A structurally constrained LMI approach to maximizing the real stability radius by state feedback

摘要

Takes advantage of a result on robust stability and formulates an LMI based optimization problem to maximize the real stability radius of a system by state feedback. Since a Metzlerian system admits a closed form expression for its stability radius, one can impose its constrained structure in the stabilization of a general system and at the same time maximize the stability radius.
