Definition of Pole Placement

(Pole Assignment, Pole Allocation)


Placing the poles or eigenvalues of the
closed-loop system at specified locations.
Poles can be arbitrarily placed if and only if
the system is controllable.
Pole placement is easier if the system is
given in controllable form.

State Feedback

Closed-Loop Dynamics

Use the state vector to compute the control


action for specified system dynamics.

Substitute for the control

x(k 1) Ax(k ) Bu( k )

A BK x(k ) Bv( k )

Procedure 9.1: Pole Placement


by Equating Coefficients

Theorem 9.1 State Feedback


If the pair (A, B) is controllable, then there
exists a feedback gain matrix K that arbitrarily
assigns the system poles to any set {i , i = 1,
... , n}. Furthermore, if the pair (A, B) is
stabilizable, then the controllable modes can
all be arbitrarily assigned.

1. Evaluate the desired characteristic polynomial


from the specified eigenvalues using the

expression

2. Evaluate the closed-loop characteristic


polynomial using the expression

3. Equate the coefficients of the two polynomials to


obtain equations to be solved for the entries of
the matrix .
