Loop transfer recovery (LTR) has gained some prominence over the last years. In this paper, we briefly overview the main design features of the LQG/LTR controller both at the input and at the output of the plant, using the delta operator formulation that has been recently developed in [1]. Two discrete time compensators with LTR capability are then derived following the LTR design approach proposed in [2] for the continuous-time case. These compensators are shown to outperform their underlying LQG/LTR controllers from the perspective of recovery error. Of particular importance, they share the same degree of recovery as the continuous time compensators of [2] and [3] when the sampling period goes to zero.
