  • Abstract
    It is argued that the most appropriate sensitivity measure in time-optimal control systems is a norm of the terminal error. How do nominally equivalent open-loop and closed-loop time-optimal systems compare with respect to this sensitivity measure? It is shown via an example that the answer depends on the location of the initial point and even on the direction of parameter variations.
