4. 2. Gain-Scheduled Controller Design

   Author : Adrian Ilka; Chalmers University of Technology; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Guaranteed cost control; Gain-scheduled control; Bellman-Lyapunov function; Lyapunov theory of stability; Robust control; Input output constraints; LPV system;

   Abstract : This thesis is devoted to controller synthesis, i.e. to finding a systematic procedure to determine the optimal (sub-optimal) controller parameters which guarantees the closed-loop stability and guaranteed cost for uncertain nonlinear systems with considering input/output constraints, all this without on-line optimization.
