The guaranteed cost control problem via the decentralized robust control for nonlinear uncertain large-scale systems that have delay in both state and control input is considered. Sufficient conditions for the existence of guaranteed cost controllers are given in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI). It is shown that the decentralized local state feedback controllers can be obtained by solvi...

Abstract: This paper considers the analysis and synthesis of a spatially distributed controller for discrete-time spatially interconnected parameter-varying system. The system under consideration has both discrete time and space dynamics. The concept of quadratic separators (Iwasaki and Shibata, 2001), (Chughtai and Werner, 2007) has been extended to compute a measure of worst-case performance ...

This paper presents sufficient dilated linear matrix inequalities (LMI) conditions to the H∞ and H2 model reduction problem. A special structure of the auxiliary (slack) variables allows the original model of order n to be reduced to an order r = n/s where n, r, s ∈ N. Arbitrary order of the reduced model can be enforced by including states in the original system with negligible input-to-output...

This paper tackles the problem of H-infinity (H∞) norm computation for a commensurate Fractional Order System (FOS). First, H∞ norm definition is given for FOS and Hamiltonian matrix of a FOS is computed. Two methods based on this Hamiltonian matrix are then proposed to compute the FOS H∞ norm: one based on a dichotomy algorithm and another one on LMI conditions. The LMI conditions are based on...

Traditionally, policymakers, communities, and industry have regarded the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) as a positive mandate for banks and thrifts to do good by increasing investment in lowand moderate-income (“LMI”) neighborhoods. The specific purpose of CRA is to encourage federally insured depository institutions “to help meet the credit needs of the local communities in which they are ...

This paper examines the problem of designing a robust H∞ state-feedback controller for a class of nonlinear two-time scale systems with Markovian Jumps described by a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model. Based on a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, LMI-based sufficient conditions for the uncertain Markovian jump nonlinear two-time scale systems to have an H∞ performance are derived. The propo...

Abstract Under the multi-objective framework, this paper presents a hybrid algorithm to solve robust static output feedback control problem for continuous polytopic uncertain system. To obtain static output feedback gain, a new hybrid algorithm is proposed by combination of a hybrid algorithm of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Evolution (DE), and the linear matrix inequal...

The continuous-and discrete-time H 1 control problems are solved via elementary manipulations on linear matrix inequalities (LMI). Two interesting new features emerge through this approach: solvability conditions valid for both regular and singular problems , and an LMI-based parametrization of all H 1-suboptimal controllers, including reduced-order controllers. The solvability conditions invol...
