Task: Analyze Control Quality
Relationships
Main Description

This activity consists in evaluating the control quality of the created solutions for the control application. Control quality metrics can either quantify the transient performance or the steady state performance. A possible measure for transient performance is Peak Overshot (Compare R. C. Dorf and R. H. Bishop. Modern Control Systems. Addison Wesley, 1995.).

A possible steady-state control quality metric can be defined using the integral cost function of the tracking error e, denoting the difference between the desired plant behaviour yref and the actual plant behaviour y, at a given point in time t:
