Description
Summary:The present paper develops recursive algorithms to track shifts in the resonance frequency of linear systems in real time. To date, automatic resonance tracking has been limited to non-model-based approaches, which rely solely on the phase difference between a specific input and output of the system. Instead, we propose a transformation of the system into a complex-valued representation, which allows us to abstract the resonance shifts as an exogenous disturbance acting on the excitation frequency, perturbing the excitation frequency from the natural frequency of the plant. We then discuss the resonance tracking task in two parts: recursively identifying the frequency disturbance and incorporating an update of the excitation frequency in the algorithm. The complex representation of the system simplifies the design of resonance tracking algorithms due to the applicability of well-established techniques. We discuss the stability of the proposed scheme, even in cases that seriously challenge current phase-based approaches, such as nonmonotonic phase differences and multiple-input multiple-output systems. Numerical simulations further demonstrate the performance of the proposed resonance tracking scheme.
