A numerical approach is proposed in this work for computing a linear quadratic optimal regulator from input-output data. The method is applicable whenever the plant is open-loop stable. The major advantages of the method are two-fold. First, it involves an output feedback control law; hence, no state estimation is required for implementation. Second, the computation of this optimal controller can be conducted without explicit identification of the plant model.

A numerical technique for control system synthesis based on input-output data is presented. The method is applicable when the system is open-loop stable and redundantly actuated. The major merits of the method are as follows. First, the closed-loop system equation may be arbitrarily assigned. Second, explicit knowledge of an open-loop system model is not needed for controller synthesis. Third, the stability of the synthesized system may be verified during the synthesis process; hence, the workability of the controller is ensured.

The problem of robust and optimal output feedback design for interval state-space systems is addressed in this paper. Indeed, an algorithm based on set inversion via interval analysis (SIVIA) combined with interval eigenvalues computation and eigenvalues clustering techniques is proposed to seek for a set of robust gains. This recursive SIVIA-based algorithm allows to approximate with subpaving the set solutions [K] that satisfy the inclusion of the eigenvalues of the closed-loop system in a desired region in the complex plane. Moreover, the LQ tracker design is employed to find from the set solutions [K] the optimal solution that minimizes the inputs/outputs energy and ensures the best behaviors of the closed-loop system. Finally, the effectiveness of the algorithm is illustrated by a real experimentation on a piezoelectric tube actuator.
