** Model Based Control - Methodology
<<sec:model_based_control_methodology>>
The typical methodology when applying Model Based Control to a plant is schematically shown in Figure [[fig:control-procedure]].
The typical methodology for *Model Based Control* techniques is schematically shown in Figure [[fig:control-procedure]].
It consists of three steps:
1. *Identification or modeling*: $\Longrightarrow$ mathematical model
1. *Identification or modeling*: a mathematical model $G(s)$ representing the plant dynamics is obtained
2. *Translate the specifications into mathematical criteria*:
- _Specifications_: Response Time, Noise Rejection, Maximum input amplitude, Robustness, ...
- _Mathematical Criteria_: Cost Function, Shape of TF
# - Cost Function, Needed Bandwidth, Roll-off, ...
# - $\Longrightarrow$ We will use the $\mathcal{H}_\infty$ Norm
3. *Synthesis*: research of $K$ that satisfies the specifications for the model of the system
- _Mathematical Criteria_: Cost Function, Shape of transfer function, Phase/Gain margin, Roll-Off, ...
3. *Synthesis*: research of a controller $K(s)$ that satisfies the specifications for the model of the system

In this document, we will mainly focus on steps 2 and 3.
In this document, we will suppose a model of the plant is available (step 1 already performed), and we will focus on steps 2 and 3.
Step 2 will be discussed in Section [[sec:modern_interpretation_specification]].
There are two main methods for the controller synthesis (step 3):
- /open/ loop shaping discussed in Section [[sec:open_loop_shaping]]
- /closed/ loop shaping discussed in Sections [[sec:modern_interpretation_specification]] and [[sec:h_infinity_mixed_sensitivity]]
In Section [[sec:open_loop_shaping]], steps 2 and 3 will be described for a control techniques called *classical (open-)loop shaping*.
Then, steps 2 and 3 for the *$\mathcal{H}_\infty$ Loop Shaping* of closed-loop transfer functions will be discussed in Sections [[sec:modern_interpretation_specification]], [[sec:closed-loop-shaping]] and [[sec:h_infinity_mixed_sensitivity]].
** From Classical Control to Robust Control
<<sec:comp_classical_modern_robust_control>>
Many different model based control techniques have been developed since the birth of /classical control theory/ in the '30s.
*Classical control* methods were developed starting from 1930 based on tools such as the Laplace and Fourier transforms.
It was then natural to study systems in the frequency domain using tools such as the Bode and Nyquist plots.
Controllers were manually tuned to optimize criteria such as control bandwidth, gain and phase margins.
The '60s saw the development of control techniques based on a state-space.
Linear algebra and matrices were used instead of the frequency domain tool of the class control theory.
This allows multi-inputs multi-outputs systems to be easily treated.
Kalman introduced the well known /Kalman estimator/ as well the notion of optimality by minimizing quadratic cost functions.
This set of developments is loosely termed *Modern Control* theory.
By the 1980's, modern control theory was shown to have some robustness issues and to lack the intuitive tools that the classical control methods were offering.
This led to a new control theory called *Robust control* that blends the best features of classical and modern techniques.
This robust control theory is the subject of this document.
The three presented control methods are compared in Table [[tab:comparison_control_methods]].
Note that in parallel, there have been numerous other developments, including non-linear control, adaptive control, machine-learning control just to name a few.

** Example System
<<sec:example_system>>
Let's consider the model shown in Figure [[fig:mech_sys_1dof_inertial_contr]].
It could represent a suspension system with a payload to position or isolate using an force actuator and an inertial sensor.
The notations used are listed in Table [[tab:example_notations]].
Throughout this document, multiple examples and practical application of presented control strategies will be provided.
Most of them will be applied on a physical system presented in this section.
This system is shown in Figure [[fig:mech_sys_1dof_inertial_contr]].
It could represent an active suspension stage supporting a payload.
The /inertial/ motion of the payload is measured using an inertial sensor and this is feedback to a force actuator.
Such system could be used to actively isolate the payload (disturbance rejection problem) or to make it follow a trajectory (tracking problem).
The notations used on Figure [[fig:mech_sys_1dof_inertial_contr]] are listed and described in Table [[tab:example_notations]].
