Abstract :
A nonlinear feedback controller is designed on the basis of a truncated Volterra series representation of the process model, the necessary parameters of which can be obtained via suitable experiments. A simple example demonstrates the increased range and improved performance of the nonlinear controller compared to two linear controllers.
