The Kalman–Yakubovich–Popov lemma is a result in system analysis and control theory which states: Given a number
exist if and only if
Moreover, the set
The lemma can be seen as a generalization of the Lyapunov equation in stability theory. It establishes a relation between a linear matrix inequality involving the state space constructs A, B, C and a condition in the frequency domain.
It was derived in 1962 by Rudolf E. Kalman, who brought together results by Vladimir Andreevich Yakubovich and Vasile Mihai Popov.
Multivariable Kalman–Yakubovich–Popov lemma
Given
- for all
ω ∈ R ∪ { ∞ } [ ( j ω I − A ) − 1 B I ] ∗ M [ ( j ω I − A ) − 1 B I ] ≤ 0 - there exists a matrix
P ∈ R n × n P = P T M + [ A T P + P A P B B T P 0 ] ≤ 0.
The corresponding equivalence for strict inequalities holds even if
