Summary:
This paper presents a novel error-feedback practical solution for real-time implementation of nonlinear output regulation. Sufficient and necessary conditions for both state- and error-feedback output regulation have been established for linear and nonlinear systems several decades ago. In their most general form, these solutions require solving a set of nonlinear partial differential equations, which may be hard or even impossible to solve analytically. In recent years, a methodology for dynamic calculation of the mappings required for state-feedback regulation has been put forward; following the latter, an error-feedback extension is hereby provided which, when combined with design conditions in the form of linear matrix inequalities, becomes suitable for real-time setups. Real-time results are presented for a nonlinear twin rotor MIMO system. Issues concerning the implementation as well as the solutions adopted, are discussed.
