Abstract

In recent few decades, linear quadratic optimal control problems have achieved great improvements in theoretical and practical perspectives. For a linear quadratic optimal control problem, it is well known that the optimal feedback control is characterized by the solution of a Riccati differential equation, which cannot be solved exactly in many cases, and sometimes the optimal feedback control will be a complex time-oriented function. In this paper, we introduce a parametric optimal control problem of uncertain linear quadratic model and propose an approximation method to solve it for simplifying the expression of optimal control. A theorem is given to ensure the solvability of optimal parameter. Besides, the analytical expressions of optimal control and optimal value are derived by using the proposed approximation method. Finally, an inventory-promotion problem is dealt with to illustrate the efficiency of the results and the practicability of the model.
