Despite recent advances, a key aspect remains unclear: how and to what extent do noise-corrupted data impact control performance? In this work, we provide a quantitative answer to this question based on the model-mismatch level incurred during a preliminary system identification phase. We formulate a Behavioral version of the Input-Output Parametrization (BIOP) for the optimal predictive control of unknown systems using output-feedback dynamic control policies. The main advantages of the proposed framework are that 1) the state-space parameters and the initial state need not be specified for controller synthesis, 2) it can be used in combination with state-of-the-art impulse response estimators, and 3) it allows to recover suboptimality results on learning the Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller, therefore revealing how the model-mismatch level may affect the performance. Specifically, it is shown that the performance degrades linearly with the model-mismatch incurred by either classical or behavioral-based system identification.Automation & Control SystemsEngineering, Electrical & ElectronicAutomation & Control SystemsEngineeringtext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
