An improved approach for constrained robust model predictive control (Q1614365)

The authors present a new technique to address constrained robust model predictive control. The main advantage of this new approach with respect to other well-known techniques is the reduced conservativeness. Specifically, the technique described in this paper can be applied to polytopic uncertain systems and is based on the use of several Lyapunov functions, each one corresponding to a different vertex of the uncertainty's polytope.
