When considering these types of systems in a classical centralized fashion, they have a high number of input/output signals on one hand, and usually a sparse structure on the other. While the method of loop-shaping in classical control is well-established, the notion of spatially distributed systems makes it possible to extend frequency domain loop shaping to spatial frequencies and to include weighting filters with spatio-temporal dynamics. By using a Fourier transform, controller synthesis can be done for each spatial frequency at a time. This method is applied to the control of the temperature distribution of a thin metal rod.en2405-89632020240144019Elsevierhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Spatially-interconnected systemsdistributed systemsspatio-temporal loopshapinglarge-scale systemspartial differential equationsTechnikIngenieurwissenschaftenConference Paper10.15480/882.354110.1016/j.ifacol.2020.12.262010.15480/882.3541Conference Paper
