Abstract :
This paper presents a new application of structured H∞ synthesis to tune self-scheduled controllers. Newly available MATLAB-based tools allow to tune fixed-structure linear controllers while satisfying H∞ constraints. Moreover multi-model synthesis capabilities can extend their application to self-scheduled controllers. This technique is successfully applied to the attitude control of a launch vehicle in atmospheric ascent phase.
