Abstract:
This brief paper presents a perturbation technique with which a controller stabilizing one plant may be modified so that it stabilizes a second, related plant. The proposed technique produces an internally stable loop for a broad class of linear systems without requiring any further calculations on the part of the designer. Four seemingly different examples are described in terms of this result.
