Abstract

The real-time implementation of a controller typically introduces artefacts like delay and jitters that have not been considered at the design stage. As a consequence, the system behaves in a non-periodic manner, and the real performance is degraded with respect to the expected response. This paper proposes a hybrid task model to reduce the impact of the scheduling on the control performance. For a large batch of typical plants, we analyze how sensitive the control system is to jitter when the sampling rate is slow or fast compared to the bandwidth of the system.
