In this thesis we are study the problem of designing the controllers that are robust with respect to the parametric uncertainty. In Part I "The Rank-One Problem" we consider the class of systems with restriction that the structure of uncertainty is limited to a vector. In Chapter " Canonical Parametrization of the Dual Problem in Robust Optimization: Non-Rational Case" we extend the class of all

Abstract in UndeterminedIn this paper we present an analysis of the cross-correlation coe±cient between signals at two antennabranches (ports) in the presence of spatially selective interference and additive white gaussian noise. Morespecifically, we look at a ±45 slanted polarization diversity arrangement, which is rotated around the axisperpendicular to the plane containing the antennas. Results
