Application of an anti-windup multivariable continuous-time generalized predictive control to a temperature control of an aluminum plate

Abstract

Multivariable continuous-time generalized predictive control (MCGPC) is well known and applied in many practical cases. However, there is a limit on input values in most of physical systems. The limit affects the stability of control. Therefore, we propose a technique to control a windup caused by the input limitation, and apply it to a temperature control of an aluminum plate.
