A new spectral synthesis procedure for multivariable regulatorsA method for selecting a multivariable state feedback controller that simultaneously achieves an a priori specification on closed loop eigenvalues and good mode mixing is presented. The problem is solved by projecting a desired modal matrix onto a constraint set containing the null space of the closed-loop state matrix, while assuring that the projection is in the null space. The feedback matrix follows immediately in the formulation. An example involving a helicopter hover controller is presented.
