Section 7.1 The Feature of Integrating Systems The transfer function Q(s) is in fact the IMC controller. Then the transfer matrix H(s) becomes H(s) = G(s)Q(s) [1 − G(s)Q(s)]G(s) Q(s) −G(s)Q(s) Since G(s) is not stable, the stability of Q(s) cannot guarantee the stability of the closed-loop system.

Section 7.1 The Feature of Integrating Systems Proof. Necessity is obvious.Consider sufficiency.Assume that the two conditions hold.It remains to show that G(s)Q(s)is stable.If G(s)Q(s)is unstable,1-G(s)Q(s)is unstable,which implies that [1-G(s)Q(s)]G(s)must be unstable.This contradicts the assumption. The conclusion may not be applicable to other structures. Consider the IMC structure shown in Figure 4口,+回,424生,定9QC Zhang.W.D..CRC Press.2011 Version 1.0 6/79

Section 7.1 The Feature of Integrating Systems When the model is exact,the system is open-loop for G(s)and Q(s).Since G(s)is unstable and G(s)Q(s)is stable,there must exist closed RHP zero-pole cancellation between G(s)and Q(s). In this case,the closed-loop system is not internally stable Consequently,the IMC structure cannot be used for the control of integrating plants 4口,+@,4定4定90C Zhang.W.D..CRC Press.2011 Version 1.0 7/79

Section 7.1 The Feature of Integrating Systems Steady-state Performance Consider the first-order integrating plant: G(s) = K s e −θs where K is the gain, θ is the time delay. Assume that the disturbance at the plant input is d 0 (s) = 1/s. The effect of d 0 (s) on the system output can be equivalent to that of a disturbance d(s) at the plant output: d(s) = d 0 (s)G(s) = K s 2 e −θs It is seen that the system is in fact of Type 2.
