Novel Multi-objective Switched Model Predictive Control with Feasibility and Stability Guarantees

摘要

As the relevance of control systems capable of dealing with multiple objectives rises (e.g. being economic while maintaining a certain performance), multi-objective Switched Model Predictive Control combines all the advantages of Model Predictive Control while dealing with multiple objectives. We propose two novel frameworks, a nominal and a robust framework to guarantee recursive feasibility of each Model Predictive Controller under arbitrary switching and assure asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system applying the nominal framework and Input-to-State stability using the robust framework. The presented frameworks employ methods from switched systems, enabling the utilization of a supervisor control instance which allows for complex objectives and multi-objective control. Our numerical example confirms the superior performance of our proposed frameworks compared to a standard Model Predictive Control approach.
