Robust LPV controller synthesis with uncertainty modeling

The paper presents an iterative uncertainty modeling and robust controller synthesis method for linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems in linear fractional transformation (LFT) form. The goal of the method is to improve robust performance by exploiting modeling freedom in the structured uncertainty descriptions while ensuring model consistency with respect to measurement data. The proposed iterative algorithm consists of three steps: robust LPV controller synthesis, tuning of the uncertainty model and performing closed-loop experiments for new validation data.
