Abstract

A method for the optimal control of linear time-varying systems with a quadratic cost functional is proposed. The state and control variables are expanded in the shifted Legendre series, and an algorithm is provided for approximating the system dynamics, boundary conditions and performance index. The necessary condition of optimality is then derived as a system of linear algebraic equations. Numerical examples are included to demonstrate the validitiy and applicability of the technique.
