It is well-known that for a class of minimum-phase relative degree one linear-time-invariant (LTI) systems, with a unit feedback control structure, overshoot necessarily happens if the plant transfer function has poles at origin or unstable poles. This work aims to overcome this overshoot performance limitation (OPL) by using a novel reset controller, which has a generalized first order reset element (GFORE) structure. By tuning parameters of this reset controller carefully, the non-overshoot performance can be ensured. Furthermore, the implementation of the proposed reset controller with a high-pass filter is provided. Parameter tuning guidelines are also provided and, finally, the proposed design is verified with a simulation example. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
