Robust Control of Linear Dynamical Systems

by P.C. Chandrasekharan

During the past decade, significant advances have taken place in the area of robust control. Unfortunately, many of these developments are scattered in research publications and are accessible only to a selected group of experts. Often, the original ideas and the motivations for pursuing a particular path are lost in a maze of mathematical formalism.
Robust Control of Linear Dynamical Systems is intended to bring these important ideas and techniques to the attention of a wider audience. The author uses a step-by-step approach to guide the reader through this sometimes difficult material. Mathematical rigor is balanced with readability to provide the reader with an easy understanding of the important aspects of robust control. The book is suitable as a textbook for students in engineering with some previous exposure to linear system theory. Itis equally appropriate as a self-study guide for those interested in acquiring a deeper knowledge of robust control design.

. It is essentially self contained and the
principal concepts involved have been developed
right from the fundamentals.

. While the main emphasis is on state space, the
operator and functional formalism has been
given adequate weight.

. One chapter has been exclusively devoted to
Kharitonov theory and related developments.

. The pedagogic nature of the book has been
further enhanced by providing exercises at the
end of every chapter.
