This lecture provides an overview of optimal control theory. Beginning with a review of optimization, we introduce the notion of Lagrange multipliers and provide a summary of the Pontryagin's maximum principle.

Lecture Outline

  1. Introduction: two degree of freedom design and trajectory generation
  2. Review of optimization: necessary conditions for extrema, with and without constraints
  3. Optimal control: Pontryagin Maximum Principle
  4. Examples: bang-bang control and scalar linear system (if time)
