An Investigation of a Relationship between Modal Control Theory and Linear Optimal Control Theory.

Abstract

An investigation was made of a relationship between modal and linear optimal control theories to determine whether the modal feedback gain matrix would be of help in finding the weighting matrices of the optimal steady-state criterion. Modal and optimal control theories are reviewed, and the concepts of steady-state optimal control, and single-input and multiple-input modal control are developed.
