A reformulation of the initial problem will guarantee constraint satisfaction throughout the intersample period. Polytopic inclusions of the continuous trajectory are used in this paper to establish additional constraints leading to a linearly constrained quadratic optimization problem. Continuous time asymptotic stability and continuous-time positive invariance are proven for the reformulated problem. date: 2014-04 date_type: published publication: IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control volume: 59 number: 4 publisher: IEEE pagerange: 1088-1093 id_number: 10.1109/TAC.2013.2285786 refereed: TRUE issn: 0018-9286 official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=6632877&isnumber=6776438 citation: Sopasakis, Pantelis and Patrinos, Panagiotis and Sarimveis, Haralambos MPC for Sampled-Data Linear Systems: guaranteeing continuous-time positive invariance.
