Model reference adaptive H∞ control for distributed parameter systems of hyperbolic type by finite dimensional controllers

The problem of constructing model reference adaptive H-infinity control for distributed parameters systems of hyperbolic type is considered in this paper. Distributed parameters systems are infinite dimensional processes, but the proposed control scheme is constructed from finite dimensional controllers. The stabilizing control signal is added to regulate the effect of spill-over terms, and it is derived as a solution of certain H-infinity control problem where spill-overs are considered as external disturbances to the process.
