Abstract

Cyclic control (CC) is concerned with systems comprised of multiple plants controlled by a single actuator and sensor. Such systems arise naturally in rotating machinery with actuators and sensors fixed in inertial space. This paper investigates the problem of reference tracking and disturbance rejection in CC systems and illustrates the results through the control of the fusing stage of a xerographic process.
