We assume that the switching sequence has a finite length: the unknown switching times and the switching sequence are the optimization parameters. We also assume that a cost may be associated to each switch. The optimal control for this class of systems takes the form of a state feedback, i.e., it is possible to identify a set of regions of the state space such that an optimal switch should occur if and only if the present state belongs to one of them. We show how the tables containing these regions can be computed off-line through a numerical procedure. date: 2002-12 date_type: published publication: Proc. 41th IEEE Conf. on Decision and Control volume: 3 publisher: IEEE place_of_pub: Las Vegas, Nevada USA, December 2002 pagerange: 3182-3187 id_number: 10.1109/CDC.2002.1184360 refereed: TRUE isbn: 0-7803-7516-5 book_title: Decision and Control Conference official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=1184360&isnumber=26568 citation: Bemporad, Alberto and Giua, Alessandro and Seatzu, Carla Synthesis of state-feedback optimal controllers for switched linear systems.
