Abstract

A new method is proposed to implement gain-scheduled controllers for nonlinear plants. Given a family of linear feedback controllers designed for linearizations of a nonlinear plant about constant operating points, a nonlinear gain-scheduled controller is derived that preserves the input-output properties of the linear closed loop systems locally, about each equilibrium point. The key procedures in the proposed method are to provide integral action at the inputs to the plant and differentiate some of the measured outputs before they are fed back to the scheduled controller. For a fairly general class of systems, the nonlinear gain-scheduled controllers are easy to obtain, and their structure is similar to that of the original linear controllers.
