % controller output is called proportional band. Now though there exists linear relation between controller output and the error, for a zero error the controller output should not be zero, otherwise the process will come to halt. Hence there exists some controller output Po for the zero error. Hence mathematically the proportional control mode is expressed as, ... (!)

Proportional gain constant

Where Po

Controller output with zero error

The direct and reverse action is possible in the proportional control mode. The error may be positive or negative because error is r-b and b can be less or greater than reference setpoint r. If the controlled variable i.e. input to the controller increases, causing increase in the controller output, the action is called direct action. For example the output valve is to be controlled to maintain the liquid level in a tank. So if the level increases, the valve should be opened more to maintain the level. If the controlled variable decreases, causing increase in the controller output or increase in the controlled variable, causing decrease in the controller output, the action is called reverse action. For example simple heater control for maintaining temperature. If the temperature increases, the drive to the heater must be decreased.

So if e(t) is negative then Kpe(t) gets subtracted from p0 and c(t) is positive, then JS,e(t) gets added to Po- this Is reverse action. So equation (!) represents the reverse action. But using negative sign to the correction term Kpe(I), the direct action proportionnl controller can be achieved. The proportional controller depends on the proper design of the gain K.,. For fixed Peif gain KP is high then large output results for small error but narrow error band can be handled. Beyond these limit' of the error, output will be saturated. If the gain is small then the response is smaller but large error band can be handled. This is shown in the Fig. 6.2.

Fig. 6.2 The proportional band is mathematically defined by,

6.5.1 Characteristic of Proportional Mode The various characteristics of the proportional mode are, 1. When the error is zero, the controller output is constant equal to Po2. If the error occurs, then for every 1 % of error the correction of Kr % is achieved. If error is positive, KP% correction gets added to p0 and if error is negative, Kr% correction gets subtracted from Po· 3. The band of error exists for which the output of the controller is between 0 % to 100 % without saturation. 4. The gain KP and the error band PB are inversely proportional to each other.

6.5.2 Offset The major disadvantage of the proportional control mode is that it produces an offset error in the output. When the load changes, the output deviates from the setpoinl Such a deviation is called offset error or steady state error. Such an offset error is shown in the Fig. 6.3. The offset error depends upon the reaction rate of the controller. Slow reaction rate produces small offset error while fast reaction rate produces large offset error.

Controllers

Oull)Ul

Fig. 6.3 Offset error in porportlonal mode The dead time or transfer lag present in the system further worsens the result. It produces not only the large offset at the output but the time required to achieve steady state is also large. The offset error can be minimized by the large proportional gain KP which reduces the proportional band. If KP is made very large, the proportional band becomes so small that it acts as an ON/OFF controller producing oscillations about the setpoint instead of an offset error.

6.5.3 Applications The proportional controller can be suitable where, 1. Manual reset of the operating point is possible. 2. Load changes arc small. 3. The dead time exists in the system is small.

6.6 Integral Control Mode In the proportional produces an offset error. another control mode is of the errors. This mode

control mode, error reduces but can not go to zero. It finally It can not adapt with the changing load conditions. To avoid this, oftenly used in the control systems which is based on the history is called integral mode or reset action controller.

In such a controller, the value of the controller output p(t) is changed at a rate which is proportional to the actuating error signal e(t). Mathematically it is expressed as, d p(t) dr Where

The output signal from the controller, at any instant is the area under the actuating error signal curve up to that instant. If the value of the error is doubled, the value of p(t) varies twice as fast i.c. rate of the controller output change also doubles. If the error is zero. the controller output is not changed. The control signal p{t) can have nonzero value when the error signal <'{t) is zero. This is because the output depends on the history of the error and not on the instantaneous value of the error.

If there is positive error, the controller output begins to ramp up.

ll can be seen that when error is positive, the outpul p(t) ramps up. For zero error, there is no change in the output. And when error is negative, the output p(t) ramps down.

