Control Theory for Linear Systems deals with the mathematical theory
of feedback control of linear systems. It treats a wide range of control
synthesis problems for linear state space systems with inputs and
outputs. The book provides a treatment of these problems using state
space methods, often with a geometric flavour. Its subject matter ranges
from controllability and observability, stabilization, disturbance
decoupling, and tracking and regulation, to linear quadratic regulation,
H2 and H-infinity control, and robust stabilization. Each chapter of the
book contains a series of exercises, intended to increase the reader's
understanding of the material. Often, these exercises generalize and
extend the material treated in the regular text.
