Tuning Rules for Proportional Resonant Controllers
In this brief, we propose a particular structure for resonant controllers and a tuning method of the Ziegler–Nichols type for their tuning. Performance criteria for resonant controllers are also defined. The effectiveness of the tuning rules is illustrated by their application and corresponding performance assessment in a test batch consisting of four representative classes of processes. The control performance is analyzed in detail for one particular example, shedding light on the virtues and limitations of the control structure and of the tuning method.
