Maximum of absolute value of control error: Should be small or large? Mean of absolute value of control error: (Almost the same as the popular IAE index – Integral of Absolute value of control Error.) Should be small or large? Mean of absolute value of time-derivative of control signal: (Inspired by optimal control, e.g. The students will implement this system from scratch in LabVIEW.ĥ Some performance indexes of control systems
