Title
Designing robustly stabilising controllers for LTI spatially distributed systems using coprime factor synthesis
Abstract
This paper considers the design of feedback controllers for linear, time-invariant, spatially distributed systems in an approach which generalises the H^~-framework and in particular the H^~ loop-shaping method. To this end, we introduce a class of spatially distributed system models called finite dimensional, distributed, linear, time-invariant systems. Sensors and actuators are considered to be part of the controller, rather than part of the plant, and thus the controller we wish to design is itself a spatially distributed system. Optimising over placements and shapes of the sensor and actuator spatial distribution functions is an integrated part of the controller design procedure. As an illustrative design example, we present the feedback stabilisation of an electrostatically destabilised, electrically conducting membrane.
