Structurally Constrained Controllers

Abstract

Many real-world systems can be envisaged as the interconnected systems consisting of a number of subsystems. Normally, the desirable control structure for this class of systems is decentralized, which comprises a set of local controllers for the subsystems [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. Decentralized control theory has found applications in large space structure, communication networks, power systems, etc. [7, 8, 9, 10]. More recently, simultaneous stabilization of a set of decentralized systems and decentralized periodic control design are investigated in [11, 12].
