Details and Options
- FeedbackLinearize is also known as exact linearization.
- FeedbackLinearize will construct a linear system lsys from a nonlinear system asys in such a way that you can use linear control design techniques for the linear system lsys to control the nonlinear system asys.
- FeedbackLinearize returns a LinearizingTransformationData object that can be used to extract the properties needed for analysis and design based on feedback linearization.
- The transformed system tsys consists of a linear system lsys and possibly a residual system rsys with internal dynamics that need to be stable, but is otherwise not observable.
- Properties related to the transformed system include:
-
"LinearSystem" systems model lsys "ResidualSystem" systems model rsys "TransformedSystem" systems model tsys - By designing a stabilizing controller cs for lsys, the resulting closed-loop system will be stable, provided that the residual system rsys is stable.
- In order to deploy the controller for the original nonlinear system asys, you need to transform the controller cs to use the original variables.
- Properties related to transforming the controller and estimator to original coordinates:
-
{"OriginalSystemController",cs} controller cs in original coordinates {"OriginalSystemEstimator",es} estimator for and {"ClosedLoopSystem",cs} closed-loop system in original coordinates {"OriginalSystemFullController",cs} systems model of cs in original coordinates - Further detailed properties of feedback linearization are also available and can be used to deploy alternative simulations and implementations of controllers, estimators, etc.
- The system asys is connected with a feedback compensator, precompensator, and postcompensator to give a modified system , where is the modified input, is the state vector that consists of with possible additional compensator states, and is the modified output.
- The feedback compensator is essentially a transformation between and given by , where is the decoupling matrix.
- Compensator properties include:
-
"FeedbackCompensator" systems model from to "InverseFeedbackCompensator" systems model from to "InverseFeedbackTransformation" list of rules "DecouplingMatrix" matrix "PreCompensator" systems model from to "PostCompensator" systems model from to - To get an explicitly linear system lsys and a possible residual system rsys, you need to perform a state transformation .
