Within this framework, the author develops the ideas of state feedback control and observers. He then examines optimal control, stochastic optimal control, and the lack of robustness of linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control. The book subsequently presents robust control techniques and derives \u003ci\u003eH\u003c\/i\u003e∞ control theory from the first principle, followed by a discussion of the sliding mode control of a linear system. In addition, it shows how a blend of sliding mode control and \u003ci\u003eH\u003c\/i\u003e∞ methods can enhance the robustness of a linear system. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy learning the theories and algorithms as well as exploring the examples in \u003cb\u003eLinear Systems: Optimal and Robust Control\u003c\/b\u003e, students will be able to better understand and ultimately better manage engineering processes and systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alok Sinha\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0849392179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780849392177\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.29h x 6.48w x 1.21d","brand":"Alok Sinha","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43926638657791,"sku":"9780849392177","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_083d7f76-e34d-4871-ad7b-8f8058162dc3.jpg?v=1681084186","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/linear-systems-alok-sinha-9780849392177","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
