The controller is formed by an Integral Sliding Mode (ISM) controller and a NMPC one. The ISM, relying on the knowledge of the nominal continuous-time model of the system and of the piecewise constant control signal generated by the NMPC produces a control action aimed at reducing the difference between the dynamics of the nominal closed-loop system and the actual evolution of the state. The NMPC in this way can be designed based on a system with reduced uncertainty. In order to prove the stability of the overall control scheme, some general Regional ISpS results for continuous-time systems are proven. date: 2009-08 date_type: published place_of_pub: Budapest, Hungary event_title: European Control Conference event_location: Budapest, Hungary event_dates: 23-26 August 2009 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE official_url: http://control.ee.ethz.ch/index.cgi?page=publications;action=details;id=3292 citation: Rubagotti, Matteo and Raimondo, Davide Martino and Ferrara, Antonella and Magni, Lalo Robust model predictive control of continuous-time sampled-data nonlinear systems with integral sliding mode.
