  • Abstract
    This paper presents a neural model-based predictive control (MFC) scheme for nonlinear systems. A neural network is used to predict future outputs of the system, or more specifically, to predict the free response. A linear model is used to obtain the forced response of the system, providing an efficient and easy-implementable MFC algorithm to cope with nonlinear systems subject to disturbances. The control scheme has been applied to the distributed collector field of a solar power plant. Results are shown in the paper.
