Abstract
ABSTRACTIn this paper, optimal control problems for multi-stage and continuous-time linear singular systems are both considered. The singular systems are assumed to be regular and impulse-free. First, a recurrence equation is derived according to Bellman's principle of optimality in dynamic programming. Then, by applying the recurrence equation, bang-bang optimal controls for the control problems with linear objective functions subject to two types of multi-stage singular systems are obtained. Second, employing the principle of optimality, a equation of optimality for settling the optimal control problem subject to a class of continuous-time singular systems is proposed. The optimal control problem may become simpler through solving this equation of optimality. Two numerical examples and a dynamic input–output model are presented to show the effectiveness of the results obtained.
