Abstract-This paper presents a method to perform modelfree fixed structure controller synthesis. Based on frequency response data of the plant, the parameters of a predefined controller structure are optimized directly with respect to closedloop performance specifications. As a result, no parametric plant model is required such that time consuming iterative identification-synthesis procedures can be omitted.A framework is presented to both assure stability and optimize closed-loop performance based on frequency response data. Furthermore, based upon these results, a cost-function is formulated that can be exploited to converge from a destabilizing-to the stabilizing controller parameter region. Both the stability guarantee and performance optimization procedures are combined in one optimization algorithm that is illustrated by means of an example.
I. INTRODUCTIONApplication of model-based optimal control synthesis methodologies require a low order parametric model of the plant. When only input-output data of a system is available, the most appr...
