Abstract
In this paper, we consider the use of a linear periodic controller (LPC) for the control of linear time-invariant (LTI) plants in the decentralized setting. If a plant has an unstable decentralized fixed mode (DFM), it is well known that no decentralized LTI controller can stabilize it, let alone provide good performance. Here we show that, if the plant is centrally controllable and observable and the graph associated with the plant is strongly connected, then even if the plant has an unstable DFM, we can still design a decentralized LPC to provide LQR performance as close to the centralized optimal performance as desired; the proposed controller in each channel consists of a sampler, a zero-order-hold, and a discrete-time linear periodic compensator, which makes it easy to implement.
