Optimal search trajectories for a single platform
David A. Castañón, NILS R. SANDELL · 1979
This paper studies the problem of designing optimal search trajectories for a single search platform. The admissible trajectories are constrained by physical restrictions in terms of dynamical models. Necessary conditions for optimality are obtained in terms of Gateaux differentials; these conditions can be used in iterative algorithms to find stationary points of the minimization.
