Abstract

In this paper we consider the problem ofL 1 sensitivity minimization for linear plants with commensurate input delays. We describe a procedure for computing the minimum performance, and we characterize optimal solutions. The computations involve solving a one-parameter family of finite-dimensional linear programs. Explicit solutions are presented for important special cases.
