Abstract :
It is shown that the classical controllers for dead-time systems, known as Smith predictors, provide a suitable basis for the design of optimal robust stabilizing controllers. Only in the case of an unstable plant a modification of the Smith predictor is necessary. A simple first order dead-time system serves as an illustrative example
