%T Model-varying predictive control of a nonlinear system %I Automatic Control Laboratory, ETH, Zurich %D 2000 %L eprints2259 %X Model Predictive Control (MPC) can be used for nonlinear systems if they are working around an operating point. If the operating point is moved away from the nominal working point the controller is less effective due to model mismatch. This situation can be tackled by using a Model-Varying Predictive Controller (MVPC), which changes its internal model, switching among a set of liner models, according to the working point. %A C.
