  • Abstract
    Optimal control policies for a class of systems described by differential-difference equations are obtained. The method of solution is a transformation of the original problem into an equivalent ordinary optimal control problem. Standard techniques then apply from which the control is obtained in either open-loop or closed-loop form.
