Practical Methods for Robust Multivariable Control

Abstract

The design of super maneuverable fighter aircraft, high-precision space-born optical tracking systems and transatmospheric hypervelocity vehicles will pose significant challenges to modern control system design theory. The theme of the research has been making modern control theory work. The product of the research has been theory, algorithms and software applicable to multivariable feedback control problems in which there are design constraints requiring robust attainment of stability and control performance objectives in the face of both structured and unstructured uncertainty.
