US Patent 11494710 Optimization constraint adaptation for long-term target achievement

Methods and systems of optimization constraint adaptation for long-term target achievement. One system includes an electronic processor configured to divide a multiple time-step optimization problem into a plurality of successive single time-step optimization problems. The processor is configured to determine a first optimal variable value for a first single time-step optimization problem and determine a first resulting value of a secondary quantity based on the first optimal variable value. The processor is configured to determine a first divergence of the first resulting value from a first target value and determine a cumulative target divergence based on the first divergence. The processor is configured to determine a first target value adjustment for a second time-step based on the cumulative target divergence, adjust a first original target value of the secondary quantity for the second time-step using the first target value adjustment, and output the adjusted first original target value for display.