Fig. 6.6 Step response

6.6.2 Characteristics of Integral Mode The integrating controller is relatively slow controller. It changes its output at a rate which is dependent on the integrating time constant, until the error signal is cancelled. Compared lo the proporlional control, the integral control requires lime lo build up an appreciable output. However it continues lo act till the error signal disappears. This corrects the problem of the offset error in the proportional controller. For example, Jct us assume that the integral controller is used to control the armature current of a d.c. motor and to keep its value constant ot 500 A. As long as the armature current is less U10n 500 A, the armature voltage, controlled by the controller, will increase. TI1us the output of the controller will increase and will continue to do so till the error becomes zero i.e. armature current becomes 500 A. Then the controller output will remain at that value reached. This is possible because the output of the controller can remain al any value within its r.mr,c. if the input is zero. 'The controller must not be overdriven as it will not then be effective. Thus for an iJllC!,'Tlll mode, I. If error is zero, the output remains at a fixed value equal to what is was, when the error became ·~ro. 2. If the error is not zero, then the output begins to increase or decrease, at a rate K; % per second for every ± l % of error. In some cases, the inverse of K, called integral time is specified, denoted as 1;.

becomes zero.

Table 6.1 It can be S(.'Cn that proportional mode is more favourable at the start while the integral is better for steady state response. In pure integral mode, error can oscillate about zero and can be cyclic. Hence in practice integral mode is never used alone but combined with the proportional mode, to enjoy the advantages of both the modes.

6.7 Derivative Control Mode In practice the error is Junction of time and at a particular instant it can be zero. But it may not remain zero forever after that instant. Hence some action is required corresponding to the rate at which the error is changing. Such a controller is called derivative controller. In this mode, the output of the controller depends on the time rate of change of the actual errors. Hence it is also called rate action mode or anticipatory action mode. The mathematical equation for the mode is. p(t) Where

K d c(t) J di Derivative gain constant.

The derivative gain constant indicates by how much % the controller output must change for every % per sec rate of change of the error. Generally Kd is expressed in minutes. The important feature of this type of control mode i.~ that for a given rate of change of error signal, there is a unique value of the controller output.

The advantage of the derivative control action is that ii responds to the rate of change of error and can produce the significant correction before the magnitude of the actuating error becomes too large. Derivative control thus anticipates the actuating error, initiates an early corrective action and tends to increase stability of the system improving the transient response.

Fig. 6.7 The controller output is SO% for the zero error. When error starts increasing, the controller output suddenly jumps to the higher value. It further jumps to a higher value for higher rate of increase of error. Then error becomes constant, the output returns to 50 %. When error is decreasing i.e. having negative slope, controller output decreases suddenly to a lower value.

The various characteristics of the derivative mode arc, I. For a given rate of change of error signal, there is a unique value of the controller output. 2. When the error is zero, the controller output is zero. 3. When the error is constant i.e. rate of change of error is zero, the controller output is zero. 4. When error is changing, the controller output changes by Kd % for even I % per second rate of change of error.

6.7.2 Applications When the error is zero or a constant, the derivative controller output is zero. Hence it is never used alone. Its gain should be small because faster rate of change of error can cause very large sudden change of controller output. This may lead to the instability of the system.

6.8 Composite Control Mo.des As mentioned earlier, due to offset error proportional mode is not used alone. Similarly integral and derivative modes are also not used individually in practice. Thus to tnke the advantages of various modes together, the composite control modes are used. TI1e various composite control modes are, I. Proportional + Integral mode (Pf) 2. Proportional + Derivative mode (PD) 3. Proportional + Integral + Derivative mode (PIO) let us sec U1e characteristics of these three modes.

