SYSTEMS & CONTROL FOUNDATIONS & APPLICATIONS ...

One of the main goals of optimal control theory is to provide a theoretical basis for choosing
an appropriate controller for whatever system is under consideration by the researcher or
engineer. Two popular norms that have proved useful are known as H-2 and H - infinity control.
The first has been particularly applicable to problems arising in the aerospace industry.
However  most industrial problems are badly modeled and the second norm proved to be more
appropriate when the actual conditions of the problem did not conform to the stipulated
conditions of the theory. This book takes the topic of H-infinity control as a point of
departure and pursues an improved controller design which has been suggested in the mainstream
of robust control. Its main theme  minimum entropy control  provides a means of trading off
some of the features of other control problems. The book is aimed at research workers in
networking systems as well as those in operator theory and linear multivariable control. The
use of stochastic methods makes the book also of importance to the circuits and systems
community. CONTENTS: Preface - Introduction - Preliminaries - Induced Operator Norms -
