Abstract

The stability of zeros plays an important role in design of feedback control systems, in particular in the design of model reference adaptive control systems. When a continuous-time linear plant is discretized by use of a zero-order hold and a sampler, the stability of zeros is not necessarily preserved. This seminar treats the stability conditions which assure that the zeros of the discrete-time systems are stable for sufficiently small sampling periods.
