Time-suboptimal feedback control of systems with multiple delays in control

Abstract

An on-line computer control method is suggested for a time-suboptimal feedback control of systems with multiple delays in the control variables. The met-hod, which is developed for bounded control inputs, is given in the form of an efficient algorithm. Tho scheme is essentially based on solving the minimum-time problem using the linear programming method iteratively under real-time computing constraints. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed control algorithm.
