Abstract

The feasibility of using reduced-order models and reduced-order observers with eigenvalue/eigenvector assignment procedures is investigated. A review of spectral assignment synthesis procedures is presented. Then, a reduced-order model which retains essential system characteristics is formulated. A constant state feedback matrix which assigns desired closed loop eigenvalues and approximates specified closed loop eigenvectors is calculated for the reduced-order model. It is shown that the eigenvalue and eigenvector assignments made in the reduced order system are retained when the feedback matrix is implemented about the full order system. In addition, those modes and associated eigenvectors which are not included in the reduced-order model remain unchanged in the closed loop full-order system. The full state feedback design is then implemented by using a reduced-order observer. It is shown that the eigenvalue and eigenvector assignments of the closed loop full-order system remain unchanged when a reduced-order observer is used. The design procedure is illustrated by an actual design problem.
