Abstract :
A new sharp lower bound for the solution of the algebraic Riccati equation of optimal control is presented for the case when the state cost matrix is positive definite. The bound is easier to evaluate than previous sharp bounds. It is then used in the derivation of a geometric convergence rate for the Kleinman algorithm (an iterative method for solving the algebraic Riccati equation).
