This paper considers the output feedback H2 guaranteed cost control problem. In [1], it was observed that exploiting the solution of a discrete algebraic Riccati equation corresponding to an optimal full information control design allowed the output feedback control problem, for a fixed value of a design parameter, to be reduced to a so-called full control problem in which only filter gains of ...

This paper addresses the H2 and H∞ filtering design problems of discrete-time Markov jump linear systems. First, under the assumption that the Markov parameter is measured, the main contribution is on the LMI characterization of all filters such that the estimation error remains bounded by a given norm level, yielding the complete solution of the mode-dependent filtering design problem. Based o...

A method for MEMS macromodel development is presented which is based on a physical device description to obtain mathematical relations for the device operation. Since design and technology parameters are input parameters of the resulting model, this method is well suited for design studies. As a benchmark problem, we refer to the macromodel of a micropump driven by an electrostatically actuated...

Robust parameter design has been successfully applied to a variety of engineering problems for enhancing the robustness of the system; however, it cannot deal with multiple dynamic quality systems. Although several other approaches have been presented to resolve this problem, they are unable to efficiently treat the situations that the control factors have continuous values. This study incorpor...
