Abstract

This paper represents the optimal control of nonlinear systems based upon the associated angular approach. In the latter a general class of nonlinear systems is converted to two associated systems: a nonlinear equation on a sphere (spherical), and a radial differential system. By decoupling the two subsystems and considering only the radial system, a finite-horizon radial optimal control is designed which minimizes the radial cost function. Successive approximation technique is then introduced in which the equations are replaced by a sequence of linear, time-varying approximations. The resulting optimal control is then applied to the original angular system. This control forces the original angular system to the origin.
