Abstract

The effectiveness of model predictive control (MPC) depends on the accuracy of the process model, which is utilized directly to compute the manipulated variable. The effect of various model-plant mismatches on the performance of the classic predictive controller is well known. However, many industrial processes exhibit very complex properties, and determining an adequate model for them is not an easy task. In recent years it has been suggested to employ non-integer order models to describe difficult processes. This leads to fractional order model predictive control (FOMPC) systems. Their properties, e.g. stability, robustness, control quality, have become one of the active research topics in control theory and applications. In the paper, the effect of various plant-model mismatches on the performance of FOMPC is illustrated through a simulation experiment.
