Parametric design method for partial eigenstructure assignment of second-order linear systems via observer-based state feedback.

In this article, a parametric method of observer-based partial eigenstrunt in second-order linear time-invariant (LTI) systems is explored. First, an observer is constructed to approximate the full sate vector when the entire state vector is not available for measurement. Meanwhile, the separation principle of the first-order linear systems is extended to second-order linear systems. Second, by partitioning the system matrix of the open-loop system into two parts, the satisfactory and unsatisfactory eigenstructures are selected. On the premise of retaining the satisfactory part in the open-loop system, the unsatisfactory eigenstructure assignment problem can be converted into the solutions of a type of generalized Sylvester equations (GSE). Third, by introducing a group of arbitrary parameters, complete parametric expressions of the proportional plus derivative (PD) state feedback controller can be obtained. The main advantage of the proposed method is that it provides all the design degrees of freedom and reduces the design complexity of the controller. Finally, the correctness of the proposed method is verified by two examples and simulation results. Using the degrees of freedom of the parameters, the gain matrices are optimized through the optimization index provided by the optimization function, and better performance is obtained.
