Abstract :
We present a new numerical method for the solution of the optimal H∞ control problem. The method is based on the γ-iteration as well as the state-space solution to the (sub)optimal H∞ control problem, but re-formulates all steps in order to achieve better robustness in the presence of rounding errors than any implementation of the textbook formulae. It remains robust in the presence of rounding errors even as γ approaches its optimal value.
