Linear Optimal Control: H2 and Hà Methods is a reader-friendly book that features recent research results on robustness, Hà control, and …m- synthesis. Linear Optimal Control combines these new results with previous work on optimal control to form a complete picture of control system design and analysis.
A comprehensive book, Linear Optimal Control covers the analysis of control systems, H2 (linear quadratic Gaussian), and Hà to a degree not found in many texts. Its logical organization and its focus on establishing a solid grounding in the basics be fore tackling mathematical subtleties make Linear Optimal Control an ideal teaching text.
