[HW5] What should be interpolated

Hi,
I'm not quite sure if I understood what has to be interpolated in HW5. From the assignment it seems that the controller is discrete and also the controlled system is discrete, so I don’t understand how the control system can accept a non-quantized value.
Or should I look at the assignment that controller is discrete (because it’s just the tables), but the system is continues (or has finer quantization at input). So we can interpolate input into the system from the two most optimal outputs of the controller?
If so, should we use interpolation only in the simulation section, or somehow it should be also used when we design the J and uopt tables?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I must admit that the assignment might be a bit ambiguous. Both the system and the controller are continuous. They are quantized only for the purpose of the control design. We did the same in the exercise at the lab session. You are supposed to use the interpolation for both the states (when evaluating \(J^\ast\)) and for controls (when simulating the system response).
