The PFDL-Model-Free Adaptive Predictive Control for a Class of Discrete-Time Nonlinear Systems

Abstract

In this paper, a novel partial form dynamic linearization (PFDL) data-driven model-free adaptive predictive control (MFAPC) method is proposed for a class of discrete-time single-input single-output nonlinear systems. The main contributions of this paper are that we combine the concept of MPC with MFAC together to propose a novel MFAPC method. We prove the bounded-input bounded-output stability and tracking error monotonic convergence of the proposed method; Moreover, we discuss the possible relationship between the current PFDL-MFAC and the proposed PFDL-MFAPC. The simulation and experiment are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed MFAPC.
