Abstract: This letter proposes an algorithm for solving finite-time nonlinear optimal control problems. The proposed method employs the Gauss pseudospectral method to transform the optimal control ...

Abstract: This brief is devoted to the power-constrained low-thrust optimal control problem (OCP). First, a general model for a class of power constraints is proposed by defining a piecewise smooth ...
