Distributed Model Predictive Control of a Four-tank System
نویسندگان
چکیده
A distributed model predictive control (DMPC) framework is proposed. The physical plant structure and the plant mathematical model are used to partition the control duties over self-sufficient estimation and control nodes. Linear models and local measurements at the nodes are used to estimate the relevant plant states. This information is then used in the model predictive control calculations. Communication among relevant nodes during estimation and control calculations provides improvement over the performance of completely decentralized controllers. The DMPC framework is demonstrated for the level control of an interacting four-tank system. The performance of the DMPC system for disturbance rejection is compared with other control configurations. The results indicate that the performance of the proposed framework provides significant improvement over completely decentralized MPC controllers, and approaches the performance of a fully centralized design.

Hybrid model predictive control of a nonlinear three-tank system based on the proposed compact form of piecewise affine model
In this paper, a predictive control based on the proposed hybrid model is designed to control the fluid height in a three-tank system with nonlinear dynamics whose operating mode depends on the instantaneous amount of system states. The use of nonlinear hybrid model in predictive control leads to a problem of mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) which is very complex and time consuming t...