6.9 Proportional + Integral Mode (Pl Control Mode) This is a composite control mode obtained by combining the proportional mode and the integral mode. The mathematical expression for such a composite control is, p(t)

The important advantage of this control is that one to one correspondence of proportional mode is available while the offset gets eliminated due to integral mode, the integral part of such a composite control provides a reset of the zero error output after a load change occurs. Consider the load change occurring at t.., t 1 and due to which error varies as shown in the Fig. 6.8. The controller output changes suddenly by amount VP due to the proportional action. After that the controller output changes linearly with respect to time at a rate KP I T1• The reset rate is defined as the reciprocal of T;.

The response of composite Pl control mode for the reverse action is shown in the Fig. 6.9. In the reverse action, the proportional part is the image of the error. The sum of proportional plus Integral action finally leaves the error to zero.

6.9.2 Applications The composite Pl mode completely removes the offset problems of proportional mode. Such a mode can be used in the systems with the frequent or large load changes. But the process must have relatively slow changes in the load, to prevent the oscillations.

6.10 Proportional + Derivative Mode (PD Control Mode) The series combination of proportional and derivative control modes gives proportional plus derivative control mode. The mathematical expression for the PD composite control is,

Smallest steady stale error. Increasing Kv, the steady state error for the ramp input can be reduced but it increases overshoot and settling time. This m:1y lead to instability of the system. So to keep steady state error and overshoot well within the acceptable limits, the various composite controllers arc used. Let us see the effect of PD, Pl, PID and rate feedback controller on the time rl'Sponsc of the second order system under consideration.

Nonlinear Systems

7.1 Introductionto Nonlinear Systems It has been mentioned earlier that a control system is said lo be linear if it obeys law of superposition. Most of the control systems are nonlinear in nature and are treated to be linear, under certain approximations, from ease of analysis point of view. Let us discuss now the properties of nonlinear systems. ln practice nonlinearities may exist in the systems inherently or may be purposely introduced in the systems, to improve the performance. Hence knowledge of properties of nonlinear systems and various nonlinearities is important.

7.2 Properties of Nonlinear Systems The various characteristics of nonlinear systems arc, 1. The most important characteristics of a nonlinear system is that it docs not obey the law of superposition. Hence its behaviour with respect to standard test inputs can not be used as base to analyse its behaviour with respect to other inputs. Its response is different for different amplitudes of input signals. Hence while doing the analysis of nonlinear system, alongwith the mathematical model of the system, it is necessary to have information about amplitudes of the probable inputs, initial conditions etc. This makes the analysis of the nonlinear system difficult. 2. Unear system gives sinusoidal output for a sinusoidal input, may be introducing a phase shift. But nonlinear system produces higher harmonics and sometimes the subharmonics. Hence for sinusoidal input, the output of a nonlinear system is generally nonsinusoidal. The output consists of frequencies which are multiples of the input frequency i.e. harmonics. The subharmonics means the presence of frequencies which are lower than the input frequency. The input and output relations are not linear. 3. In linear systems, the sinusoidal oscillations depend on the input amplitude and the initial conditions. But in a nonlinear system, the periodic oscillations may exist

which are not dependent on the applied input and other system parameter variations. ln nonlinear system, such periodic oscillations arc nonsinusoidal having fixed amplitude and frequency. Such oscillations are called limit cycles in case of nonlinear system. 4. Another important phenomenon which exists only in case of nonlinear system is jump resonance. nus can be explained by considering a frequency response. The Fig. 7.1 (a} shows the frequency response of a linear system which shows that output varies continuously as the frequency changes, Similarly though frequency is increased or decreased, the output travels along the same curve again and again. But in case of a nonlinear system, if frequency is increased, the output shows discontinuity l.e. it jumps at a certain frequency. And if frequency is decreased, it jumps back but at different frequency. nus is shown in the Fig. 7.1 (b).

7.3 Classification of Nonllnearitles Basically the nonlinearities are classified based on the fact that whether they are inherent or purposely introduced in the system. Depending upon this the two classes of nonlinearities are, 1. Inherent nonlinearities.

2. Intentional nonlinearities.

7.4 Inherent Nonlinearltles The nonlinearities which are unavoldeble in the control systems are called inherent nonlinearities. Let us discuss various types of inherent nonlinearities existing in practice.

