Nonundershooting linear multivariable tracking controllers

Abstract

We consider the use of linear multivariable state feedback control to achieve a nonundershooting step response. The recently introduced nonovershooting linear state feedback controller design method of Schmid and Ntogramatzidis (2010) is here modified to yield a step response that is nonundershooting. The design method is applicable to square and non-square systems, minimum and nonminimum phase systems, and also strictly proper and bi-proper systems. © 2011 IFAC.
