Multi-model decoupled generic model control

The control performance of generic model control (Lee and Sullivan, 1988) using steady-state models (Cott et al., 1989) to control distributed parameter systems can be significantly undermined by the lack of appropriate dynamic information. A decoupling strategy has been integrated into the GMC framework in order to compensate for dynamic mismatch. The approach, called the multi-model decoupler, is based upon using a separate model inverse for the calculation of each manipulated variable. The additional model inputs provide the extra degrees of freedom that allow for dynamic compensation.
