Abstract
This paper presents an algorithm based on Higher Derivative Method (HDM) for the indirect solution of equality constrained optimal control problems. The first order necessary conditions for the indirect formulation of such problems leads to two-point boundary value problems (BVPs). The HDM approach uses nth derivative to get 2n order accuracy at each node. The proposed HDM approach enables high accuracy with small number of elements/nodes in the discretization. Examples are presented to illustrate the efficacy of the proposed HDM approach.
