Abstract: In this paper we study robust output tracking and disturbance rejection of linear partial differential equation (PDE) models. We focus on demonstrating how the abstract internal model based controller design methods developed for "regular linear systems" can be utilised in controller design for concrete PDE systems. We show that when implemented for PDE systems, the abstract control design methods lead in a natural way to controllers with "PDE parts". Moreover, we formulate the controller construction in a way which utilises minimal knowledge of the abstract system representation and is instead solely based on natural properties of the original PDE. We also discuss computation and approximation of the controller parameters, and illustrate the results with an example on control design for a boundary controlled diffusion equation.
