ABSTRACT:
We consider the problem of linear quadratic regulator (LQR) performance for cascade control
structures of series coupled systems. The necessary and sufficient condition for the linear
quadratic performance of a cascade control structure to achieve the same performance as
any given centralized LQR is obtained. The cascade problem could be seen as a special case
of the network control problem with a special network structure. The results presented show
that decentralized control is possible with some natural fundamental limitations in this
particular case. Also, a constructive proof is given for the inverse LQR problem that can be
used to calculate the decentralized LQR from a given centralized one.
