Abstract
In this note, we develop a computational method for solving an optimal control problem which is governed by a switched dynamical system with time delay. Our approach is to parameterize the switching instants as a new parameter vector to be optimized. Then, we derive the required gradient of the cost function which is obtained via solving a number of delay differential equations forward in time. On this basis, the optimal control problem can be solved as a mathematical programming problem.
