Abstract

In this paper, an optimal control model based on an improved HIV model is considered. Using of condom, screening of unaware infectives and incentive for treatment of the infected are used as the control items. Base on the same objective functional to minimize the unaware individuals and the cost of three kinds control at a given stage, we give four different optimal strategies with four different control suppose. By comparing the optimal strategies and dynamic trend of our model, we find that the dynamic trends are almost the same and the three different controls play different role, but simulation also shows that the screening control of unaware infectives play a relative small role when compare with the control of condom use and incentive control for treatment.
