The IMC structure of multi-rate multivariable predictive control systems and an improved algorithm
Multirate multivariable predictive control system with the sampling mechanism that adjusts the plant inputs only once but detects the plant outputs several times during a period is examined. The IMC structure of the system is derived, and its robust stability and zero steady state error characteristics are analyzed. A new control algorithm is developed by adding the variation of the outputs to the index performance. The simulation results show that the method is effective and has zeros steady-state error.
