Simultaneous stabilization by static output feedback: a rank-constrained LMI approach
Seog-Joo Kim, Young-Hyun Moon, Soonman Kwon · 2006
This paper presents a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach to the design of a static output feedback controller that simultaneously stabilizes a finite collection of linear time-invariant systems. The problem is formulated as a novel rank-constrained LMI feasibility problem with a nonconvex rank condition, and is solved using an iterative penalty function method. Numerical experiments are performed to illustrate the proposed method
