Week 12: Linear Quadratic
Regulators
13 January 2003

 |
The linear quadratic regulator (LQR) problem provides a design method for building
state space controllers. We start with a review of the optimal control problem
and basic LQR results (details and proofs are left to the reading). The results
are illustrated using the ducted fan example and exploring how different choices
of weights affect the performance. We then explore how to incorporate reference
inputs and integral action into the LQR formalism. Finally, some notions of
robustness are explored and a comparison with frequency domain techniques is
given.

Homework
The homework covers the basic design of LQR controllers through a set of four
different problems. In addition, one problem covers the design of feedforward
controllers for nonzero desired states and integral action in LQR compensators.
