Robust Control of LTI Systems by Means of Structurally Constrained Controllers

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Structurally Constrained Controllers

Abstract

Numerous real-world systems can be envisaged as interconnected systems consisting of a number of subsystems [1]. Every controller for such a system is often composed of a set of local controllers corresponding to the individual subsystems. In an unconstrained control structure, each local controller has access to the outputs of all the subsystems. This class of controllers is referred to as centralized. However, in many control applications, each local controller can only use the information of a subset of subsystems.
