Linear Quadratic Gaussian Control

  • Chapter
Discrete-time Stochastic Systems

Part of the book series: Advanced Textbooks in Control and Signal Processing ((C&SP))

Abstract

The problem to be coped with in this chapter will lead to the celebrated separation theorem. The basic setup has three essential ingredients:

  • the system is linear

  • the criterion is quadratic

  • the disturbances are Gaussian.
