Computer science subject: TJ Mechanical engineering and machinery description: This paper copes with the problem of satisfying input and/or state hard constraints in set-point tracking problems. Stability is guaranteed by synthesizing a Lyapunov quadratic function for the system, and by imposing that the terminal state lies within a level set of the function. Procedures to maximize the volume of such an ellipsoidal set are provided, and interiorpoint methods to solve on-line optimization are considered. publisher: Elsevier date: 1998-10 type: Article type: PeerReviewed identifier: Bemporad, Alberto A predictive controller with artificial Lyapunov function for linear systems with input/state constraints.
