Abstract

The paper analyses the state of applied optimal control theory in automated control synthesis problems and the issues of its practical implementation. The cases of nonlinear and linear plants in a closed and open loop are considered. There are several problems that manifest themselves in the implementation of theoretical solutions or in computer modeling. Such problems include: the choice of the control prediction horizon, the appearance of a static control error, ensuring an adequate stability margin, determining the set values of state variables, and choosing a multidimensional insensitivity zone of the state controller. For each of the problems raised, ways to resolve them are proposed.
