Our firm Robust Engineering Systems, LLC (referred to as RES going forward) developed a software named TAACSD Tool-Box (Transformation Allergic Approach Control Systems Design Tool-Box) which offers an innovative, new and novel, pure State Space MIMO based approach to design highly robust control systems much different from the current literature eigenvalue based MATLAB Control Systems Design Tool-Box designs being offered by the Mathworks company. The RES developed TAACSD Tool-Box, uses a US patent awarded (patent number 11, 815,862 awarded in November 2023) Transformation Allergic (TA) Approach. It does not use eigenvalues as state variable convergence measures but instead uses Transformation Allergic Indices, which are always real scalars. RES developed TAA CSD Tool-Box offers much improved robustness to various uncertainties/perturbations such as real parameter variations, unmodeled dynamics, and accommodates time varying perturbations as well as multiple equilibrium points and errors in guidance commands and initial conditions together. TAA CSD Tool-Box assumptions are much different from the MATLAB CSD Tool-Box. Application areas of TAA CSD Tool-Box include Aero and Space Systems, Electromechanical systems, Automotive and Robotics, Integrated Flight and Propulsion Control, Power/Energy Systems and Microgrid Stability and Control Systems with Communication Constraints and others.
