Abstract
In previous chapters our objectives in system synthesis have been almost entirely qualitative: we have indeed imposed requirements like stability on the system spectrum, but in the main have sought to realize very general properties of signal flow, as in tracking or noninteraction. By contrast, in this chapter and the next we take a somewhat more quantitative approach to realizing good dynamic response. We describe a systematic way of comput-ing linear state feedback which ensures “optimal” recovery from an impul-sive disturbance acting at the system input. It will later be clear how to incorporate the method into the framework of synthesis techniques already presented.
