Abstract

During the development of algebraic controller design in a special ring for time delay systems (TDSs) a problem of a suitable free controller parameters setting appeared. The first author of this contribution recently suggested a natural idea of placing the dominant characteristic numbers (poles) and zeros of the infinite-dimensional feedback control system on the basis of the desired overshoot for a simple finite-dimensional matching model and shifting of the rest of the spectrum. However, the original procedure called the Pole-Placement Shifting based controller tuning Algorithm (PPSA) was not developed and described entirely well. The aim of this paper is to revise the idea of the PPSA and suggest a possible ways how to improve or extend the algorithm. A concise illustrative example is attached to clarify the procedure for the reader as well.
