For deterministic MPC schemes, multi-parametric programming was successfully applied to move most computations offline. In this paper we adopt a general approximate multi-parametric algorithm recently suggested for convex problems and propose to apply it to a classical robust WC scheme. This approach enables one to implement a robust MPC controller in real time for systems with polytopic uncertainty, ensuring robust constraint satisfaction and robust convergence to a given bounded set.}, keywords = {approximate multi-parametric convex programming; classical robust WC scheme; deterministic MPC schemes; polytopic uncertainty; robust constraint satisfaction; robust convergence; robust model predictive control schemes; uncertain systems; convex programming; predictive control; robust control; uncertain systems} }
