Abstract

Two recent contributions to the literature have shown how to use offline analysis to reduce online computation while enlarging the feasible regions of a control law. Both methods make use of an augmented system so this paper gives some proper discussion of their differences and similarities and in particular it gives new insight to the structure of the solutions. Following on the paper then discusses the potential of both methods and makes proposal for future developments.
