Zur Kombination von differenzieller Flachheit und Backstepping für die Trajektorienfolgeregelung eines Diffusions-Konvektions-Reaktionssystems = On the combination of differential flatness and backstepping for the tracking control of a diffusion-convection-reaction system

The combination of flatness-based feedforward control and backstepping state feedback control is considered for the solution of a tracking control problem for a boundary controlled diffusion-convection-reaction system with cubic nonlinearity. The control task thereby concerns the realization of a finite-time transition from an initial operating profile to a final operating profile along a desired output trajectory. Besides the theoretical analysis, the tracking performance of the closed-loop distributed-parameter system is evaluated in simulation studies, which confirm the applicability of the proposed approach.
