A Feedback for an Infinite-Dimensional Linear-Quadratic Control Problem with a Fixed Terminal State
Institute of Control Engineering, Technical University of Szczecin Gen. Sikorskiego 37, 70-313 Szczecin, Poland
This paper deals with the linearquadratic control problem (LQCP) with a fixed terminal state, for infinite-dimensional systems defined by evolution operators. It is shown that, under a suitable assumption involving the reachability set, the optimal control exists and is unique. To solve the problem effectively, its connection with the minimum-energy control for the perturbed system is exploited. Both open-loop and feedback descriptions of the optimal control are given. Important relationships between the controllability of the system and properties of the optimal control are described, and a feedback approximation to the optimal control is given.
