How violent are fast controls?

From MaRDI portal





As is clearly stated in the title, this paper investigates the question of the asymptotic growth of the minimum norm control to reach a fixed target as the horizon is decreased. Consider the linear control system: \[ \dot x=Ax+Bu,\quad x(0)=0,\quad x\in {\mathbb{R}}^ n,\quad u\in {\mathbb{R}}^ m \] where A and B are fixed matrices; the target \(\xi\) is to be reached at time T: \(x(T;u)=\xi\). One seeks the control of minimal \(L^ 2\) norm: \[ \| u\|^ 2=\int^{T}_{0}\| u(t)\|^ 2dt,\quad \| u_{opt}\| =\min \{\| u\| /x(T;u)=\xi \}. \] Let \(C_ T\) be defined by: \[ C_ T:\xi \to u_{opt}(.;T,\xi). \] The system is supposed to be controllable. Let K be the smallest integer such that \(rank[B,AB,...,A^ kB]=n\). Then the main result of the paper is that \(\| C_ T\| \sim \gamma T^{-(k+)}\) as \(T\to 0\).
