Abstract

In this chapter and the following, a completely different approach will be taken than in the previous chapters: instead of considering the eigenvalues of the closedloop control system or those of an observer, we will invoke quadratic optimization methods, deterministic here, stochastic in Chapter 4. For this reason, the dynamic behavior of the control system is no longer mastered directly. Fortunately however, the control designed in this chapter will have robustness properties, going thus beyond the simple stability requirement, as will be seen at the end of the chapter.
