We are attempting to stabilizing The Static State-Feedback Problem

The System edit

Consider a continuous time Linear Time invariant system

 

The Data edit

  are known matrices

The Optimization Problem edit

The Problem's main aim is to find a feedback matrix such that the system

 

and

 


is stable Initially we find the   matrix such that   is Hurwitz.

The LMI: Static State Feedback Problem edit

This problem can now be formulated into an LMI as Problem 1:

 

From the above equation   and we have to find K

The problem as we can see is bilinear in  

  • The bilinear in X and K is a common paradigm
  • Bilinear optimization is not Convex. To Convexify the problem, we use a change of variables.

Problem 2:

 

where   and we find  
 

The Problem 1 is equivalent to Problem 2

Conclusion edit

If the (A,B) are controllable, We can obtain a controller matrix that stabilizes the system.
