Abstract

The linear \(\mathcal{H}_{\infty }\)-control theory makes extensive use of transfer functions, which are revised in this chapter. The \(\mathcal{H}_{\infty }\) norm is introduced in the Hardy space of stable transfer matrices, and its optimization is given for linear-controlled plants in terms of two algebraic Riccati equations with a separation structure reminiscent of the classical linear quadratic Gaussian theory. An alternative \(\mathcal{H}_{\infty }\) synthesis, relying on two algebraic Riccati inequalities, is developed for later extension to nonsmooth setting.
