Abstract

We propose a new quadratic control problem for linear periodic systems which can be finite or infinite dimensional. We consider both deterministic and stochastic cases. It is a generalization of average cost criterion, which is usually considered for time-invariant systems. We give sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions.

Under stabilizability and detectability conditions we show that the optimal control is given by a periodic feedback which involves the periodic solution of a Riccati equation. The optimal closed-loop system has a unique periodic solution which is globally exponentially asymptotically stable. In the stochastic case we also consider the quadratic problem under partial observation. Under two sets of stabilizability and detectability conditions we obtain the separation principle. The filter equation is not periodic, but we show that it can be effectively replaced by a periodic filter. The theory is illustrated by simple examples.
