Computation of open-loop inputs for uniformly ensemble controllable systems

Abstract

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>This paper presents computational methods for families of linear systems depending on a parameter. Such a family is called ensemble controllable if for any family of parameter-dependent target states and any neighborhood of it there is a parameter-independent input steering the origin into the neighborhood. Assuming that a family of systems is ensemble controllable we present methods to construct suitable open-loop input functions. Our approach to solve this infinite-dimensional task is based on a combination of methods from the theory of linear integral equations and finite-dimensional control theory.</p>
