Extended horizon predictive control

Abstract Details

1992, Doctor of Philosophy, Case Western Reserve University, Systems and Control Engineering.
The design of extended horizon predictive control for stochastic systems having uncertain deadtimes and nonminimum phase characteristics is considered. A unified design method is developed. New and existing predictive controllers are described in a unified mathematical formulation. This formulation has a special mathematical structure that greatly reduces the computational effort required to calculate control inputs. In particular, the savings in floating point operations varies as the cube of the number of system outputs, the square of the model order, and linearly with the number of the system inputs and prediction horizon. New stability results are derived for this general class of predictive controllers. Design methods based upon the specification of closed loop transient response properties are examined. The application of this general class of predictive controllers to periodic control problems is explored. It is also shown how the use of these controllers can be interpreted as the design of a controller and an adjustable D/A converter, that allows for complete specification of the closed loop transfer function during the digital control of continuous time systems.
