Design of decoupled PI controller for two-by-two systems

Åström, Karl Johan LU ; Johansson, Karl Henrik LU and Wang, Q.G. (2002) In IEE Proceedings: Control Theory and Applications 149(1). p.74-81
Abstract
The design of PI controllers for systems with interacting loops is discussed. It is advantageous to deal with the interaction at the loop level, because supervisory control seldom has sufficient bandwidth. A new scheme based on modified scalar PI design and static decoupling is developed, in which the frequency characteristic of the coupling between the lower-level loops is taken into account. This leads to a design method emphasising the trade-off between the individual loop performances and the interaction indices introduced in the paper. The controller is easily implemented, due to its simple configuration based on standard components. A useful observation is that the interaction can be reduced substantially by using set-point...
