Abstract

The previously developed Predictive Pole Placement (PPP) controller is modified to give enhanced numerical and stability properties by embedding the method in a linear-quadratic formulation to give a linear-quadratic PPP (LQPPP) controller. Input, output and state constraints are considered using an natural quadratic programming (QP) formulation of LQPPP. Illustrative examples are given.
