In this work, we demonstrate how constrained Moving Horizon Estimation (MHE) and Model Predictive Control (MPC) can be simultaneously addressed via multiparametric programming. First, we present a method for obtaining the error dynamics of constrained MHE for linear, time-invariant systems by solving the constrained optimization problem of the MHE by multi-parametric programming methods. Set-theoretical methods are then used to derive bounds on the estimation error -it is shown that the estimation error is bounded in an invariant set for the error dynamics described by a set of linear inequalities. The error dynamics and the error bounds can then be used for the design of a robust output feedback explicit/multi-parametric MPC yielding a simultaneous estimation and control design which is illustrated with an example of robust tube-based MPC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
