Continuous-Time, Finite-Horizon LQR
A tutorial for using matlab to stabilize a trajectory of a non-linear system, using a finite-horizon continuous-time Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR). The function trajectoryLqr.m solves the finite-horizon continuous-time LQR problem for a time-varying plant. This is used to generate a trajectory tracking controller. Includes multiple example files to show usage.
The image shows an estimation of the backward-reachable set of states along the trajectory which can be stabilized to the target along the trajectory of choice using the finite-horizon continuous-time LQR controller.
