Abstract

Modern mechatronic systems are often equipped with a set of redundant actuators due to different operating points and high reliability requirements. One possibility to deal with such systems incorporates a separation between the control task and the distribution of the control effort among the actuators (so-called control allocation). In case of a linear plant model a factorization of the input matrix has to be carried out. The relationship between factorizations can be described by means of invertible transformation matrices. This work investigates the impact of factorization on the computation of generalized inverses and their usage for control allocation. Based on these results a new method for generating generalized inverses, which allow a more effective usage of the available actuators, is developed.
