Abstract: | In the two block Hinftyoptimization problem, usually we are given the state-space realizations of the proper rational matricesR_{1}(s)andR_{2}(s)whose poles are all the open right-half plane. Two problems are studied in the note. The first is the evaluation ofphi(s)R_{1}(s)ats = s_{k}, k = 1, 2, ..., n, wherephi(s)is an inner function whose zeros{s_{k}, k = 1, 2, ..., n }are the poles ofR_{1}(s). This evaluation is essential if Chang and Pearson's method is used for computing the optimal Hinftynorm. The problem is solved in state space via the solutions of Lyapunov equations. Neither polynomial matrix manipulations nor numerical pole-zero cancellations are involved in the evaluation. The second problem is to find a stable state-space realization ofS(s) = U(s)R_{2}(s)whereU(s)is an inner matrix. This problem arises in the spectral factorization ofgamma^{2} - R_{2}^{ast}R_{2}. Doyle and Chu had a method for constructing stableS(s)based on a minimal realization ofR_{2}(s). An alternate method is proposed. The alternate method does not require a minimal realization ofR_{2}(s)and only a Lyapunov equation is involved. |
