H_∞ Design for Sampled-Data Systems via Lifting Technique: Conditions and Limitation

摘要

The initial motivation of the lifting technique is to solve the H∞control problems. However, the conventional weighted H∞design does not meet the conditions required by lifting, so the result often leads to a misjudgement of the design. Two conditions required by using the lifting technique are presented based on the basic formulae of the lifting. It is pointed out that only the H∞disturbance attenuation problem with no weighting functions can meet these conditions, hence, the application of the lifting technique is quite limited.
