Remarks on the algorithm of sakawa for optimal control problems

From MaRDI portal





The authors present an algorithm for solving optimal control problems of ordinary differential equations with control constraints. This algorithm, based on an approximate minimization of the Hamiltonian, generalizes the one by \textit{Y. Sakawa} and \textit{Y. Shindo} [IEEE Trans. Autom. Control AC-25, 1149-1153 (1980; Zbl 0489.49017)]. The main result is an estimate of the decrease of the cost function at each step of the algorithm. This, however, is not sufficient for proving any meaningful convergence result. Indeed, the algorithm allows to take a sequence of controls equal to the starting point given as input of the algorithm.
