Guaranteed Cost Dynamic Coherent Control for Uncertain Linear Quantum Systems

Abstract

This paper concerns a class of uncertain linear quantum systems subject to quadratic perturbations in the system Hamiltonian. A small gain approach is used to evaluate the performance of the given quantum system. In order to get improved control performance, we propose two methods to design a coherent controller for the system. One is to formulate a static quantum controller by adding a controller Hamiltonian to the given system, and the other is to build a dynamic quantum controller which is directly coupled to the given system. Both controller design methods are given in terms of LMIs and a non-convex equality. Hence, a rank constrained LMI method is used as a numerical procedure. An illustrative example is given to demonstrate the proposed methods and also to make a performance comparison with different controller design methods. Results show that for the same uncertain quantum system, the dynamic quantum controller can offer an improvement in performance over the static quantum controller.

Performance Analysis and Coherent Guaranteed Cost Control for Uncertain Quantum Systems Using Small Gain and Popov Methods

Chengdi Xiang, Ian R. Petersen, Daoyi Dong

This technical note extends applications of the quantum small gain and Popov methods from existing results on robust stability to performance analysis results for a class of uncertain quantum systems. This class of systems involves a nominal linear quantum system and is subject to quadratic perturbations in the system Hamiltonian. Based on these two methods, coherent guaranteed cost controllers are designed for a given quantum system to achieve improved control performance. An illustrative example also shows that the quantum Popov approach can obtain less conservative results than the quantum small gain approach for the same uncertain quantum system.

Performance analysis and coherent guaranteed cost control for uncertain quantum systems

Chengdi Xiang, Ian R. Petersen, Daoyi Dong

This paper presents several results on performance analysis for a class of uncertain linear quantum systems subject to either quadratic or non-quadratic perturbations in the system Hamiltonian. Also, coherent guaranteed cost controllers are designed for the uncertain quantum systems to achieve improved control performance. The coherent controller is realized by adding a control Hamiltonian to the quantum system and its performance is demonstrated by an example.

Coherent $H^{\infty}$ Control for Linear Quantum Systems With Uncertainties in the Interaction Hamiltonian

Chengdi Xiang, Shan Ma, Sen Kuang +1 more

This work conducts robust H∞analysis for a class of quantum systems subject to perturbations in the interaction Hamiltonian. A necessary and sufficient condition for the robustly strict bounded real property of this type of uncertain quantum system is proposed. This paper focuses on the study of coherent robust H∞controller design for quantum systems with uncertainties in the interaction Hamiltonian. The desired controller is connected with the uncertain quantum system through direct and indirect couplings. A necessary and sufficient condition is provided to build a connection between the robust H∞control problem and the scaled H∞control problem. A numerical procedure is provided to obtain coefficients of a coherent controller. An example is presented to illustrate the controller design method.

A Popov approach to performance analysis and coherent guaranteed cost control for uncertain quantum systems

Chengdi Xiang, Ian R. Petersen, Daoyi Dong

This paper considers a Popov approach to analyze the performance of an uncertain quantum system, which is subjected to quadratic perturbations in the system Hamiltonian. To get improved performance for this quantum system, a coherent guaranteed cost controller is designed by adding a control Hamiltonian. In this case, a performance comparison between the original uncertain quantum system and the uncertain quantum system with added coherent controller is carried out for an illustrative example.

Coherent Robust H-Infinity Control of Uncertain Linear Quantum Stochastic Systems

Chengdi Xiang, Ian R. Petersen, Daoyi Dong

This paper considers a class of uncertain linear quantum systems subject to uncertain perturbations in the system Hamiltonian. We present a method to design a coherent robust H-infinity controller so that the closed loop system is robustly stable and achieves a prescribed level of disturbance attenuation with all the admissible uncertainties. An illustrative example shows that for the given system, the method presented in this paper has improved performance over the existing quantum H-infinity control results without considering uncertainty.
