Partitioning methods for global controllers
A procedure for partitioning a global (centralized) controller into interconnected decentralized subcontrollers is presented. It is shown that the controller partitioning problem is different than controller order reduction. An example is presented to demonstrate a procedure wherein an integrated flight/propulsion controller is partitioned into separate airframe and engine subcontrollers. Results show that the assembled partitioned subcontrollers closely match the response of the centralized controller in the frequency domain.
