Robust Narrow-Band Disturbance Rejection Using Overparameterized Pole-Assignment Control

In this work the problem of designing feedback controllers for the rejection of narrow-band disturbances is considered. The design technique proposed herein is based upon a well-suited overparameterization of a standard model-based minimum-variance controller; the extra-degrees-of-freedom so introduced are used to improve the performence of the basic controller. In particular, the problem of improving the robustness of the system, when the time delay of the system is subject to uncertainties, is considered, and an innovative solution proposed
