TWO CLASSES OF OPTIMUM LINEAR SYSTEMS.
Abstract
A fundamental consideration in the design of control systems is the various type of constraints involving the input or inputs to the control object. In some cases each input is generated by a different source and, consequently, a specific constraint is applied to each input. In other systems one source supplies all the inputs and the constraint applies to the totality of inputs. The latter case is presented with its object to determine the control function to transfer the system from an initial condition to a final state. Two classes of systems are presented: (l) Those linear systems for which the optimum control function is identical under two constraints of bounded power and bounded total energy; and (2) those linear systems for which the optimum control function with bounded power constraint can be approximated, with a desired accuracy, by the control function with a 'modified' total energy constraint.
