✦ Synopsis


The present work focuses on robust predictive control (RPC) of uncertain processes and proposes a new approach based on orthonormal series function modeling. In such unstructured modeling, the output signal is described as a weighted sum of orthonormal functions that uses approximative information about the time constant of the process. Due to an e$cient uncertainty representation, this kind of modeling is advantageous in the RPC context, even for constrained systems and processes with integral action. The stability of the closed-loop system is guaranteed by the setting of su$cient conditions for the selection of the controller prediction horizon. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the performance of this new RPC algorithm.
