Robust SPR Synthesis for Low-Order Polynomial Segments and Interval Polynomials

Abstract

We prove that, for low-order (n < 5) stable polynomial segments or interval polynomials, there always exists a fixed polynomial such that their ratio is SPR-invariant, thereby providing a rigorous proof of Anderson's claim on SPR synthesis for the fourth-order stable interval polynomials. Moreover, the relationship between SPR synthesis for low-order polynomial segments and SPR synthesis for low-order interval polynomials is also discussed.

A long-standing open problem is solved and extended
