Abstract :
A homotopy algorithm for a full-order LQG controller design problem with an H∞ constraint on disturbance attenuation is developed. The H∞ constraint is enforced by replacing the covariance Lyapunov equation by a Riccati equation whose solution gives an upper bound on H2 performance. The numerical algorithm, based on homotopy theory, solves the necessary conditions for a minimum of the upper bound on H2 performance. The algorithm is based on Ly, Bryson, and Cannon´s 2×2 block parametrization (1985).
