Abstract

© 2019 European Control Association In this work, a novel approach based on incremental state models is proposed for the modeling and control of multivariable delayed systems with colored noise. One of the key features of the new approach is that the proposed incremental state model compared with the non-incremental one, solves the problem of computing the target state in a natural way, since for a desired output, a zero incremental state can be taken as an objective. Moreover, the control action in an incremental form is equivalent to introduce an integral action, thereby cancelling the steady state errors, even in presence of disturbances. An optimal Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) control, based on the incremental model, is proposed and a Kalman filter is used to obtain the estimated state. Thus, another advantage of the proposed method is minimizing the output variance. Illustrative examples are chosen to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2026-04-25:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 6.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 6 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 1.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 1 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:
