A complete, up-to-date textbook on an increasingly important subject

Robust Systems Theory and Applications covers both the techniques used in linear robust control
analysis/synthesis and in robust (control-oriented) identification. The main analysis and design methods
are complemented by elaborated examples and a group of worked-out applications that stress specific
practical issues: nonlinearities, robustness against changes in operating conditions, uncertain infinite
dimensional plants, and actuator and sensor limitations. Designed expressly as a textbook for master's
and first-year PhD students, this volume:

z Introduces basic robustness concepts in the context of SISO systems described by Laplace
transforms, establishing connections with well-known classical control techniques
z Presents the internal stabilization problem from two different points of view: algebraic and state —
space
z Introduces the four basic problems in robust control and the Loop shaping design method
Presents the optimal *2 control problem from a different viewpoint, including an analysis of the
robustness properties of *2 controllers and a treatment of the generalized *2 problem
z Presents the *2 control problem using both the state-space approach developed in the late 1980s
and a Linear Matrix Inequality approach (developed in the mid 1990s) that encompasses more
general problems
z Discusses more general types of uncertainties (parametric and mixed type) and µµ-synthesis as a
design tool
z Presents an overview of optimal ,1 control theory and covers the fundamentals of its star-norm
approximation
z Presents the basic tools of model order reduction
z Provides a tutorial on robust identification
z Offers numerous end-of-chapter problems and worked-out examples of robust control
