Abstract
Design of optimal control systems with reduced sensitivity to parameter variations is attempted by employing trajectory sensitivity feedback and minimizing a cost term that includes the trajectory sensitivity. Since the trajectory, sensitivity, cannot be assessed directly, a successive approximation method that results in "near" sensitivity feedback is given for the case of linear regulators. The method may be extended to more general optimal control problems.
