Robust control

Robust control

Robust control is a branch of control theory that explicitly deals with uncertainty in its approach to controller design. Controllers designed using robust control methods tend to be able to cope with small differences between the true system and the nominal model used for design. The early methods of Bode and others were fairly robust; the state-space methods invented in the 1960's and 1970's were sometimes found to lack robustness. A modern example of a robust control technique is H-infinity loop-shaping developed by Duncan McFarlane and Keith Glover of Cambridge University. Robust methods aim to achieve robust performance and/or stability in the presence of small modelling errors.
