Figure 8-2. Block Diagram Showing the Basic Setup for H-Infinity Synthesis
Figure 8-2 shows a block diagram with the basic setup for H synthesis
where closed-loop transfer matrix H relates the two exogenous inputs w
and w
to the two outputs z
2
The design is based on H, the closed-loop transfer matrix relating the noises
w
and w
to the signals z

The entries of the closed-loop transfer matrix can be interpreted as the
(normalized) transfer functions from the process and sensor noises to
the actuator and output, respectively.
The singular values of H are shown in the top left plot of the H Synthesis
window.
The controller C is chosen to minimize the -entropy of the closed-loop
transfer matrix H, given by:
