Abstract

Abstract A sampled-data I-PD control apparatus controls an interference multi-input/multi-output process in accordance with an I-PD action. The apparatus comprises an identification signal generator (28) for superposing persistently exciting identification signals on control variables (inputs) or the process (10), an identifying circuit (32) for identifying a pulse transfer function of the process (10) in accordance with the control variables of the process (10) and controlled variables (outputs) of the process (10), an S-transfer function calculator (34) for transforming the identified pulse transfer function to an S-transfer function, and a tuning circuit (36) for matching the S-transfer function with that of a process model and for tuning sampled-data I-PD control parameters in accordance with a matching result.
