https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear%E2%80%93quadratic%20regulator | The theory of optimal control is concerned with operating a dynamic system at minimum cost. The case where the system dynamics are described by a set of linear differential equations and the cost is described by a quadratic function is called the LQ problem. One of the main results in the theory is that the solution ... |
