  • Abstract
    A minimum energy control problem is considered for commutative bilinear systems with and without terminal constraints. Optimal controls are shown to be constant vectors determined by the boundary conditions. Sufficient conditions are derived for uniqueness of the optimal control in the absence of a terminal constraint. A class of physical bilinear systems is discussed which possesses the commutative property.
