چکیده

Two different descriptions are used in the literature to formulate the optimal dynamic output feedback control problem for linear dynamical systems with white stochastic parameters and quadratic criteria, called the optimal compensation problem. One describes the matrix valued white stochastic processes involved, using a sum of deterministic matrices each one multiplied by a scalar stochastic process that is independent of the others. Another, that is more general and concise, uses Kronecker products instead. This article relates the statistics of both descriptions and shows their advantages and disadvantages. As to the first description, an important result that comes out is the minimum number of matrices multiplied by scalar, independent, stochastic processes needed to represent a certain matrix valued white stochastic process, together with an associated minimal representation. As to the second description, an important result concerns the generation of all Kronecker products that represent relevant statistics. Both results facilitate the specification of statistics of systems with white stochastic parameters. The second part of this article further exploits these results to perform an U–D factorisation of an algorithm to compute optimal dynamic output feedback controllers (optimal compensators) for linear discretetime systems with white stochastic parameters and quadratic sum criteria. U–D factorisation of this type of algorithm is new. By solving several numerical examples, the U–D factored algorithm is compared with a conventional algorithm.

U-D factorisation of the strengthened discrete-time optimal projection equations

Algorithms for optimal reduced-order dynamic output feedback control of linear discrete-time systems with white stochastic parameters are U-D factored in this paper. U-D factorisation enhances computational accuracy, stability and possibly efficiency. Since U-D factorisation of algorithms for optimal full-order output feedback controller design was recently published by us, this paper focusses ...

QUASI-PERMUTATION REPRESENTATIONS OF SUZtTKI GROUP

By a quasi-permutation matrix we mean a square matrix over the complex field C with non-negative integral trace. Thus every permutation matrix over C is a quasipermutation matrix. For a given finite group G, let p(G) denote the minimal degree of a faithful permutation representation of G (or of a faithful representation of G by permutation matrices), let q(G) denote the minimal degree of a fai...

On the optimal correction of inconsistent matrix equations $AX = B$ and $XC = D$ with orthogonal constraint

This work focuses on the correction of both the coecient and the right hand side matrices of the inconsistent matrix equations $AX = B$ and $XC = D$ with orthogonal constraint. By optimal correction approach, a general representation of the orthogonal solution is obtained. This method is tested on two examples to show that the optimal correction is eective and highly accurate.

Optimal Stochastic Control in Continuous Time with Wiener Processes: General Results and Applications to Optimal Wildlife Management

We present a stochastic optimal control approach to wildlife management. The objective value is the present value of hunting and meat, reduced by the present value of the costs of plant damages and traffic accidents caused by the wildlife population. First, general optimal control functions and value functions are derived. Then, numerically specified optimal control functions and value func...
