16 Problem Statement Given: a determinis#c nonlinear dynamical system, ini#al state x 0, a Büchi automaton A (specifica#on) Goal: Find a control input sequence u such that the word L(x(x 0,u)) is accepted by A 16

17 Solu#on Main idea: Use specifica#on automaton to guide constrained reachability computa#ons Compute a word (from the trajectory) that is accepted by the automaton 17

18 Solu#on Environment Logic Automaton Spec: ϕ = <> A & []<> B & []<> C & [] S 18

19 Constrained Reachability Given: sets X 1, X 2 X, horizon length N Goal: Find a control input sequence u and a horizon length N such x 1,...,x N 1 X 1, x N X 2 such that x t+1 =f(x t,u t ) for t = 1,...,N 1 CstReach(X 1,X 2 ) 19

20 Solving Constrained Reachability CstReach(X 1,X 2 ) can be encoded as a mixed- integer linear program using the big- M formula#on Big- M Enforce that state is in union of polyhedra H i x <= K i + M(1- z i ), z i {0,1}, sum(z) = 1 Independent of dynamics 20
