Abstract

Optimum control of linear multivariable processes is the concern of this paper. The optimum control problem is studied via the state-variable concept and the dynamic-programing technique. A linear multivariable control system is shown to have optimum performance with respect to a quadratic performance criterion, if both the controller and the estimator are independently designed in an optimum manner.
