Abstract

A multimodel scheme is designed for a tunnel-diode circuit. It improves the transient response in a transition or switching from a system equilibrium point to another one. Each model is obtained by a linearization of the circuit near an equilibrium point. Moreover, each of these models can be described as a combination of two transfer functions describing the plant behavior near two different nominal equilibrium points. The scheme chooses the model with the best tracking performance in order to generate the control law. Some simulations show the usefulness of this scheme