7.4.5 Nonlinear Friction In any practical system, where there is a relative motion between the two moving surfaces, there exists a friction. There are various Output types of such friction. All of them arc nonlinear Viscous except viscous friction. The nonlinear friction Is 0.()15 called Coulomb friction. The coulomb friction is a force acting in opposite direction of motion but it is constant in magnitude irrespective of velocity.

Coulomb friction

The viscous and coulomb friction are shown in the Fig. 7.8. It can be seen that viscous friction is linear while coulomb friction is constant irrespective of the input.

Fig. 7.8 Friction

The example of coulomb friction is the friction existing between the brushes resting against the commutator in an electrical motor.

7.4.6 Backlash This type of nonlinearity is generally found in the mechanical linkage where coupling is not perfect. A common example Is the existence of free play between teeth of drive gear and driven gear of a gear train. This is shown in the Fig. 7.9 (a). The driven ge..r docs not work until there is contact between drive and driven gear. So input member has to travel the distance B to have the output, as indicated by input-output characteristics shown in the Fig. 7.9 (b). Once the contact is made output follows the input. If Ule motion is to be reversed, then input member has lo travel distance of 2B in reverse direction, as shown in the Fig. 7.9 (b),

The k' can be positive or negative. If k' is positive, the spring is called hard spring while if k' is negative, the spring is called soft spring. If k' = 0, the spring is no longer a nonlinear but behaves in a linear fashion. The degree of nonlinearity in the spring is totally controlled by the magnitude of k'. If such a spring is used in the system consisting of mass and friction then it is experimentally observed that the frequency of the free oscillations increases or decreases as the amplitude decreases depending upon the value of k',

For k' > 0, as the amplitude decreases, frequency also decreases. This is hard spring. For k' < 0, as amplitude decreases, the frequency increases. This is soft spring. For a linear spring such characteristics is a straight line. These curves are often used to find out whether them exists a nonlinearity in the spring and also to find the degree of nonlinearity.

7.5 Absolute Value Nonlinearity In some systems, though the direction of the input is changed, the output direction remains same. The value of output is absolute irrespectiveof the direction of the input applied. The best example of such a nonlinearity is a relay operated by the solenoid. Irrespective of the direction of the current through the solenoid, relay gets operated. This is shown in the Fig. 7.ll (a) and (b). Output

Phase Plane Method

8.1 Introduction The phase plane method is an important method used for the analysis of nonlinear systems. The phase plane method is applied normally to first order and second order of linear and nonlinear systems. The system behaviour is qualitatively analysed ;ilong with design of system parameters so as to get the desired response from the system. The periodic oscillations in nonlinear systems called limit cycle can be identified with this method which helps in investigating the stability of the system.

8.2 Limit Cycle In case of Ilncar lime invariant systems a periodic oscillation is sinusoidal. The amplitude of such oscillations is a function of excitation applied and initial conditions. IJ the system parameters arc changed slightly i.e, if the system poles arc shifted from the imllginary axis of complex s plane, then the oscillations will no longer exist. In case of nonlinear systems, periodic oscillations are present but arc not dependent on amplitude of applied excitation. Also the oscillations arc not much sensitive to parameter variations. A periodic oscillation is case of a nonlinear system is called limit cycle. Normally the limit cycles are non-sinusoidal. The limit cycles which arc having fixed amplitude and time period can be observed over a finite range of system parameters. The limit cycle is also called self excited oscillation which is observed in certain nonlinear systems, Consider a system described by following equation, M;;-µ(l-x2);+kx=O Herc M, µ and k are positive quantities, This is a nonlinear equation. For small values of x, the damping will be negative which indicates the energy is actually put in the system. For large values ol -. thP dam;,1ng is positive which removes the energy from the system. Thus it can be expected that such system may exhibit a sustained oscillation. Now as it is not a forced system, these oscillations arc called self excited oscillations or limit cycle. (8. 1)

8.3 Jump Resonance The phenomenon of jump resonance is seen only in case of non linear systems. This can be explained by considering the frequency response plots. The Fig. 8.1 shows frequency n.'Sponse plot for a linear system while the Fig. 8.2 shows frequency response plot for nonlinear system.

Consider a nonlinear system excited by sinusoidal input of constant amplitude. If the input frequency is increased then jump (or disrontinuity) occurs in the response amplitude. With decrease in frequency also, jump can be observed but at a different frequency. A nonlinear system is one which behaves qulte differently for various input functions. Consequently the logical design of a nonlinear system requires a complete description of the input signals. This dependence of the system behaviour on the actual input functions is demonstrated by the jump resonance phenomenon which is observed in certain closed loop systems with saturation.

Let us consider a nonlinear equation describing a certain system. M ~+ f=+ k1x+k2x3

Modem Control Theory

Phase Plane Method

Due to the presence of a nonlinear term k2 x 3, the resonant peak is bent towards the higher frequencies. As the input frequency is gradually increased from zero with input amplitude fixed, the measured response follows the curve through the points A, B and C. But at C, an increment in frequency results in a discontinuous jump down to the point D, after which with further increase in frequency, the rcsponsc curve follows through DE. If the frequency is decreased, the response follows the curve EDF with jump to B occurring at F and then move to A. For certain range of frequency the response function is double valued. For k, < 0, the resonant peak bends towards lower frequencies which is shown in the Fig. 8.4. similar Jump resonance takes place with the difference that there is upward jump when frequency is increased and downward jump when frequency is decreased.

Fig. 8.4 Jump resonance Tile overall curve shows the familiar hysteresis or jump resonance phenomenon. It is well known in nonlinear mechanics and is frequently observed in high gain servo systems. In such cases, the response is multivalued and depends not only on the present value of the input but also on the past history.

8.4 The Phase Plane Method The equation of a second order nonlinear system having free motion has the following form,

.. . . . y-h(y,y)y+g(y,y)y

The co-ordinate plane whose axes

.

correspond to dependent variable y(t) and its first derivative y(t) is called phase plane. In phase plane plot y(t) and

y(t) arc plotted in a two axes plane. The trace of the phase

plane plot as time t increases is called trnjcctory. The starting point of the trajectory depends on the initial conditions imposed on the system. For different sets of initial conditions, various trajectories can be plotted. The complete dynamic behaviour of the system for various initial conditions can be obtained from the trajectories plotted in phase plane. The dynamic performance and analysis of given second order system differential equation can be made based on destination point of trajectories. The method has limitation of its application restricted to second order as for higher order system equations, three or higher dimensional plane is needed which is not much convenient to construct and visualise. But transient response of second order system excited by step input can be studied by this method. This method is thus applicable to linear time functions and can not be applied to systems excited by sinusoidal signals. The phase plane method can be considered as a special case of state space. With the use of slate variables known as phase variables, the state of second order system can be defined.

Phase Plano Method

In phase plane analysis, the trajectories can be constructed analytically, graphically or experimentally. The analytical method is straight but not useful from practical point of view. The graphical methods are used when it is not possible to solve the given differential equation analytically. The graphical methods arc applicable to both linear and non linear equations.

8.6 Isocline Method for Construction of Phase Trajectory The isocline method i~ a graphical approach for determination of phase portrait. Consider the slate equation for a second order system.

f1("1·"2)

The point (x1,x2.' of the phase plane has with it associated slope of the trajectory except at singular point where the slope is indeterrniante. lsodines are the lines in the phase plane corresponding lo slopes of the phase portrait. In order to construct the phase trajectory, it is necessary to integrate the slope equation. This is very difficult except for few simple cases. We have, (~ ( x~.x2

)=

m1f1(x1.x2)

The above equation gives locus of all points in the phase plane where the slope of trajectory is m1. Such a locus is called isocline. TI1c direction of phase traiectroy at any point (x1,x2) can be obtained from the sign or ax1 and ax2 for small increment in at.

