An almost Anti-Windup scheme for plants with magnitude, rate and curvature saturation

We address the anti-windup augmentation problem for plants with saturations on the magnitude, rate and curvature of the control input. To this aim, given an unconstrained closed-loop, we generate a slightly modified strictly proper controller for which the derivatives of the control signal are available and we solve the anti-windup problem for this modified control scheme (namely, an almost anti-windup for the original closed-loop). Based on this “almost” approach, we revisit an existing Model Recovery anti-windup solution for rate and magnitude saturated plants and then we extend the results to the case of rate, magnitude and curvature saturation, by providing a Model Recovery solution to this additional problem. An example illustrates the peculiarities and the effectiveness of the proposed solutions.
