Stacking Integrators Without Sacrificing the Overshoot in Reset Control Systems

According to the well-known loop-shaping control design approach, the steady-state precision of control systems can be improved by stacking integrators. However, due to the waterbed effect in linear control systems, such an action will worsen the transient response by increasing overshoot and creating wind-up problems. This paper presents a new architecture for rest control systems that can significantly decrease the overshoot and create a no-overshoot performance even in presence of stacked integrators. The steady-state analysis of the proposed system will also show that improved precision expected due to stacked integrators can be achieved as well. A numerical simulation study is presented to verify the results and the tuning guide presented.
