MU K(M)-DESIGN WITH TIME-DOMAIN CONSTRAINTS

Standard mu/k(m)-synthesis approaches [1], [7] cannot handle specifica tions on closed-loop time responses in a direct manner. On the other h and, constrained H-infinity optimization [5] handles explicitly time-d omain specifications in an H-infinity-optimal control setting but is c onservative with respect to structured model uncertainty. In this pape r, the authors propose a constrained mu/k(m)-synthesis approach to des ign robust controllers for uncertain systems with time-domain constrai nts and structured real/complex model uncertainties, They derive an al gorithm based on an iteration process involving a search for multiplie rs and the solution of scaled constrained H-infinity-optimization prob lems.
