+++ title = "HAC-HAC" author = ["Dehaeze Thomas"] draft = false +++ Tags : High-Authority Control/Low-Authority Control From (Preumont 2018): > The HAC/LAC approach consist of combining the two approached in a dual-loop control as shown in Figure [1](#figure--fig:hac-lac-control-architecture). The inner loop uses a set of collocated actuator/sensor pairs for decentralized active damping with guaranteed stability ; the outer loop consists of a non-collocated HAC based on a model of the actively damped structure. This approach has the following advantages: > > - The active damping extends outside the bandwidth of the HAC and reduces the settling time of the modes which are outsite the bandwidth > - The active damping makes it easier to gain-stabilize the modes outside the bandwidth of the output loop (improved gain margin) > - The larger damping of the modes within the controller bandwidth makes them more robust to the parmetric uncertainty (improved phase margin) {{< figure src="/ox-hugo/hac_lac_control_architecture.png" caption="Figure 1: HAC-LAC Control Architecture" >}} Nice papers: - (Williams and Antsaklis 1989) - (Aubrun 1980) ## Bibliography {#bibliography}
