An automatic tuner with short experiment and probabilistic plant parameterization

Soltesz, Kristian LU orcid ; Mercader, Pedro and Baños, Alfonso (2017) In International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control 27(11). p.1857-1873
Abstract
A novel automatic tuning strategy is proposed. It is based on an experiment of very short duration, followed by simultaneous identification of LTI model parameters and an estimate of their error covariance. The parametric uncertainty model is subsequently exploited to design linear controllers with magnitude bounds on some closed-loop transfer function of interest, such as the sensitivity function. The method is demonstrated through industrially relevant examples. Robustness is enforced through probabilistic constraints on the H∞ norms of the sensitivity function, while minimizing load disturbance integral error (IE) to ensure performance. To demonstrate the strength of the proposed method, identification for the mentioned examples is... (More)
