Fourier-Gegenbauer Pseudospectral Method for Solving Periodic Higher-Order Fractional Optimal Control Problems
share
In [1], we inaugurated a new area of optimal control (OC) theory that we called "periodic fractional OC theory," which was developed to find optimal ways to periodically control a fractional dynamic system. The typical mathematical formulation in this area includes the class of periodic fractional OC problems (PFOCPs), which can be accurately solved numerically for a fractional order α in the range 0 < α < 1 using Fourier collocation at equally spaced nodes and Fourier and Gegenbauer quadratures. In this study, we extend this earlier work to cover periodic higher-order fractional OC problems (PHFOCPs) of any positive non-integer fractional order α.