The equilibrium point of this system is origin of the phase plane. Now there are two cases viz. µ > 0 and µ < 0. The phase portraits for both these cases is shown in the Fig. 8.12. When µ > 0 and initial value of x1 [i.e. x1 (0)1 is large then the system response is damped. The amplitude of x1(t)[ .. y1(1)] decreases till the system enters the limit cycle. This is shown by the outer trajectory. For small initial values of xi' the damping is negative.

Fig. 8.12 The amplitude of x1(t)[=y1(t)] increases till the system stale enters the limit cycle which is shown by inner trajectory. The limit cycle is stable as the paths in its neighbourhood arc converging. The limit cycle for µ < 0 is unstable. With increase in order of the system, the complexity is involved in applying phase plane method. The method of phase trajectories is restricted normally lo second order systems and ii is special case of phase space defined for nth order system. ln case of lime invariant systems, the total phase-plane contains trajectories with only one curve passing through every point of the plane except for some critical points. Through these critical points either none of the trajectories or infinite number of trajectories pass. For lime varying systems, two or more trajectories may pass through a single point. The phase portrait then becomes complex and not easy to interpret. Hence the method of phase-plane is mostly applied lo second order systems having constant parameters with no or constant input. Some simple lime varying systems can be analysed by this method.

8.9 Different Types of Phase Portraits In this section. the phase portraits of some commonly known linear systems is presented. Thl'SC portraits can be used for analysis of piecewise linear systems.

Liapunov's Stability Analysis 9.1 Introduction

.

11'e state equation for a general time invariant system has the form x

=

f [x, u). If the

input u is constant then the equation will have form x = F(x). For this system, the points, at which derivetives of all state variables arc zero, arc the singular points. These singular point' are nothing but equilibrium points where the system stays if it is undisturbed when the system is placed at these points. The stability of such a system is defined in two different ways. If the input to the system is zero with arbitrary initial conditions, the resulting trajectory in phase-plane, discussed in earlier chapter, tends towards the equilibrium state. If U1e input to the system is provided then the stability is defined as for bounded input, the system output is also bounded. For linear systems with non-zero eigen values, there is only one equllibrium state and the behaviour of such systems about this equilibrium state totally determines the qualitative behaviour in the entire state space. In cruse of nonlinear systems, the behaviour for small deviations about the equilibrium point is different from that for large deviations. Hence local stability for such systems does not indicate the overall stability in the state space. Also the non-linear systems having multiple equilibrium states, the trajectories move from one equilibrium point and tend to other with time. Thus stability in case of non-linear system is always referred to equilibrium slate instead of global term stability which is the total stability of the system. Jn case of linear control systems, many of the stability criteria such as Routh's stability test. Nyquist stability criterion etc. arc available. But these cannot be applied for non-linear systems. The second method of Liapunov which is also called direct method of Liapunov is the most common method for obtaining the stability of non-linear systems. nus method is equally applicable to time varying systems. stability analysis of linear, time in variant systems and for solving quadratic optimal control problem.

If we consider a state x., for system with equation ; f (x, t) in such a way that ((•,~ ti e. 0 for all t then this x0 is called equilibrium state. For linear, time invariant systems having A non-singular, there is only one equilibrium state while there are one or more equilibrium states if A is singular. In case of non-linear systems as we have seen previously there are more than one equilibrium slates. The isolated equilibrium states that is isolated from each other can be shifted lo origin i.e, f(O, l) = 0 by properly shifting the coordinates. TilCSC equihbrium stales can be obtained from the solution oi equation f(x,,,. t) = 0. Now we will consider the stab!Uty analysis of equilibrium states at the origin. We "ill consider a spherical region of radius R about an equilibrium state x., such that

The region S(e) must be selected first and for each S(c), there must be a region S(ll) in such a way that the trajectories starting within S(o5) do not leave S(e) as time t progresses. There arc many types of stability definitions such as asymptotic stability, asymptotic stability in large. We will also see the definition of instability along with definitions of these types of stability.

