The robust control of a servomechanism problem for linear time-invariant multivariable systems
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that there is a robust controller for a linear, time-invariant, multivariable system (plant) that asymptotic tracking/regulation occurs independent of input disturbances and arbitrary perturbations in the plant parameters of the system.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the stabilization of decentralized control systems
Shih-Ho Wang,Edward J. Davison +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of local control laws with dynamic compensation to stabilize a given system is derived in terms of a new notion, called "fixed modes", which is a natural generalization of the well-known concept of uncontrollable modes and unobservable modes that occur in centralized control system problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
On "A method for simplifying linear dynamic systems"
M. Chidambara,Edward J. Davison +1 more
TL;DR: A method is proposed for reducing large matrices by constructing a matrix of lower order which has the same dominant eigenvalues and eigenvectors as the original system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Robust control of a general servomechanism problem: The servo compensator
TL;DR: In this article, the robust control of a general servomechanism problem is considered and sufficient conditions for asymptotic tracking to occur, independent of disturbances in the plant and perturbations in the parameters and gains of the system, are obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Properties and calculation of transmission zeros of linear multivariable systems
Edward J. Davison,S. H. Wang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new definition of transmission zeros for a linear, multivariable, time-invariant system is made which is shown to be equivalent to previous definitions.
