Abstract :
The selection of an appropriate set of manipulated variables to control a set of specified outputs is an important aspect of MIMO system design. This paper details how genetic algorithms may be used to provide an automated optimisation procedure for the selection of the input-output pairings based upon the Relative Gain Array (RGA). Two examples are outlined to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy
