Abstract

This paper deals with real-time control of a thermo-optical device. A polynomial approximation of the optimal Model Predictive Control (MPC) feedback law is employed as a controller. Such an approximate controller enjoys the key benefits of MPC schemes, namely it provides all-time constraint satisfaction and closed-loop stability guarantees. The main advantage of the proposed approximation scheme is that it can be implemented in real time using very limited computational resources.
