Abstract :
Eigenspace techniques allow the control system designer to use feedback to place eigenvalues and shape eigenvectors so as to modify closed loop dynamic response characteristics to achieve performance objectives. In this paper the theory of eigenspace design is reviewed, extended and applied to several aircraft control problems.
