Abstract
A method to solve nonlinear optimal control problems is proposed in
this work. The method implements an approximating sequence of time-varying linear quadratic regulators that converge to the solution of the
original, nonlinear problem. Each subproblem is solved by manipulating
the state transition matrix of the state-costate dynamics. Hard, soft,
and mixed boundary conditions are handled. The presented method is
a modified version of an algorithm known as “approximating sequence
of Riccati equations.” Sample problems in astrodynamics are treated to
show the effectiveness of the method, whose limitations are also discussed.
