Multivariable decoupling predictive control with input constraints and its application on chemical process
A constrained decoupling (generalized predictive control) GPC algorithm is proposed for MIMO (malti-input multi-output) system. This algorithm takes account of all constraints of inputs and their increments. By solving matrix equations, the multi-step predictive decoupling controllers are realized. This algorithm need not solve Diophantine functions, and weakens the cross-coupling of the variables. At last the simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of this proposed strategy.
