Separable problems in optimal cooperative control of networked systems
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This thesis characterizes a class of separable optimal cooperative control problems. We show that a simple factorization condition provides a unified technique that allows the problem to separate into several independent subproblems. The technique generalizes many of the previously known computational approaches and further enables us to solve a new class of previously unsolvable problems. The optimal solutions are computed explicitly in a distributed fashion via a series of Riccati equations whose size grows linearly with the problem size, therefore the optimal cooperative control can be easily computed via standard techniques for conventional optimal control problems. Furthermore, the separated problems provide a better understanding of the dynamics of the optimal controller. We illustrate two application examples including a salvo guidance problem and a network design problem for a team of networked missiles.
