This paper studies the preview control problem for continuous-time control systems. A design method for an optimal preview controller is presented, when the desired tracking and disturbance are piecewise-continuously differentiable functions. Applying the same techniques as for optimal control in linear quadratic optimal control, we derive a type-one servomechanism with both desired tracking preview and disturbance preview compensation. A proof is presented that if the original system is stabilizable and detectable, the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable. We also design a full-dimensional state observer for the considered system. Finally, numerical simulations show the efficiency of the controller.

Experience Report: Real-Time control systems can be difficult to analyze due to the mixture of discrete-time and continuous-time dynamics. This difficulty is particularly pronounced if the timing is non-periodic, e.g., due to network or execution effects. Still, most control loops behave similar to a purely continuous-time system disturbed by a small discretization error, which is exploited by Bak and Johnson (2015) in the method of Continuization. This paper uncovers limitations of that work and presents an extension, First-Order Continuization, based on a new formal framework that recovers previous results and eases future development.
