Robust and H_ Control
About this ebook
Constructive algorithms are provided for finding solutions to:
• general singular H-infinity control problems;
• general H-infinity almost disturbance decoupling problems;
• robust and perfect tracking problems.
The theory presented in the earlier chapters of the text are also subsequently applied to real-life problems with actual implementations: gyro-stabilized mirror targeting; hard-disk-drive servo control and control of a piezoelectric actuator.
Robust and H-infinity Control can be used for graduate courses in robust control and as a reference for academic researchers; the reader should have completed first-year graduate courses in linear systems and multivariable control. It will also be of great value to engineers practising in the process, electronics and aerospace industries.
