Learning Model Predictive Control for Iterative Tasks: A Computationally Efficient Approach for Linear System

摘要

A Learning Model Predictive Controller (LMPC) for linear system is presented. The proposed controller builds on previous work on nonlinear LMPC and decreases its computational burden for linear system. The control scheme is reference-free and is able to improve its performance by learning from previous iterations. A convex safe set and a terminal cost function are used in order to guarantee recursive feasibility and non-increasing performance at each iteration. The paper presents the control design approach, and shows how to recursively construct the convex terminal set and the terminal cost from state and input trajectories of previous iterations. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed control logic.
