Abstract :
A hierarchical scheme for the optimal control of large-scale nonlinear time-delay systems is proposed. A linear approximation of the original system is defined about a nominal trajectory. The system is decomposed into N subsystems in such a way that the delay terms as well as interaction terms can be treated as extra inputs to linear nondelay subsystems. A numerical example illustrates this approach.
