﻿1
00:00:00,530 --> 00:00:10,970
‫Now, we discussed that there were several NPC techniques available, such as basic NPC for linear time

2
00:00:10,970 --> 00:00:21,500
‫invariant systems, and we used the abbreviation LTI, then robust NPC and non-linear NPC.

3
00:00:21,710 --> 00:00:29,180
‫And what we wanted to do, we wanted to use the first one because it was the easiest to implement in

4
00:00:29,180 --> 00:00:29,720
‫the system.

5
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:39,500
‫However, this system here that we had, we couldn't use our basic NPC for that because this formulation

6
00:00:39,500 --> 00:00:43,270
‫here wasn't in the LTI form.

7
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:51,770
‫And so to achieve that LTI form, we made a small your angle approximation because we discussed that

8
00:00:51,770 --> 00:01:01,970
‫if we go from one lane to another at, let's say, 20 meters per second, let's say like that, then

9
00:01:01,970 --> 00:01:05,360
‫our your angle would be very small.

10
00:01:05,660 --> 00:01:13,270
‫And we could just assume the following this final row here instead of writing it like this.

11
00:01:13,580 --> 00:01:22,460
‫Thanks to the small you angle approximation, we could rewrite it like this big white dot equals small

12
00:01:22,460 --> 00:01:27,290
‫white dot plus small x dot and pesi.

13
00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:32,040
‫That allowed us to rewrite our state based system in the following form.

14
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:37,790
‫This was the system for the states and then we wanted to extract certain states.

15
00:01:37,940 --> 00:01:45,410
‫And so we had another equation and that equation was for the outputs of the system.

16
00:01:45,410 --> 00:01:54,230
‫And the outputs, at least in our case, were only this states that we had to compare to the reference

17
00:01:54,230 --> 00:01:54,830
‫values.

18
00:01:55,190 --> 00:02:07,550
‫And then what we did, we defined for matrices, Matrix A, Matrix B, Matrix C, and Matrix D, and

19
00:02:07,550 --> 00:02:10,850
‫these are common matrices in the states based equations.

20
00:02:11,150 --> 00:02:18,530
‫And because of the smaller, you wangel assumption, we were able to have these matrices, these four

21
00:02:18,530 --> 00:02:20,270
‫matrices constant.

22
00:02:20,420 --> 00:02:32,420
‫And when these four matrices are constant, then our system is in the LTI form and we can use the basic

23
00:02:32,420 --> 00:02:43,040
‫NPC strategy and this entire thing here, these two systems of equations could be packaged in this generic

24
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:43,510
‫form.

25
00:02:43,850 --> 00:02:53,150
‫And remember the state vector X, the time derivative of the state vector X dot the system input vector

26
00:02:53,780 --> 00:03:01,550
‫you and the output vector Y, they are all a function of time around.

27
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:02,930
‫You can see it here.

28
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,080
‫They are all a function of time.
