  2. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    Control theory is a field of control engineering and applied ... The advantage of this technique is that it results in a simplification of the mathematics; ...

  3. Optimal control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_control

    Optimal control problem benchmark (Luus) with an integral objective, inequality, and differential constraint. Optimal control theory is a branch of control theory that deals with finding a control for a dynamical system over a period of time such that an objective function is optimized. [1]

  5. Mathematical optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_optimization

    Optimal control theory is a generalization of the calculus of variations which introduces control policies. Dynamic programming is the approach to solve the stochastic optimization problem with stochastic, randomness, and unknown model parameters. It studies the case in which the optimization strategy is based on splitting the problem into ...

  6. Linear system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_system

    In systems theory, a linear system is a mathematical model of a system based on the use of a linear operator.Linear systems typically exhibit features and properties that are much simpler than the nonlinear case.

  7. Control (optimal control theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_(optimal_control...

    In optimal control theory, a control is a variable chosen by the controller or agent to manipulate state variables, similar to an actual control valve. Unlike the state variable, it does not have a predetermined equation of motion . [ 1 ]

  8. Observability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observability

    Observability is a measure of how well internal states of a system can be inferred from knowledge of its external outputs. In control theory, the observability and controllability of a linear system are mathematical duals.

  9. H-infinity methods in control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-infinity_methods_in...

    H ∞ (i.e. "H-infinity") methods are used in control theory to synthesize controllers to achieve stabilization with guaranteed performance. To use H ∞ methods, a control designer expresses the control problem as a mathematical optimization problem and then finds the controller that solves this optimization.
