Constrained robust model predictive control via parameter-dependent dynamic output feedback

This paper considers output feedback robust model predictive control for the quasi-linear parameter varying (quasi-LPV) system with bounded disturbance. The so-called quasi-LPV means that the varying parameters of the linear system are known at the current time, but unknown in the future. The control law is parameterized as a parameter-dependent dynamic output feedback, and the closed-loop stability is specified by the notion of quadratic boundedness. An iterative algorithm is proposed for the on-line synthesis of the control law via convex optimization. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the controller.
