Short summary
In this research the motion planning problem for systems that admit a polynomial description of the system dynamics through differential flatness is tackled by parameterizing the system's so-called flat output as a piecewise polynomial. Sufficient conditions on the spline coefficients are derived ensuring satisfaction of the operating constraints over the entire time horizon and an intuitive relaxation is proposed to tackle conservatism.
