Abstract
The problem of decentralized control is addressed, i.e. the
problem of designing a controller where each control input is
allowed to use only some of the measurements. It is shown that,
for such problems, there does not always exist a sequence of
controllers of bounded order which obtains near-optimal control.
Neither does there exist an infinite-dimentional optimal
controller. Using the insight of the line of the proof of these
results, a heuristic design algorithm is proposed for designing
near-optimal controlers of increasing orders.
