Usual control approaches for hybrid nets can be divided into discrete-time and continuous-time approaches. Continuous-time approaches are usually more precise, but can be computationally prohibitive. Discrete-time approaches are less complex, but can entail mode-mismatch errors due to fixed time discretization. This work proposes an optimization-based event-driven control approach that applies on continuous time models and where the control actions change when discrete events occur. Such an approach is computationally feasible for systems of interest in practice and avoids mode-mismatch errors. In order to handle modelling errors and exogenous disturbances, the proposed approach is implemented in a closed-loop strategy based on event-driven model predictive control date: 2014-08 date_type: published publication: International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control volume: 24 number: 12 publisher: Wiley-Blackwell pagerange: 1724-1742 id_number: 10.1002/rnc.2958 refereed: TRUE issn: 1049-8923 official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/rnc.2958 citation: Júlvez, Jorge and Di Cairano, Stefano and Bemporad, Alberto and Mahulea, Cristian Event-driven model predictive control of timed hybrid Petri nets.