Liapunov'sStabilityAnalysis

9.3 Asymptotic Stability An equilibrium state xe is said to be asymptotically stable if it is stable in the sense of Liapunov and every solution starting within S(o) converges without leaving S(t) to x, as t increases indefinitely. The asymptotic stability is more important than mere stability. The asymptotic stability is a local stability. Hence establishing asymptotic stability does not indicate the proper operation of the system. The size of the largest region of the asymptotic stability is required. This region is called domain of attraction which is part of state space where asymptotically stable trajectories originate.

9.4 Asymptotic Stability in the Large I( the asymptotic stability holds for all states that is all points in state space, from which trajectories originate, the equilibrium state is said to be asymptotically stable in the large. Alternatively we can say that the system is asymptotically stable in the large if it is asymptotically stable for every initial state regardless of how near or how far it is from the origin.

The equilibrium state Xe of the system is said to be asymptotically stable in the large if it is stable and if every solution converges to x0 as t increases indefinitely. The necessary condition for asymptotic stability is to be determined which is normally different. Practically it stability in large is that there must be one equilibrium state in the whole state space. In control system problems, asymptotic stability in large is required in the absence of which, the largest region of asymptotic stability is to be determined which is normally difficult. Practically, it is sufficient to get a region of asymptotic stability large enough so that no disturbance will exceed it.

9.5 Instability An equilibrium state "• is said lo be unstable if for some real number E > 0 and any real number Ii > 0, irrespective of how small it is, there is always a state "o in S(o) such that the trajectory starting at this slates leaves S(e).

9.6 Graphlcal Representation The graphical representation of stability, asymptotic stability and instability is shown in the Fig. 9.1 (a), (b) and (c) respectively. The region S(o) is binding the initial state "o and the region S(E) corresponds to the boundary for the trajectory starting at "o· The correct region of allowable initial conditions are not specified for the definitions of stability that we have seen previously. Thus these

Flg. 9.1 In Fig. 9.1 (c), the trajectory is leaving S(E) and shows that the equilibrium state is unstable. It can not be stated that the trajectory will go to infinity as it may approach a limit cycle outside the region S(e). In case of linear, time invariant system if it is unstable trajectories starting near the unstable equilibrium state will go to infinity which is not necessarily true in case of non linear systems. The definitions of stability that we have seen so for are not the only ones defining the stability or equilibrium state. There arc other ways of defining st4bility also. In classical control theory, the systems which arc asymptotically stable are called stable systems and those which are stable in the sense or Liapunov but are not asymptotically stable are called unstable.

9.10 Liapunov's Second Method A system which is vibrating is stable lf Its total energy is continuously decreasing. This indicates that the time derivative o( the total cneri,>y must be negative. The energy is decreased till an equilibrium state is reached. The total energy ts a positive definite function.

This foct obtained from classical mechanics theory is generalised in Liapunov's second method. If the system has an asymptotically stable equilibrium state then the stored t'nergy decays with increase in time till it attains minimum value at the equilibrium stale. But there is no simple way for defining an energy function. For purely mathematical system. This difficulty was overcome as Uapunov introduced Liapunov function method which is fictitious energy function. Llapunov functions depend on x1, x1, ... xn and I. It is given as F(x1, x2, .•• Xn• t) or as F(x, t). In Liapunov's second method, the sign behaviour of F(x, t) and its time derivative F(x, t) " dF(x, t)/dt gives us information about stability, asymptotic stabil.ity or instability of an equilibrium state without requiring to solve the equations directly to get the solution.

9.11 Llapunov's Stability Theorem Consider a scalar (unction V(x), where x is n vector and is positive definite, then the states x that satisfy V(x) C, where C is a positive constant, lie on a closed hyper surface in n dimensional stale space at least in the neighbourhood of origin. This is shown in the Fig. 9.2.

