Guaranteed $\mathcal{H}_\infty$ performance analysis and controller synthesis for interconnected linear systems from noisy input-state data

Abstract: The increase in available data and complexity of dynamical systems has sparked the research on data-based system performance analysis and controller design. Recent approaches can guarantee performance and robust controller synthesis based on noisy input-state data of a single dynamical system. In this paper, we extend a recent data-based approach for guaranteed performance analysis to distributed analysis of interconnected linear systems. We present a new set of sufficient LMI conditions based on noisy input-state data that guarantees $\mathcal{H}\infty$ performance and have a structure that lends itself well to distributed controller synthesis from data. Sufficient LMI conditions based on noisy data are provided for the existence of a dynamic distributed controller that achieves $\mathcal{H}\infty$ performance. The presented approach enables scalable analysis and control of large-scale interconnected systems from noisy input-state data sets.
