Efficient reconstructed Legendre algorithm for solving linear-quadratic optimal control problems

In this paper, a new numerical approach via reconstructed Legendre orthogonal polynomials (LOPs) is presented to solve the linear quadratic optimal control problems (LQPs). By using the elegant operational properties of orthogonal polynomials, a computationally attractive algorithm is developed for calculating LQP. A numerical example illustrates the techniques and demonstrates the accuracy and efficiency of these controllers.
