Quasi-min-max MPC for constrained nonlinear systems with guaranteed input-to-state stability

摘要

This paper presents a robust quasi-min-max model predictive control algorithm for a class of nonlinear systems described by linear parameter varying (LPV) systems subject to input constraints and unknown but bounded disturbances. The proposed control algorithm solves a semi-definite programming problem that explicitly incorporates a finite horizon cost function and linear matrix inequalities (LMI) constraints. For the purpose of the recursive feasibility of the optimization, the dual-mode approach is implied. Input-to-state stability (ISS) and quasi-min-max MPC are combined to achieve the closed-loop ISS of the controller with respect to the disturbance in LMI paradigm. Two examples of continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) and couple-mass-spring system are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.
