Abstract

This paper is concerned with the automatic computation of the optimal nonlinear feedback control law, starting with a short review of the theory. The synthesis of a control system constitutes the main part of an optimization problem.

We have shown in previous papers that the optimal nonlinear feedback control law satisfies a set of partial differential equations. The knowledge of the feedback law can therefore be considered as equivalent to the computation of the hypersurface corresponding to the solution of these equations.

This hypersurface is computed off-line. Attractive features for real time implementation are discussed.
