Robust Control of Time-delay Systems, by Qing-Chang Zhong, (London: Springer-Verlag, 2006), reviewed by Olivier SENAME
Résumé
The book ISBN-13 978-1-84628-264-5 is composed of 231 pages, an introduction and two parts. Part I is entitled "Controller design" and contains 9 chapters (156 pages) while Part II "Controller Implementation" contains 3 chapters (43 pages). The References and Index conclude the book. This structure shows that the main objective of the book is the solution to the robust controller design problem for TDS. The originality of Part II of the book makes it a good reference for engineers and researchers who may be afraid of implementing time-delay controllers. The book intends to "present a systematic and comprehensive treatment of robust Hinf control of TDS in the frequency-domain". However the book only considers SISO systems with a single and constant input delay. It ignores the body of work in the time-domain, using the well-know Lyapunov-Krasovskii approach, concerning Hinf$ control for systems with delays (sometimes time-varying) in the state variables, etc ... On the other hand, it is true that most studies in the time-domain only tackle the state feedback control design problem because dynamic output feedback controllers are much more complex to design.
