Decentralized H_∞ suboptimal design: An LMI approach

Abstract

Address the design of state-feedback H_∞ suboptimal controllers. Through parameterization of decentralized controllers, the design condition for the feedback gain is given in the form of a biaffine matrix inequality. An iterative algorithm based on linear matrix inequality(LMI) is proposed to obtain the decentralized controller which ensures the closed-loop system asymptotically stable and the H_∞-norm less than constant number 1.

Keywords
