A NEW APPROACH TO THE SOLUTION OF SENSITIVITY MINIMIZATION IN LINEAR STATE FEEDBACK CONTROL

In this paper, it is shown that by exploiting the explicit parametric state feedback solution, it is feasible to obtain the ultimate solution to minimum sensitivity problem. A numerical algorithm for construction of a robust state feedback in eigenvalue assignment problem for a controllable linear system is presented. By using a generalized parametric vector companion form, the problem of eigenvalue assignment with minimum sensitivity is re-formulated as an unconstrained minimization problem. The derived explicit expressions of the solutions allow minimization of the sensitivity problem by using a powerful search technique
