Abstract
A robust model predictive control approach using linear matrix inequality (LMI) is proposed for uncertain nonlinear systems. A simulation study on a PV Pumping System which comprises a PV generator, a buck DC-DC converter and a DC motor-pump is presented to evaluate the performance of the proposed controller. The LMI-based RMPC algorithm is currently under experimental stage and in near future we will publish the first results if they are satisfactory.
