Fundamental Philosophy and Status of Qualitative Synthesis of Model Predictive Control

Abstract

In the last decade,theoritical study on model predictive control underwent rapid development by introducing optimal control theory and Lyapunov method,and many important results were achieved.In this paper,the fundamental philosophy in the study on qualitative synthesis of model predictive control is summarized.The main theoritical works on model predictive control with guaranteed stability and performance are reviewed.From the trend of recent study,we point out that the high efficient model predictive control will be the focus of the afterward study in this area.
