A numerical control design method for designing optimal LTI (linear time-invariant) controllers for LTI plants with multiple design constraints has been presented. The techniques combine convex optimization over LMIs (linear matrix inequalities) with the Youla parameterization of a set of achievable stable closed-loop maps. The advantages of this approach are that engineering specifications can be directly incorporated in the design, without calling on the experience or intuition of the designer to ``tune the design parameters. The particular advantage with the use of LMIs is that several important frequency domain constraints can be exactly reformulated as LMI constraints. In addition to designing controllers, it is possible to study the limits of performance of linear controllers, that is, to numerically determine the best achievable performance using linear controllers. The developed technique is applied to design controller for the NEC laser bounder. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0932.00034].
