Computationally efficient robust MPC using optimized constraint tightening

5 Apr 2022  ·  Anilkumar Parsi, Panagiotis Anagnostaras, Andrea Iannelli, Roy S. Smith ·

A robust model predictive control (MPC) method is presented for linear, time-invariant systems affected by bounded additive disturbances. The main contribution is the offline design of a disturbance-affine feedback gain whereby the resulting constraint tightening is minimized. This is achieved by formulating the constraint tightening problem as a convex optimization problem with the feedback term as a variable. The resulting MPC controller has the computational complexity of nominal MPC, and guarantees recursive feasibility, stability and constraint satisfaction. The advantages of the proposed approach compared to existing robust MPC methods are demonstrated using numerical examples.
