abstract

model predictive controller is widely used in industrial plants. uncertainty is one of the critical issues in real systems. in this paper, the direct adaptive simplified model predictive control (smpc) is proposed for unknown or time varying plants with uncertainties. by estimating the plant step response in each sample, the controller is designed and the controller coefficients are directly calculated. the proposed method is validated via simulations for both slow and fast time varying systems. simulation results indicate the controller ability for tracking references in the presence of plant’s time varying parameters. in addition, an analytical tuning method for adjusting prediction horizon is proposed based on optimization of the objective function. it leads to a simple formula including the model parameters, and an indirect adaptive controller can be designed based on the analytical formula. simulation results indicate a better performance for the tuned controller. finally, experimental tests are performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed methodologies.

Adaptive Tuning of Model Predictive Control Parameters based on Analytical Results

In dealing with model predictive controllers (MPC), controller tuning is a key design step. Various tuning methods are proposed in the literature which can be categorized as heuristic, numerical and analytical methods. Among the available tuning methods, analytical approaches are more interesting and useful. This paper is based on a proposed analytical MPC tuning approach for plants can be appr...

Robust Trajectory Free Model Predictive Control of Biped Robots with Adaptive Gait Length

This paper employs nonlinear disturbance observer (NDO) for robust trajectory-free Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) of biped robots. The NDO is used to reject the additive disturbances caused by parameter uncertainties, unmodeled dynamics, joints friction, and external slow-varying forces acting on the biped robots. In contrary to the slow-varying disturbances, handling sudden pushing ...

Adaptive Horizon Model Predictive Control

Adaptive Horizon Model Predictive Control (AHMPC) is a scheme for varying as needed the horizon length of Model Predictive Control (MPC). Its goal is to achieve stabilization with horizons as small as possible so that MPC can be used on faster or more complicated dynamic processes. Beside the standard requirements of MPC including a terminal cost that is a control Lyapunov function, AHMPC requi...

Economic model predictive control with self-tuning terminal cost

In this paper, we propose an economic model predictive control (MPC) framework with a self-tuning terminal weight, which builds on a recently proposed MPC algorithm with a generalized terminal state constraint. First, given a general time-varying terminal weight, we derive an upper bound on the closed-loop average performance which depends on the limit value of the predicted terminal state. Aft...
