Abstract

See full text

Method for creating digital circuits of an MPC controller (2), which implements an approximation technique for Model Predictive Control (MPC), in which a quadratic programming (QP) or linear programming (LP) optimization problem is formulated by starting from a model defined over a set of states of a state (x), wherein the said set of states is partitioned into simplices identified by vertices (v), and wherein said method comprises the steps of a) compute a solution (w*) of the optimization problem and define a control law (u(x)); b) check the stability under the control law (u(x)); c) synthesize a digital circuit by starting from the control law (u(x)) and the vertices (vi).
