Design of Optimal Tracking Controller for Nonlinear Discrete System with Input Delay Using Information Fusion Estimation Method

Based on the theories of information fusion estimation, information fusion optimal tracking control algorithms of nonlinear discrete system with input delay are proposed. All information with respect to control strategy, including ideal control strategy, expected object trajectory, and system dynamical equation are regarded as measuring information of control strategy. Therefore, the question of optimal control can be transferred into one of information fusion estimation, and the algorithms of optimal tracking control of time-delayed nonlinear discrete-system are given in detail. In the end, the mathematical simulation results show the validity of the algorithms presented in this paper.
