title = "Multipoint extension of Pontryagin's Maximum Principle applied to the optimal attitude scheduling of an imaging satellite",
abstract = "A new result in nonlinear optimal control is applied to the scheduling of high-resolution imaging of successive ground targets from an orbiting satellite. The new result is a rigorous statement and proof of Pontryagin's Maximum Principle extended to the multipoint case. The paper focuses on explaining the new result, outlines its proof with intuition in mind, demonstrates its wide applicability, and solves the attitude scheduling problem for a low-budget satellite application.",
