“…Not included in this review, but worth mentioning, are the contributions of Evans and Xianya (1985), Soh et al (1987), Soh (1989) and Garcia et al (1996) who give procedures for robust pole assignment in the presence of known but bounded parameter variations in the plant. Keel et al (1988) and Solak and Peng (1995) study how the pole placement controller affects the robust stability of the resulting closed-loop system. In (Keel et al, 1988), an iterative Copyright © 2002 IFAC 15th Triennial World Congress, Barcelona, Spain procedure is also given for adjusting the parameters of the controller so that robustness requirements are met.…”
