Decentralized Control and Filtering in Interconnected Dynamical Systems

Based on the many approaches available for working with large-scale systems (LSS), this book supplies a rigorous framework for studying the analysis, stability, and control problems of LSS. Providing an overall assessment of LSS theories, it addresses model order reduction, parametric uncertainties, time delays, and control estimator gain perturbations. It addresses the dominating sources of difficulties due to dimensionality, information structure constraints, uncertainties, and time delays. The text is supported by proofs, efficient computational methods, end-of-chapter problems, and approximately 1,300 equations.
