  • Abstract
    The applicability of employing parameter-dependent control to a nuclear pressurized water reactor is investigated. The synthesis technique produces a controller which achieves specified performance against the worst-case time variation of a measurable parameter which enters the plant in a linear fractional manner. The plant can thus have widely varying dynamics over the operating range. The controllers designed perform well over the entire operating range
