On the Control of Stochastic Systems

Pages 179-188 | Received 12 Aug 1967, Published online: 27 Feb 2007
 

ABSTRACT

The problem of the optimal feedback control of a class of linear stochastic systems with quadratic performance measure is studied. Employing an analogue of the Pontryagin maximum principle, a set of ordinary differential equations are derived for the gain parameters of the controller. It is shown that these equations exhibit an elemental form of adaptivity. By means of an example, the applicability of the certainty equivalence principle to problems of this type is investigated.
