Robust control of a two-mass-spring system subject to its input constraints

A robust controller is designed for a system consisting of two carts coupled by a spring. Special attention is given to the input saturations. This problem was posed within a benchmark collection for robust control techniques and treated for example at the 1992 ACC. /spl mu/ analysis and simulation studies illustrate our design.
