Linear Systems: Non-Fragile Control and Filtering

Designing controllers and filters such that the resulting closed-loop systems are non-fragile or insensitive with respect to the perturbations in the controller or filter coefficients has become an important research topic in many fields of engineering and science. This book systematically presents novel methods for non-fragile control and filtering of linear systems with respect to controller/filter coefficient variations. It provides designs and guidelines that can be used to develop advanced non-fragile control techniques to improve reliability, maintainability, and survivability of complex control systems.
