An algorithm, based on quasi-linearization and state variable parametrization by using Chebyshev polynomials, is proposed to solve the nonlinear optimal control problem subject to terminal state constraints and control saturation constraints. By the virtue of the second method of quasi-linearization and state parametrization, the difficult nonlinear optimal control problem is converted into a sequence of standard quadratic programming problems. An example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm
