Abstract :
A controller design for an active vibration isolation system is described in this paper. The controllers were designed using a constrained optimization design method based on quadratic programming. The closed loop was directly constrained to satisfy a set of performance and robustness specifications. The controllers were successfully implemented and tested on the hardware system
