A state feedback pseudo-H∞ control theory is developed. In a similar fashion to the strict bounded real lemma in H∞ control theory, a strict pseudo-bounded real lemma is established. A sufficient condition for the synthesis of the state feedback pseudo-H∞ control is given, which is also applied to the control of pendulum-like nonlinear systems.7enLagrange stabilityPendulum-like nonlinear systemStrict Pseudo-bounded real lemmaA pseudo-H<sub>∞</sub> control theory and its application to the control of pendulum-like nonlinear systems200910.1109/CDC.2009.539968677950850727
