This advanced course will cover modern design methods for optimal and robust control like LQ-optimal control, time-optimal (bang-bang) control, Hinf-optimal control, mixed-sensitivity minimization, DK-iteration, robust loopshaping. Semidefinite programming and linear matrix inequalities (LMI) will be covered as they constitute a an ellegant theoretical and powerful computation tool for solving all those tasks. Emphasis in the course will be put on the actual computational design skills (in Matlab).