=

If V(x) is a positive definite function obtained for a given system such that its time derivative taken along the trajectory is always negative then V(x) becomes smaller and smaller In terms o( C and finally reduced to zero as x reduces to zero. This indicates asymptotic stability of the origin. Liapunov's main stability theorem is based on this and gives a sufficient condition for asymptotic stability.

9.12 Stability of Linear and Nonlinear Systems 1f the equilibrium state in case of linear, time invariant system is asymptotically stable locally then it is asymptotically stable in the large. But in case of a nonlinear system. the equilibrium state has to be asymptotically stable in the large for the state to· be locally asymptotically stable. Hence the asymptotic stability of the equilibrium state of linear, time invariant systems and those of nonlinear systems Is different, lf it is required to tc~l thr. asymptotic stability of any equilibrium state for a nonlinear system then the stability anruysis of linearised models of non-linear systems is totally insufficient. The nonlinear systems arc to be tested without making them linearized. There are various method based on Llapunov's second method such as Krasovskii's method

9-8

liapunov'sStabilityAnalysis

which can be used to test sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability of nonlinear systems. We shall study in detail Krasovskii's method for asymptotic stability test.

9.13 Construction of Liapunov's Functions for Nonlinear Systems by Krasovskli's Method Liapunov's direct method is a most powerful tool available for doing the stability analysis of nonlinear systems. The stability analysis by Liapunov's method includes determination of a positive definite function V(x) called Liapunov's function. But unfortunately there is no universal technique or method for selecting Liapunov's function which will be unique for a special problem. Some of the Liapunov's function will give better results than other functions, There are various techniques available for construction of Liapunov's functions. Similarly for a given function V(x), there is no general method which allows us to confirm that the function is positive definite. But if V(x) is in the quadratic form in x1's then Sylvester's theorem can be applied to test the positive definiteness of the function. If it is not possible to obtain the Liapunov's function of required type then it docs not indicate that the system is unstable. The theorems that we have seen so far just provides sufficient conditions for stability. The indication from the fact that Liapunov's function of required type is not obtained is that the attempt to establish the stability of the system is failed. Krasovskii's method gives a sufficient condition for the equilibrium state to be asymptotically stable. Consider the system described by following equation. x = f(x); f(O) = 0. The origin is a singular point.

Lei us consider Liapunov's function as, V = fT Pf Herc P is a symmetric positive definite matrix. Now,

then the equilibrium state is asymptotically

The Krasovskii's theorem is different from the normal lincari:zation technique. It is not limited to small departures from the equilibrium stale. The Liapunov function V(x) and V(x) arc expressed interms of f(x) or ~ rather than in terms of x, Krasovskii method gives sufficient condition for asymptotic stability of non-linear systems and necessary and sufficient condition in case of linear systems.

An equilibrium state of a non-linear system may be stable even if the conditions stated above are not satisfied. So comments on stability of non-linear systems cannot be vigoursly made by applying this method. Let us have an illustration of Krasovskii's method consider a second order non-linear system described by following equations

Let us consider that g1(0) We will also assume that

9.14 The Direct Method of Liapunov and the Linear System For linear systems, Liapunov's direct method proves to be a simple method for stability analysis, Use of Liapunov's method for linear systems is helpful in extending the thinking towards nonlinear systems. Consider linear system described by state equation x = Ax The linear system described by above equation is asymptotica.lly stable in the large at the origin if and only if for any symmetric, positive definite matrix Q there exists a symmetric positive definite matrix r which is the unique solution A Tp + PA = - Q. The proof of above theorem can be given. For this we will assume the symmetric positive definite matrix P exists which is the unique solution of the equation V(x) xT Px.

This is the contradiction as V(x) xTPx satisfies instability theorem. Hence the conditions for the positive definiteness of P arc necessary and sufficient for asymptotic stability of the system.
