We introduce generalized Fiedler pencil with repetition(GFPR) for an n x n rational matrix function G(?) relative to a realization of G(?). We show that a GFPR is a linearization of G(?) when the realization of G(?) is minimal and describe recovery of eigenvectors of G(?) from those of the GFPRs. In fact, we show that a GFPR allows operation-free recovery of eigenvectors of G(?). We describe construction of a symmetric GFPR when G(?) is symmetric. We also construct GFPR for the Rosenbrock system matrix S(?) associated with an linear time-invariant (LTI) state-space system and show that the GFPR are Rosenbrock linearizations of S(?). We also describe recovery of eigenvectors of S(?) from those of the GFPR for S(?). Finally, We analyze operation-free Symmetric/self-adjoint structure Fiedler pencils of system matrix S(?) and rational matrix G(?). We show that structure pencils are linearizations of G(?).

For a self-adjoint rational matrix function, not necessarily analytic at infinity, the existence of a right (symmetric) spectral factorisation is described in terms of a given left spectral factorisation. The formula for the right spectral factor is given in terms of the formula for the given left spectral factor. All formulas are based on a special realisation of a rational matrix function, which is different from ones that have been used before.

In this paper, an improved method of rational approximation is presented for evaluating the irrational matrix function f(A), where A is a square matrix and f(s) is a scalar irrational function which is analytic on the spectrum of A. The improvement in the accuracy of the approximation off (A) by a rational matrix function is achieved by using the multipoint Pade approximants to f(s). An application example to model conversion involving the evaluations of the matrix exponential exp (AT) and the matrix logarithm ln(F) is provided to illustrate the superiority of the method.

Gram matrix is an important tool in system analysis and design as it provides a description of the input-output behavior for system; its partial derivative matrix is often required in some numerical algorithms. It is essential to study computation of these matrices. Analytical methods only work in some special circumstances; for example, the system matrix is diagonal matrix or Jordan matrix. In most cases, numerical integration method is needed, but there are two problems when compute using traditional numerical integration method. One is low accuracy: as high accuracy requires extremely small integration step, it will result in large amount of computation; and another is stability and stiffness issues caused by the dependence on the property of system matrix. In order to overcome these problems, this paper proposes an efficient numerical method based on the key idea of precise integration method (PIM) for the Gram matrix and its partial derivative of linear time-invariant systems. Since matrix inverse operation is not required in this method, it can be used with high precision no matter the system is normal or singular. The specific calculation algorithm and block diagram are also given. Finally, numerical examples are given to demonstrate the correctness and validity of this method.

AbstractThis is a continuation (Part II) of our previous paper [19]. In this paper we present a simple method of the fractional-order value calculation of the fractional-order discrete integration element. We assume that the input and output signals are known. The linear time-invariant fractional-order difference equation is reduced to the polynomial in a variable ν with coefficients depending on the measured input and output signal values. One should solve linear algebraic equation or find roots of a polynomial. This simple mathematical problem complicates when the measured output signal contains a noise. Then, the polynomial roots are unsettled because they are very sensitive to coefficients variability. In the paper we show that the discrete integrator fractional-order is very stiff due to the degree of the polynomial. The minimal number of samples guaranteeing the correct order is evaluated. The investigations are supported by a numerical example.

It is well known that linear time-invariant controllers fail to provide desired robustness margins (e.g. gain margin, phase margin) for plants with non-minimum phase zeros. Attempts have been made in literature to alleviate this problem using high-frequency periodic controllers. But because of high frequency in nature, real-time implementation of these controllers is very challenging. In fact, no practical applications of such controllers for multivariable plants have been reported in literature till date. This article considers a laboratory-based, two-input–two-output, quadruple-tank process with a non-minimum phase zero for real-time implementation of the above periodic controller. To design the controller, first, a minimal pre-compensator is used to decouple the plant in open loop. Then the resulting single-input–single-output units are compensated using periodic controllers. It is shown through simulations and real-time experiments that owing to arbitrary loop-zero placement capability of periodic controllers, the above decoupled periodic control scheme provides much improved robustness against multi-channel output gain variations as compared to its linear time-invariant counterpart. It is also shown that in spite of this improved robustness, the nominal performances such as tracking and disturbance attenuation remain almost the same. A comparison with [Formula: see text]-linear time-invariant controllers is also carried out to show superiority of the proposed scheme.
