Title: Robust Parameter Design of Control Systems
Author(s): Roshan Joseph Vengazhiyil*+

Abstract:

When there exists strong noise factors in the process, robust parameter design alone may not be effective and a control strategy can be used to compensate for the effect of noise. In this article, a parameter design methodology in the presence of a feed-forward control is developed. In particular, performance measures for evaluating control factor settings in measurement systems, simple response systems, and multiple target systems are developed. Strategies for the design and analysis of experiments are discussed. The approach is illustrated using an example on gold plating.
