Output stabilization of linear systems with disturbances

Abstract

In this paper a control design is proposed to stabilize a controlled output. It is assumed that only a part of the state vector is known. One part of the disturbances affecting the controlled output is decoupled from it by using feedback, the other part of the disturbances that affects the output, which cannot be decoupled by using feedback, is compensated by using its estimation. An example dealing with the output regulation of a Boeing 767 is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.
