Abstract

This paper considers the stochastic LQR problem for systems with input delay and stochastic parameter uncertainties in the state and input matrices. The problem is known to be difficult due to the presence of interactions among the delayed input channels and the stochastic parameter uncertainties in the channels. The key to our approach is to convert the LQR control problem into an optimization one in a Hilbert space for an associated backward stochastic model and then obtain the optimal solution to the stochastic LQR problem by exploiting the dynamic programming approach. Our solution is given in terms of two generalized Riccati difference equations (RDEs) of the same dimension as that of the plant.
