Mv. Salapaka et al., MIMO OPTIMAL-CONTROL DESIGN - THE INTERPLAY BETWEEN THE H-2 AND THE L(1) NORMS, IEEE transactions on automatic control, 43(10), 1998, pp. 1374-1388
In this paper we consider controller design methods which can address
directly the interplay between the H-2 and l(1) performance of the clo
sed loop. The development is devoted to multi-input/multi-output (MIMO
) systems. Two relevant multiobjective performance problems are consid
ered each being of interest in its own right. In the first, termed as
the combination problem, a weighted sum of the l(1) norms and the squa
re of the H-2 norms of a given set of input-output transfer functions
constituting the closed loop is minimized. It is shown that, in the on
e-block case, the solution can be obtained via a finite-dimensional qu
adratic optimization problem which has an a priori known dimension. In
the four-block case, a method of computing approximate solutions with
in any a priori given tolerance is provided. In the second, termed as
the mixed problem, the H-2 performance of the closed loop is minimized
subject to an l(1) constraint. It is shown that approximating solutio
ns within any a priori given tolerance can be obtained via the solutio
n to a related combination problem.
