Multi-rate and/or non square systems and/or decentralised control

University of Sheffield Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering

In many chemical processes there are limitations on the sampling rates and the number of inputs and outputs may not match. This affects the structure of the control law as one ends up with a so called multi-rate or non-square system , for which conventional control design is not applicable. Read more
