摘要：AbstractIn this paper a new multi-objective approach for loop pairing in multi-input/multi-output processes is studied. Each controller structure of proposed input-output pairing is considered as a possible design concept. Under the meaningful objective space, defined by the control engineer, the concepts are compared and a final controller with a given trade-off is chosen. By means of an example, the paper establishes several findings: first, the controller type can be relevant when deciding on possible pairings and second, it is even more relevant the objectives chosen by the designer and his/her preferences. These findings point to multi-objective approach pairing as a powerful and promising technique.
