考虑约束非线性系统,提出一种新的具有稳定性保证的经济模型预测控制(Economic model predictive control,EMPC)策略.由于经济性能指标的非凸性和非正定性,引入关于经济最优平衡点的正定辅助函数.利用辅助函数的最优值函数定义原始EMPC优化问题的稳定性约束.应用终端约束集、终端代价函数和局部控制器三要素,建立闭环系统关于经济最优平衡点的渐近稳定性和渐近平均性能.进一步,结合多目标理想点概念,将提出的控制策略用于多个经济性能指标的优化控制,得到稳定多目标EMPC策略.最后,以连续搅拌反应器为例,比较仿真结果验证本文策略的有效性.
The paper presents a new dual-mode nonlinear model predictive control(NMPC) scheme for continuous-time nonlinear systems subject to constraints on the state and control.The idea of control Lyapunov functions for nonlinear systems is used to compute the terminal regions and terminal control laws with some free-parameters in the dual-mode NMPC framework.The parameters of the terminal controller are selected offline to estimate the terminal region as large as possible;and the parameters are optimized online to gain optimality of the terminal controller with respect to given cost functions.Then a dual-mode NMPC algorithm with varying time-horizon is formulated for the constrained system.Recursive feasibility and closed-loop stability of this NMPC are established.The example of a spring-cart is used to demonstrate the advantages of the presented scheme by comparing to the dual-mode NMPC via the linear quadratic regulator(LQR) method.
