  • Abstract
    OPTRAGEN is a MATLAB toolbox for numerically solving optimal control problems. OPTRAGEN translates optimal control problems to nonlinear programming problems. The transcription of optimal control problem (OCP) to nonlinear programming (NLP) problem is done by parameterizing trajectories as splines. The output of the transcription is a cost function and a constraint function that can be interfaced with any commercially available nonlinear programming solver. OPTRAGEN can be considered to be a parser that translates optimal control problems to nonlinear programming problems, and is not dependent on any nonlinear programming solver
