In such cases the design becomes more cumbersome and the time delay appears in the denominator making it difficult to realize. In order to get simple realizable controllers approximations of plant model and time delays are done. This leads to controllers with non-optimal parameters. In this paper, a new approach for designing the controller by combining direct synthesis approach and system identification is presented. The controller is identified from the plant model and the desired closed-loop without the need for approximating the plant model and the time delay and ensures that the controller parameters are optimal. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. %K Closed-loop; Complex model; Controller designs; Controller parameter; Direct synthesis; Inverse identification; Plant model, Identification (control systems); Manufacture; Optimization; Technology, Time delay
