Abstract
In this paper, a model predictive control algorithm is presented for linear parameter varying systems with both state delays and randomly occurring input saturation. The input saturation is assumed to be occurred randomly with Bernoulli-distributed white sequences. A constant sate feedback law is designed at each time instant to ensure the robust stability of the closed-loop system with respect to polytopic uncertainties. The optimization of model predictive controller is cast into solving a linear matrix inequalities optimization problem. Then, the results are extended to gain-scheduled approach in which a set of state feedback laws are designed for each vertex of the system model. The state feedback law is scheduled by the time varying model parameters to achieve less conservatism in controller design. Finally, two examples are employed to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.
