Abstract

Output controllers for multivariate linear systems are designed such that they ensure, besides a given radius of stability margin for the physical input or output of the controlled object, a given radius of steady state characterized by the operation accuracy of a closed-loop system for adjusted variables. This design problem is reduced to a special H -optimization problem and the result is purely of sufficient type. It is solved numerically in the state space by the linear matrix inequalities method of MATLAB.
