A design procedure is developed that combines linear-quadratic optimal control with regional pole placement. Specifically, a static and dynamic output-feedback control problem is addressed in which the poles of the closed-loop system are constrained to lie in specified regions of the complex plane. These regional pole constraints are embedded within the optimization process by replacing the covariance Lyapunov equation by a modified Lyapunov equation whose solution, in certain cases, leads to an upper bound on the quadratic cost functional. The results include necessary and sufficient conditions for characterizing static output-feedback controllers with bounded performance and regional pole constraints. Sufficient conditions are also presented for the fixed-order (i.e. full- and reduced-order) dynamic output-feedback problem with regional pole constraints. Circular, elliptical, vertical strip, parabolic, and section regions are considered.
