Abstract

A new approach for investigating the exact controllability of the one-dimensional wave equation with variable coefficients on a finite interval, subjected to boundary conditions of mixed type, and to determine the controls explicitly is suggested. The control process is carried out either by one of the boundary functions or by the right hand side of the equation. The method of compactly supported control is generalized and applied for reducing the problem to a countable system of linear integral constraints. That system is treated as problem of moments. \(L^1\) and \(L^2\)-optimal controls are found explicitly, necessary and sufficient conditions of exact controllability are obtained.
