Quadratic Constraint with Data Losses

© 2018, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. The quadratic constraints, APRC or QDC, presented in Chap. 2 are extended in this chapter for networked control systems (NCS) and applied to a partially decentralised model predictive control scheme for interconnected systems having multiple communication network topologies. The decentralised MPC approach has been employed in previous chapters. This chapter introduces the data from neighbouring subsystems to the quadratic constraint to improve the control performance. These information data are available via the communication channels among the subsystems. The intermittent data losses are also inclusive in the problem formulation in this chapter
