Complexity Mitigation By Active Control Applied to Linear Dynamic Systems

Abstract The Complexity Mitigation by Active Control methodology is described and its stability demonstrated in this paper. The concept behind this methodology involves the treatment of model complexities as disturbances, the time-domain behavior of which can be captured in a dynamic model that is used to develop control commands that cancel or minimize the effects of the time variations of linear dynamic system complexities. The method is illustrated on two linear dynamic systems with simulation results presented.
