Optimal Control for Aperiodic Dual-Rate Systems With Time-Varying Delays. Sensors 2018, 18, 1491, doi:10.3390/s1805149110.3390/s18051491https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/117424In this work, we consider a dual-rate scenario with slow input and fast output. Our objective is the maximization of the decay rate of the system through the suitable choice of the n-input signals between two measures (periodic sampling) and their times of application. The optimization algorithm is extended for time-varying delays in order to make possible its implementation in networked control systems. We provide experimental results in an air levitation system to verify the validity of the algorithm in a real plant.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/journal article1424-8220https://doi.org/10.3390/s18051491https://www.mdpi.com/1424-8220/18/5/1491open access62-5681.5004.9Multi-rate systemsOptimizationAperiodic controlTime-varying delayAir levitation systemCiencias33 Ciencias Tecnológicas
