  • Abstract
    A numerical method is presented for solving algebraic Riccati equations, as required in the design of optimal linear control systems. The proposed method possesses an almost globally convergent characteristic and, hence, is very suitable for finding the Riccati equation solution of an ill conditioned control system. The new method is simple and easy to implement. Some typical numerical examples are also given for illustration.
