Hardcover. Optimal control deals with the problem of finding a control law for a given system such that a certain optimality criterion is achieved. An optimal control is a set of differential equations describing the paths of the control variables that minimize the cost functional.This book, Continuous Time Dynamical Systems: State Estimation and Optimal Control with Orthogonal Functions, considers different classes of systems with quadratic performance criteria. It then attempts to find the optimal control law for each class of systems using orthogonal functions that can optimize the given performance criteria. Illustrated throughout with detailed examples, the book covers topics including: Block-pulse functions and shifted Legendre polynomialsState estimation of linear time-invariant systemsLinear optimal control systems incorporating observersOptimal control of systems described by integro-differential equationsLinear-quadratic-Gaussian controlOptimal control of singular systemsOptimal control of time-delay systems with and without reverse time termsOptimal control of second-order nonlinear systemsHierarchical control of linear time-invariant and time-varying systems This book presents the developments in problems of state estimation and optimal control of continuous-time dynamical systems using orthogonal functions since 1975. It deals with both full and reduced-order state estimation and problems of linear time-invariant systems. It also addresses optimal control problems of varieties of continuous-time systems such as linear and nonlinear systems, time-invariant and time-varying systems, as well as delay-free and time-delay systems. Content focuses on development of recursive algorithms for studying state estimation and optimal control problems.

About this title

Synopsis

Optimal control deals with the problem of finding a control law for a given system such that a certain optimality criterion is achieved. An optimal control is a set of differential equations describing the paths of the control variables that minimize the cost functional.

This book, Continuous Time Dynamical Systems: State Estimation and Optimal Control with Orthogonal Functions, considers different classes of systems with quadratic performance criteria. It then attempts to find the optimal control law for each class of systems using orthogonal functions that can optimize the given performance criteria.

Illustrated throughout with detailed examples, the book covers topics including:

Block-pulse functions and shifted Legendre polynomials
State estimation of linear time-invariant systems
Linear optimal control systems incorporating observers
Optimal control of systems described by integro-differential equations
Linear-quadratic-Gaussian control
Optimal control of singular systems
Optimal control of time-delay systems with and without reverse time terms
Optimal control of second-order nonlinear systems
Hierarchical control of linear time-invariant and time-varying systems
