Robust and Optimal Control Robust and Optimal

Abstract

This book is inspired by the recent developmen particularly the state-space H-inf control theory developed in the paper by Doyle, Glover, Khargonekar, and Francis 1989 (known as DGKF paper). We give a fairly comprehensive and step-by-step treatment of the state-space H-inf control theory in the style of DGKF. We also treat the robust control problems with unstructured and structured uncertainties. The linear fractional transformation (LFT) and the structured singualr value (known as mu) are introduced as the unified tools for robust stability and performance analysis and synthesis. Chapter 1 contains a more detailed chapter-by-chapter review of the topics and results presented in this book.
