Original Abstract

This paper presents a solution of multi-dimensional Model Predictive Control (MPC) based on feed-forward Neural Network (NN) model. Autoregressive NN model with back-propagation learning algorithm is used for system output prediction. It is able to observe system changes and adapt itself, therefore adaptive MPC controller is obtained. MPC is a kind of optimal controller, because a control action is always optimal according to the given criterion. There is shown, how to create multi-dimensional predictive controller. Possibilities of multi-dimensional MPC were tested on laboratory physical model – hot-air tunnel. Two quantities of hot-air tunnel were controlled – the air flow and the temperature. The algorithm was implemented in MATLAB-Simulink and tested on a physical model. Communication between PC and hot-air tunnel was provided by PLC (connected via Ethernet).
