Non-linear predictive generalised minimum variance state-dependent control

摘要

A control algorithm is introduced for the control of The process model includes two different types of subsystems to provide a variety of means of modelling the system and inferential control of certain outputs is available. A state-dependent output model is driven from an non-linear input subsystem which can include explicit transport-delays. A multi-step predictive control cost function is to be minimised involving weighted error, and either absolute or incremental control signal costing terms. Different patterns of a reduced number of future controls can be used to limit the computational demands.
