In this paper we consider the problem of stabilizing linear parameter varying (LPV) systems
by means of gain scheduling control. This technique amounts to designing a controller …

Synthesis of gain scheduled controllers for nonlinear plants often requires that a parameter-
varying controller be generated from a finite set of linear time-invariant controllers. We …

In this thesis a parameter dependent control problem for linear parametrically varying (LPV)
plants is studied. LPV systems are finite dimensional linear systems whose state-space …
