  • Abstract
    In optimal control problems of switched systems, we may need to find both an optimal continuous input and an optimal switching sequence since the system dynamics vary before and after every switching instant. In the paper, optimal control problems for both continuous-time and discrete-time switched systems are formulated and investigated. In particular, we regard an optimal control problem as a two stage optimization problem and discuss its solution algorithm. The dynamic programming approach is also studied. Difficulties and open problems are discussed
