This paper presents a robust feedback control solution for systemswithmultiplemanipulated inputs and a singlemeasurable output.
A structure of parallel controllers achieves robust stability and robust disturbance rejection. Each controller uses the least possible
amount of feedback at each frequency. The controller design is carried out in the Quantitative Feedback Theory framework. The
method pursues a smart load sharing along the frequency spectrum, where each branch must either collaborate in the control task
or be inhibited at each frequency. This reduces useless fatigue and saturation risk of actuators. Different examples illustrate the
ability to deal with complex control problems that current MISO methodologies cannot solve.Main control challenges arise due to
the uncertainty of plant and disturbance models and when a fast-slow hierarchy of plants cannot be uniquely established.
