Output Feedback Controller Synthesis for Negative Imaginary Systems

Abstract

This paper presents necessary and sufficient conditions for deriving a strictly proper dynamic controller which satisfies the negative imaginary output feedback control problem. Our synthesis method divides the output feedback control problem into a state feedback problem and a dual output injection problem. Thus, a controller is formed using the solutions to a pair of dual algebraic Riccati equations. Finally, an illustrative example is offered to show how this method may be applied. Show more
