The aim of the paper is to provide a priori sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability in the Lyapunov sense and input-to-state stability (ISS), while allowing for both the system dynamics and the value function of the MPC cost to be discontinuous functions of the state. The motivation for this work lies in the recent development of MPC for hybrid systems, which are inherently discontinuous and nonlinear. For a particular class of discontinuous piecewise affine systems, a new MPC set-up based on infinity norms is proposed, which is proven to be ISS to bounded additive disturbances. This ISS result does not require continuity of the system dynamics nor of the MPC value function. date: 2007 publication: Assessment and Future Directions of Nonlinear Model Predictive Control volume: 358 publisher: Springer-Verlag pagerange: 93-103 id_number: 10.1007/978-3-540-72699-9_7 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-3-540-72698-2 book_title: Assessment and Future Directions of Nonlinear Model Predictive Control official_url: http://www.springerlink.com/content/b708642w75521623/ citation: Lazar, Mircea and Heemels, W.P.M.H. and Bemporad, Alberto and Weiland, Siep Discrete-time non-smooth nonlinear MPC: Stability and robustness.
