Dynamic modeling and active control of flexible plate based on the input-output data

This paper studies the low-order dynamic modeling and active control of a flexible plate and provides experimental verification. First based on the input-output data of the system, the Markov parameters of the system are identified using the method of observer/Kalman filter identification (OKID). Then a low-order state-space model is built using the eigensystem realization algorithm (ERA). Finally, a linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller is designed based on the low-order state-space model. Experimental results have proved the effectiveness and feasibility of the research.
