PG - 285-90 LID - S0019-0578(12)00167-X [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.isatra.2012.10.005 [doi] AB - The state-dependent Riccati equation (SDRE), as a controller, has been introduced and implemented since the 90s. In this article, the other aspects of this controller are declared which shows the capability of this technique. First, a general case which has control nonlinearities and time varying weighting matrix Q is solved with three approaches: exact solution (ES), online control update (OCU) and power series approximation (PSA). The proposed PSA in this paper is able to deal with time varying or state-dependent Q in nonlinear systems. As a result of having the solution of nonlinear systems with complex Q containing constraints, using OCU and proposed PSA, a method is introduced to prevent the collision of an end-effector of a robot and an obstacle which shows the adaptability of the SDRE controller. Two examples to support the idea are presented and conferred. Supplementing constraints to the SDRE via matrix Q, this approach is named a modified SDRE. CI - Copyright (c) 2012 ISA.
