Optimality of Linear Control Systems.

Abstract

It is shown that every linear system with nondynamic feedback is optimal with respect to a quadratic performance index that includes a cross-product term between the state and control. If the index is further generalized to include derivatives of the control, every (sufficiently smooth) linear, finite-dimensional dynamic feedback and feedforward control system is optimal with respect to such an index. Methods of constructing all such indices are indicated, and some practical implications are discussed. (Author)
