IQC robustness analysis for feedback interconnections of unstable distributed parameter systems

Abstract

In recent work the authors combined integral-quadratic-constraint (IQC) based analysis with ν-gap metric based analysis to study the robustness of feedback interconnections of possibly unstable rational transfer functions. This is extended here to the case of irrational transfer functions without pure delays. Specifically, we restrict attention to the sub-algebra of Callier-Desoer class transfer functions that have a limit at infinity. ©2009 IEEE.
