Abstract

This paper investigates the design of block row/column-sparse distributed static output ${H}_2$ feedback control for interconnected systems with polytopic uncertainties. The proposed approach is applicable to the networked systems with publisher/subscriber communication topology. We added two additional terms into the optimisation index function to penalise the number of publishers and subscribers. To optimally select a subset of available publishers and/or subscribers in the network, we introduced both an explicit scheme and an iterative process to handle this problem. We demonstrated the effectiveness by using a numerical example. The example showed that the simultaneous identification of favourable networks topologies and design of controller strategy can be achieved by using the proposed method.
