1 SERBIAN JOURNAL OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING Vol 4 No June Mixed Method of Model Reduction for Uncertain Sytem N Selvaganean Abtract: A mixed method for reducing a higher order uncertain ytem to a table reduced order one i propoed Interval arithmetic i ued to contruct a generalized Routh table for determining the denominator polynomial of the reduced ytem The reduced numerator polynomial i obtained uing factor diviion method and the teady tate error i minimized uing gain correction factor The propoed method i illutrated uing a numerical example Keyword: Model Reduction Uncertain ytem Factor diviion Gain correction factor Introduction The analyi and deign of practical control ytem become complex when the order of the ytem increae Therefore to analyze uch ytem it i neceary to reduce it to a lower order ytem which i a ufficient repreentation of the higher order ytem In recent decade much effort ha been made in the field of model reduction for fixed ytem and everal method like: Aggregation method [] Pade approximation [] Routh approximation [] Moment matching technique [3] and L optimization technique [] have been propoed Among them Routh approximation technique ha been recognized a the mot powerful method becaue of it ability to yield table reduced model for table high-order ytem [] In general the practical ytem have uncertaintie about it parameter Thu practical ytem will have coefficient that may vary and it i repreented by interval Interval arithmetic uch a addition ubtraction multiplication and diviion are dicued in [3 5] In literature [ 3] the author preented model reduction technique for higher order uncertain ytem The limitation of the above method are dicued in [8] A generalized method for contructing the DrNSelvaganean ME PhD Lecturer Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering Pondicherry Engineering College Pondicherry 54 India n_elvag@rediffmailcom

2 N Selvaganean Routh table of interval polynomial i propoed in [4] which overcome ome of the limitation of [ 3] In thi paper the method propoed in [4 4] i integrated with factor diviion method [] for obtaining the table reduced order model Alo a gain correction factor i ued to improve the teady tate characteritic for interval ytem Problem Formulation Conider a higher order linear SISO uncertain ytem repreented by the tranfer function a N() G () = D() n c c + c c + c c + + cn c n G () = () n d d + d d + d d + + dn dn where ci c i i= n and di d i i= n are the interval coefficient of higher order numerator and denominator polynomial repectively The correponding k th order reduced model i Nk () R () = Dk () k r r + r r + r r + + rk r k R () = () k b b + b b + b b + + bk bk where ri r i i= k and bi b i i= k are the interval coefficient of lower order numerator and denominator polynomial repectively The problem i to reduce the ytem of form () to the ytem of the form () uch that the lower order ytem mimic the higher order one a cloely a poible Determination of reduced denominator Routh table i contructed for the denominator of the higher order ytem uing the algorithm propoed by Dolgin [4 4] The reduced denominator i obtained by direct truncation of the element in Routh table Conider the denominator polynomial of a higher order ytem
