  2. State-space representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State-space_representation

    The state space or phase space is the geometric space in which the axes are the state variables. The system state can be represented as a vector, the state vector. If the dynamical system is linear, time-invariant, and finite-dimensional, then the differential and algebraic equations may be written in matrix form.

  3. Controllability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controllability

    Complete state controllability (or simply controllability if no other context is given) describes the ability of an external input (the vector of control variables) to move the internal state of a system from any initial state to any final state in a finite time interval. [1]: 737

  4. Dependability state model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependability_state_model

    The asymptotic availability, i.e. availability over a long period, of the system is equal to the probability that the model is in state 1 or state 2. This is calculated by making a set of linear equations of the state transition and solving the linear system. The matrix is constructed with a row for each state.

  5. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    In contrast to the frequency domain analysis of the classical control theory, modern control theory utilizes the time-domain state space representation, [citation needed] a mathematical model of a physical system as a set of input, output and state variables related by first-order differential equations. To abstract from the number of inputs ...

  6. State observer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_observer

    In control theory, a state observer, state estimator, or Luenberger observer is a system that provides an estimate of the internal state of a given real system, from measurements of the input and output of the real system. It is typically computer-implemented, and provides the basis of many practical applications.

  7. Model predictive control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_predictive_control

    Model predictive control (MPC) is an advanced method of process control that is used to control a process while satisfying a set of constraints. It has been in use in the process industries in chemical plants and oil refineries since the 1980s.

  8. Linear parameter-varying control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_parameter-varying...

    It is an approach for the control of non-linear systems that uses a family of linear controllers, each of which provides satisfactory control for a different operating point of the system. One or more observable variables, called the scheduling variables , are used to determine the current operating region of the system and to enable the ...

  9. Sliding mode control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliding_mode_control

    The state-feedback control law is not a continuous function of time. Instead, it can switch from one continuous structure to another based on the current position in the state space. Hence, sliding mode control is a variable structure control method. The multiple control structures are designed so that trajectories always move toward an ...
