  • Apparatus and method for model-based control
    Patent number: 7653445
    Abstract: Various methods and systems for the parametric control of a process include representing the process with a process model used to generate future predictions of a process variable. In one embodiment, the process exhibits integrating behavior that is represented by a non-integrating process model. In another embodiment, an inverse of the model is filtered using a filter that includes a lead time constant that is selected to minimize a steady state error of the predicted process variable. In yet another embodiment, an array of output model values is revised or reindexed in response to a change in a time-varying parameter related to the process.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 13, 2007
    Date of Patent: January 26, 2010
    Assignee: ControlSoft, Inc.
    Inventors: Tien-Li Chia, Irving Lefkowitz, Coleman B. Brosilow, Alireza Haji-Valizadeh, Shahid Parvez, John T. Nagle

  • Multi-resolution controller
    Patent number: 7149591
    Abstract: A method for producing a control output is described. The method includes identifying an error signal and decomposing the error signal into a plurality of signal components. The signal components are determined based on a plurality of orthogonal functions representing multi-resolution decomposition properties. The method further includes transforming each signal component. The transformed signal components are summed to determine a control signal.
