Abstract

This paper deals with estimation of interval controls for interval Linear Time Invariant (LTI) plants using pole placement technique. Generally, the parameters associated with LTI plant system are assumed to be crisp values, but due to the occurrence of error in experimentation, measurement or due to maintenance induced errors, the parameters are imprecise. As such, the LTI problem reduces to interval LTI. The pole placement problem is then reduced to interval algebraic equation viz. interval Diophantine equation using proper transfer function. Further, the interval Diophantine equation is transformed to Interval System of Linear Equations (ISLE) viz. interval Sylvester matrix equation. Initially, using interval arithmetic an interval algebraic approach has been applied to solve the ISLE for computing non-negative or non-positive controls. Then, another approach using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is proposed for computing the interval controls. Further, algorithms based on sign function and ANN procedures have been discussed. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed algorithms has been verified using different order interval plants.
