Abstract :
A new solution to the quadratic optimal tracking problem in linear multivariable discrete-time systems is presented. The approach is based on polynomial input-output models. The optimal control law consists of a plant output feedback and a reference feedforward. It is obtained by performing spectral factorization and then solving two matrix polynomial equations. The design procedure is simple and well suited for systems with inaccessible states.
