Abstract

In the present paper, a direct numerical technique for solving fractional optimal control problems based on an orthonormal wavelet, is introduced. First we approximate the involved functions by Sine-Cosine wavelet basis; then, an operational matrix is used to transform the given problem into a linear system of algebraic equations, which is easier. In fact operational matrix of Riemann-Liouville fractional integration and derivative of Sine-Cosine wavelet are employed to achieve a linear algebraic equation. The mentioned matrices are derived via hat functions. The solution of transformed system, gives us the solution of original problem. Two numerical examples are also given. Finally, the paper is ended with conclusion

Summary

Introduction

Fractional calculus is one of the interesting issues that attract many scientists. The main idea of applying an orthogonal basis is reduction of considered problem into a system of algebraic equations, by truncating series of orthogonal basis functions for the solution of the problem and applying operational matrix of integration and differentiation to eliminate the integral and derivative operations whenever needed, greatly simplifying the problem. These matrices can be uniquely determined based on the particular orthogonal functions. Two new operational matrices are introduced and a direct method based on Sine-Cosine wavelet with their fractional integration and differentiation operational matrix is proposed to solve a FOCP and a variational problem.
