Abstract :
Closed-form control laws are developed for continuous, linear, time-varying (LTV) systems based on approximate solutions to a receding-horizon control problem. These control laws can be derived in the first- or higher order closed forms. Once obtained, the control laws need no explicit gain-scheduling or online integrations to implement. The notion of practical stability is used, and practical or uniform asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system, depending on conditions imposed on the system, is established
