| Popis: | The null-space method is able to reduce the number of decision variables in the on-line optimization carried out in model predictive control. This method relies on the construction of a basis for the null space of the equality constraints. This paper proposes a systematic approach based on system-theoretic insights to construct such a basis with a banded structure. This banded structure carries over to the resulting lower-dimensional QP and can be exploited to compute a solution more efficiently. Specifically, solvers that exploit this structure result in a computational complexity that scales linearly with the prediction horizon. In contrast to similar approaches in the literature, the proposed method can be applied to uncontrollable, though stabilizable, systems with multiple inputs. This method is particularly interesting when dealing with systems with large state dimension and long prediction horizons. Finally, the method is applied to a numerical example in combination with both the alternating direction method of multipliers and the accelerated dual gradient projection method to demonstrate its benefits. |
