METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING A COMPONENT BY FEED-FORWARD CLOSED-LOOP CONTROLLER STATE MODIFICATION

摘要

An apparatus (10) comprises a feed-forward arrangement (16) and a closed-loop controller (18). The feed-forward arrangement (16) is configured to determine a change of a system, the system change being independent of an output of a component (12) of the system. The feed-forward arrangement (16) is further configured to generate a feed-forward signal representative of the system change. The controller (18) is configured to modify a state of the controller (13) in response to the feed-forward signal and to perform closed-loop control of the component (12) based on its modified state. An associated method is disclosed.
