A numerical technique based on Legendre Polynomials for finding optimal control of nonlinear systems with quadratic performance index is presented. An operational matrix of integration and product matrix are introduced and are used to reduce the nonlinear differential equations to the solution of nonlinear algebraic equations. The optimal solution of two classes of first and […]
For linear time-invariant continuous-time singular systems, two new simple approaches, the Kronecker method and the recursive method, are developed in order to estimate the states from the system input-output information via shifted Legendre polynomials (SLP) and a simple observer in the descriptor form. Sufficient conditions for the existence of the present observer are given. The […]
