Abstract
The closed-loop stability of linear, time-invariant systems controlled by linear quadratic (LQ) regulators is investigated when there are nonlinearities in the control channels which lie outside the (
) stability sector in regions away from the origin (i.e., saturation-type nonlinearities). An estimate of the region of attraction is obtained which provides methods for selecting the performance function weights for more robust LQ designs.
