The deadbeat control, also known as, finite time settling control is supposed to be effective exclusively in sampled data controls. In 1957, O. J. M. Smith proposed Posicast control to obtain the finite time settling response to a command input for continuous control systems. He mentioned in his paper the finite time settling response to a disturbance as well. His method is, however, impractical because inverse transfer functions of controlled objects would be required.The author has found out a new controller configuration with a delay element for continuous control systems, which has the finite time settling responses both to a step command input and to a step disturbance. This new method is named Continuous deadbeat Control (CdbC) and was published.This paper describes a design of CdbC. Conditions to realize controllers based on CdbC are shown, and the following is cleared. For a high order controlled object without unstable zeros, only one delay element is required in the controller independent of functions of a command and a disturbance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
