Chapter 17. Basic Model-Predictive Control
Objectives of the Chapter
In this chapter we describe a discrete-time implementation of model-based control algorithm called model-predictive control (MPC). The main issues addressed are
Reduction of a control problem into an optimization problem that is solved at every sample time.
Incorporating effect of measured disturbances (feedforward control).
Control of multivariable systems.
Prerequisite Reading

Introduction
In this chapter we will consider discrete-time (computer-control) systems. The control problem is expressed as a problem of minimizing an objective function subject to constraints. The availability of a model allows us ...
