چکیده

We propose a Hamilton-Jacobi equation approach for computing time-optimal trajectories of a vehicle which travels under certain curvature constraints. We derive a class of Hamilton-Jacobi equations which models such motions; it unifies two well-known vehicular models, the Dubins’ and Reeds-Shepp’s cars, and gives further generalizations. We show that the value function of the control problem solves the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the viscosity sense. Numerical schemes and results that illustrate the versatility of the Hamilton-Jacobi approach are presented for the two dimensional case.

On Time-optimal Trajectories for a Car-like Robot with One Trailer

In addition to the theoretical value of challenging optimal control problmes, recent progress in autonomous vehicles mandates further research in optimal motion planning for wheeled vehicles. Since current numerical optimal control techniques suffer from either the curse of dimensionality, e.g. the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation, or the curse of complexity, e.g. pseudospectral optimal control...

Optimal Control for Descriptor Systems: Tracking Problem (RESEARCH NOTE)

Singular systems have been studied extensively during the last two decades due Abstract to their many practical applications. Such systems possess numerous properties not shared by the well-known state variable systems. This paper considers the linear tracking problem for the continuous-time singular systems. The Hamilton-Jacobi theory is used in order to compute the optimal control and associa...

Deterministic state constrained optimal control problems without controllability assumptions

In the present paper, we consider nonlinear optimal control problems with constraints on the state of the system. We are interested in the characterization of the value function without any controllability assumption. In the unconstrained case, it is possible to derive a characterization of the value function by means of a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation. This equation expresses the beha...

Singular Trajectories of Control-Affine Systems

When applying methods of optimal control to motion planning or stabilization problems, some theoretical or numerical difficulties may arise, due to the presence of specific trajectories, namely, singular minimizing trajectories of the underlying optimal control problem. In this article, we provide characterizations for singular trajectories of control-affine systems. We prove that, under generi...
