Purpose Solve continuous-time algebraic Riccati equations (CARE)
Syntax [X,L,G,rr] = care(A,B,Q)
[X,L,G,rr] = care(A,B,Q,R,S,E)
[X,L,G,report] = care(A,B,Q,...,'report')
[X1,X2,L,report] = care(A,B,Q,...,'implicit')
Description [X,L,G,rr] = care(A,B,Q) computes the unique solution of the algebraic
Riccati equation
such that has all its eigenvalues in the open left-half plane. The
matrix is symmetric and called the stabilizing solution of .
[X,L,G,rr] = care(A,B,Q) also returns:
The eigenvalues
L of
The gain matrix
Therelativeresidualrr defined by
[X,L,G,rr] = care(A,B,Q,R,S,E) solves the more general Riccati equation
Here the gain matrix is
and the “closed-loop”
eigenvalues are
L = eig(A-B*G,E).
Two additional syntaxes are provided to help develop applications such as
-optimal control design.
[X,L,G,report] = care(A,B,Q,...,'report')turns off the error messages
when the solution fails to exist and returns a failure report instead.
The value of
report is:
-1 when the associated Hamiltonian pencil has eigenvalues on or very near
the imaginary axis (failure)
-2 when there is no finite solution, i.e., with singular
(failure)
