Abstract

Output regulation is the problem of finding a control law by which the output of the concerning plant can asymptotically track a prescribed trajectories and/or asymptotically reject undesired disturbances. Meanwhile, the unforced closed-loop system is required to be asymptotically stable. For linear systems the internal model principle is a powerful tool to solve this problem. It is a central problem in control theory.
