Direct Design of a Model Following Anti-Windup Control System Based on Youla Parametrization

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the anti-windup control system design based on Youla parametrization. We derive sufficient conditions for the stability and the model following performance of the present anti-windup control system in terms of scaled H^∞ conditions. Furthermore, based on these conditions, we provide a direct design method of the anti-windup controller achieving the good model following performance even when the control input is saturated. A numerical example shows the applicability of the proposed design method.
