Guaranteed-Cost Control

The book "Guaranteed-Cost Control" deals with the topic of quadratic guaranteed cost control for linear uncertain systems. It provides a comprehensive analysis and methodology for designing quadratically stabilizing controllers that ensure a guaranteed level of performance for the closed system. The authors apply both the algebraic Riccati equation approach and the linear matrix inequality approach to construct optimal or suboptimal quadratic guaranteed cost controllers for various classes of uncertain systems. The systems addressed include linear uncertain systems with structured or unstructured uncertainties as well as systems with time delays. Furthermore, the issue of quadratic guaranteed cost control is discussed in connection with a robust pole placement approach for linear uncertain systems.
