Systems with delays appear frequently in engineering; typical
examples of time-delay systems are communication networks, chemical
processes and tele-operation systems. The presence of delays makes
system analysis and control design much more complicated. During
the last decade, we have witnessed significant developments in
robust control of time-delay systems. Robust Control of Time-delay
Systems presents a systematic and comprehensive treatment for
robust (H-infinity) control of such systems in the frequency
domain. The emphasis is on systems with a single input or output
delay, although the delay-free part of the plant can be
multi-input-multi-output, in which case the delays in different
channels should be the same.
This synthesis of the authora (TM)s recent work covers the whole
range of robust control of time-delay systems: from controller
parameterization and design to controller implementation; from the
Nehari and one-block problems to the four-block problem; from
theoretical developments to practical issues. The major tools used
in this book are similarity transformation, the chain-scattering
approach and J-spectral factorization. The idea is, in the words of
Albert Einstein, to "make everything as simple as possible, but not
simpler." A website associated with the book is a source of
MATLABA(R) and SimulinkA(R) material which will assist with
simulation and modelling of the material in the text.
Robust Control of Time-delay Systems is self-contained and will
interest control theorists, researchers and mathematicians working
with time-delay systems and engineers looking to design commercial
controllers or to use them in plants or communication systems with
time delays.Its methodical approach will also be of value to
graduates studying either general robust control theory or its
particular applications in time-delay systems.
