The proposed solution is based on predicting the evolution of the constrained vector and, accordingly, selecting online the future reference based on both the current state and the desired set-point changes. The achievable performance is first investigated via simulations, and compared with the one obtained via a receding horizon controller which uses an online mathematical programming solver. Finally, an analysis is carried out so as to establish the stability and offset-free properties of the method UR - http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=381285&isnumber=8643 A1 - Bemporad, Alberto A1 - Mosca, Edoardo M1 - 3 Y1 - 1994/// PB - IEEE T2 - Conference. on Control Applications KW - constrained vector; feedback control; inequality constraints; intelligent control; nonlinear systems; offset-free properties; predictive reference control; stability; constraint handling; feedback; intelligent control; model reference adaptive control systems; nonlinear systems; predictive control; stability ER -
