A design method for modified smith predictive control system to attenuate periodic disturbances

The modified Smith predictor is well known as an effective time-delay compensator for a plant with large time-delays, and several papers on the modified Smith predictor have been published. Recently, the parameterization of all stabilizing modified Smith predictors for minimum-phase time-delay plants is obtained by Yamada and Matsushima. In addition, Yamada et al. expanded the result by Yamada and Matsushima and proposed the parameterization of all stabilizing modified Smith predictors for non-minimum-phase time-delay plants. However, they do not examine a design method for modified Smith predictive control system using the parameterization of all stabilizing modified Smith predictors to achieve desirable control specification. In this paper, we propose a design method for modified Smith predictive control system to attenuate periodic disturbances which often appear real time-delay plants using the parameterization of all stabilizing modified Smith predictors.
