2x2 Individual Channel Design MATLAB ® Toolbox

In this paper a novel software for analysis and design of multivariable 2x2 control systems is presented. The 2x2 Individual Channel Design MATLAB^®Toolbox is a valuable aid for analysing and designing multivariable control systems under the framework of the Multivariable Structure Function (MSF) and Individual Channel Design (ICD). Given a set of specifications for a 2-input 2-output multivariable control system the appropriate use of the toolbox can lead to successful and robust controllers. The process is based on an iterative procedure. Closed loop simulations (in SIMULINK^®) are included so results can be tested. Final stability margins and robustness measures are also assessed. A design example is included for completeness. The development of the general m x m case is in progress.
