Discrete-Time H∞-Optimal Full-State Feedback Control

A discrete time system operates on a discrete time signal input and produces a discrete time signal output. They are used in digital signal processing, such as digital filters for images or sound. The class of discrete time systems that are both linear and time invariant, known as discrete time LTI systems.

A full state feedback controller design for a Discrete Time system, to minimize the H∞ norm of the closed loop system with exogenous input $w_{k}$ and performance output $z_{k}$.

The System

Discrete-Time LTI System with state space realization $(A_{d},B_{d},C_{d},D_{d})$
${\begin{aligned}x_{k+1}&=A_{d}x_{k}+B_{d1}w_{k}+B_{d2}u_{k}\\z_{k}&=C_{d1}x_{k}+D_{d12}u_{k}\\y_{k}&=x_{k}\\\end{aligned}}$

The Data

The matrices: System $(A_{d},B_{d1},B_{d2},C_{d1},D_{d12}),P,F_{d}$.

The Optimization Problem

The following feasibility problem should be optimized:

$\gamma$ is minimized while obeying the LMI constraints.

The LMI:

Discrete-Time H∞-Optimal Full-State Feedback Control

The LMI formulation

H∞ norm < $\gamma$

${\begin{aligned}P\in {S^{n_{x}}};&F_{d}\in {R^{n_{u}*n_{x}}};\gamma \in {R_{>0}}\;\\&P>0\\{\begin{bmatrix}P&A_{d}P-B_{d2}F_{d}&B_{d1}&0\\*&P&0&PC_{d1}^{T}-F_{d}^{T}D_{d12}^{T}\\*&*&-\gamma I&D_{d11}^{T}\\*&*&*&-\gamma I\end{bmatrix}}&>0,\\\end{aligned}}$

Conclusion:

The H∞-optimal full-state feedback gain is recovered by $K_{d}=F_{d}P^{-1}$
