Energetically Optimal Finite-Time Stabilization of Generalized Homogeneous Linear Systems

The problem of finite-time stabilization of a linear plant with an optimization of both a settling time and an averaged/weighted control energy is studied using the concept of generalized homogeneity. It is shown that the optimal finite-time stabilizing control in this case can be designed by means of solving a simple linear algebraic equation. Robustness of the obtained control law is studied.
