Considering the partial differential equation model of the vibrations of an inclined cable, we are interested in applying robust control technics to stabilize the system with measurement feedback when it is submitted to external disturbances. This paper focuses indeed on the construction of a standard linear infinite dimensional state space system and an H_infinity feedback control of vibrations with partial observation of the state. The control and observation are performed using an active tendon.
