Abstract: Considered in this paper is the problem of robust stabilization of a family of interval plants by a single fixed compensator. A frequency domain sufficient condition determines the closed-loop ...

Abstract: Considered in this paper is the question of synthesizing a fixed compensator for an interval plant so that (i) robust stability and (ii) robust disturbance rejection in the sense of Quantitative ...

Abstract: Considered in this paper is the problem of stabilizing a linear unstable plant under bounded control. It is shown that a linear strictly unstable plant can never be globally stabilized under ...

Abstract: Considered in this paper is the question of whether a compensator realized by the MIMO-QFT nonsequential method robustly stabilizes the entire plant family. In order to establish our results, ...

Abstract: Considered in this paper is the robust stabilization of a special family of single-input single-output, interval plants in which only the denominator polynomial or the plant poles are uncertain. ...

Abstract: The QFT robust performance problem in its entirety may be reduced to an H∞ problem by casting each specification as a frequency domain constraint on the nominal sensitivity function and the ...

Abstract: Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) has often been criticized for lack of a rigorous mathematical theory to support its claims. Yet it is known to be a very effective design methodology. In ...

Abstract: The QFT robust performance problem in its entirety may be reduced to an H∞ problem by casting each specification as a frequency domain constraint either on the nominal sensitivity function or ...

Abstract: In the absence of plant parameter uncertainty feedforward controllers can be synthesized to achieve perfect continuous tracking. When plant has uncertainties it is, in general, impossible to ...
