Mixed Method of Model Reduction for Uncertain Systems

A mixed method for reducing a higher order uncertain system to a stable reduced order one is proposed. Interval arithmetic is used to construct a generalized Routh table for determining the denominator polynomial of the reduced system. The reduced numerator polynomial is obtained using factor division method and the steady state error is minimized using gain correction factor. The proposed method is illustrated using a numerical example.
