Analysis tools based on the construction of PWA Lyapunov functions are provided for certifying the asymptotic stability of the resulting closed-loop system. The main advantage of the proposed controller synthesis approach is that the resulting stabilizing approximate MPC controller can be implemented on chip with sampling times in the order of tens of nanoseconds. date: 2010-12 date_type: published publisher: IEEE place_of_pub: Hilton Atlanta Hotel, Atlanta, December 15-17, 2010 pagerange: 5296 -5301 event_title: Decision and Control (CDC), 2010 49th IEEE Conference on id_number: 10.1109/CDC.2010.5717868 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-1-4244-7745-6 book_title: Decision and Control Conference official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=5717868&isnumber=5716927 funders: This work was supported by the European Commission under project FP7-INFSO-ICT-248858 “MOBY-DIC – Model-based synthesis of digital electronic circuits for embedded control” projects: under project FP7-INFSO-ICT-248858 “MOBY-DIC – Model-based synthesis of digital electronic circuits for embedded control” citation: Bemporad, Alberto and Oliveri, Alberto and Poggi, Tomaso and Storace, Marco Synthesis of stabilizing model predictive controllers via canonical piecewise affine approximations.
