In particular, the MISM controller acts at a faster sampling time than the MPC controller, and reduces the effect of model uncertainties and external disturbances, in order to obtain, at the next sampling instant of the MPC controller, a value of the system state that is as close as possible to the nominal one. To obtain this result, the control variable is composed of two parts: one generated by the MPC controller, and the other by the MISM controller. The a-priori reduction of the disturbance terms turns out to be very useful in order to improve the convergence properties of the MPC controller. date: 2010 date_type: published publisher: IFAC pagerange: 232-237 id_number: 10.3182/20100901-3-IT-2016.00172 refereed: TRUE issn: 1474-6670 book_title: 8th IFAC Symposium on Nonlinear Control Systems official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.3182/20100901-3-IT-2016.00172 citation: Rubagotti, Matteo and Raimondo, Davide Martino and Jones, Colin Neil and Magni, Lalo and Ferrara, Antonella and Morari, Manfred A nonlinear model predictive control scheme with multirate integral sliding mode.
