Study Notes
Dynamic Systems in State-Space Representation
- A matrix can represent various concepts; in computer science, it serves as a 2D array, often used to represent pixel data in images, where each element indicates grayscale levels.
- In engineering, a matrix A maps an input vector x to an output vector y, detailing linear transformations.
- Matrix dimensions are categorized as rectangular (n ≠ m), fat (n > m), skinny (n < m), or square (n = m).
State-space Representation of Dynamic Systems
- An n-th order linear dynamic system can be described via a transfer function, considering two cases based on direct feedthrough: normal (m < n, no direct feedthrough) or rarer cases (m = n, direct feedthrough).
- State-space equations consist of a system matrix A, input vector b, output vector cT, and potentially a feedthrough scalar d (usually zero when m < n).
Transfer Function to State-space Conversion
- There is a direct method to create state equations from transfer functions in controllable canonical form, establishing a 1:1 relationship.
- For systems with feedthrough, the equations accommodate additional terms that correspond to a different state-space representation.
MATLAB for State-Space Systems
- The
ss
function in MATLAB generates state-space representations by invoking matrices A, b, c, and d. - Conversion functions such as
tf2ss
andss2tf
allow transitions between transfer function forms and state-space gear. - The
minreal
function computes a minimum realization of a dynamic system, optimizing representation.
Calculating State Vector Evolution
- Determining how the state vector x(t) evolves over time involves integration with respect to the initial state x(0) and input u(t) to establish the system output y(t) via the output equation.
State-Space Control via Pole Placement
- Controller parameters are derived by adjusting the system matrix A through state feedback, replacing the manipulated variable with a reference variable w.
- Specific pole placement allows control over system dynamics, with feedback mechanisms enabling adjustment of poles in the characteristic equation of the closed loop.
- The desired characteristic equation for the closed loop is expressed through the determinant sI - (A - bkT), indicating that n poles can be set with k degrees of freedom.
