Abstract
This thesis presented the results of an investigation on the stability robustness issues of the Infinite-horizon linear-quadratic-Gaussian (IH-LQG) control system design methodology. The goal of this research deals with the design of Observer based controller using Output Feedback (00F), and this is a new method to solve estimation problems. The primary difference of this method from others is that the estimator is considered as a system. The results of this research shows that the optimal output feedback control law and the optimal state estimator can be designed by the optimal output feedback control method, and shows that the OOF Weighting Matrices and the noise covariances have similar effects on the filter gains. Therefore, this method links optimal control and optimal estimation. Furthermore, a simulation program is developed to compare the robustness properties of the OOF method and others.
