Model predictive control (MPC) is an advanced method of process control that is used to control a process while satisfying a set of constraints. It has been in use in the process industries in chemical plants and oil refineries since the 1980s.

Model predictive control (MPC) is an optimal control technique in which the calculated control actions minimize a cost function for a constrained dynamical system over a finite, receding, horizon. At each time step, an MPC controller receives or estimates the current state of the plant.

In the MPC approach, the current control action is computed on-line rather than using a pre-computed, off-line, control law. A model predictive controller uses, at each sampling instant, the plant’s current input and output measurements, the plant’s current state, and the plant’s model to

Model predictive control (MPC) is a control scheme where a model is used for predicting the future behavior of the system over finite time window, the horizon.

Aug 11, 2021 · Model-based predictive control (MPC) describes a set of advanced control methods, which make use of a process model to predict the future behavior of the controlled system. By solving a—potentially constrained—optimization problem, MPC determines the …

Consider a MPC algorithm for a linear plan with constraints. Assume that there is a terminal constraint x(t + N) = 0 for predicted state x and u(t + N) = 0 for computed future control u If the optimization problem is feasible at time t, then the coordinate origin is stable. Proof. Use the performance index J as a Lyapunov function.

Aug 10, 2020 · MPC is an iterative process of optimizing the predictions of robot states in the future limited horizon while manipulating inputs for a given horizon. The forecasting is achieved using the process model. Thus, a dynamic model is essential while implementing MPC.

The text features material on the following subjects: general MPC elements and algorithms; commercial MPC schemes; generalized predictive control multivariable, robust, constrained nonlinear and hybrid MPC; fast methods for MPC ...

Feb 17, 2025 · In this paper the model predictive control (MPC) method is used as the foundation for a systematic tracking guidance design, dubbed appropriately model predictive guidance (MPG). Unlike most existing work utilizing MPC, the method developed in this paper does not require a quadratic program (QP) solver.
