An online distributed game optimal control for heavy haul trains with limited communication
Summary: For heavy haul trains, it is difficult to get global information due to the limited range of communication. This paper proposed a novel distributed optimal control based on game strategy, in which the global optimization is achieved by equilibrizing subsystems' performance just utilizing local information. To online solve the game control, an efficient multivariable extremum seeking algorithm was adapted to approximate the partial differential equation deduced by optimal condition. The convergence of the proposed approximate algorithm is proved by constructing a fictitious Lie bracket system using Lyapunov function. Finally, the proposed distributed optimal control is valuated rigorously by case study according to the configuration of Daqin railway in China.
