NMPC controller applied to the operation of an internal combustion engine: formulation and solution of the optimization problem in real time

Numerical optimization solve problems efficiently where such efficiency is focused on the speed with which the optimal x* is achieved, is open line of research and strong work in the scientific community in order to achieve control systems in dynamic processes with response times of the order of milliseconds. A clear example of this, is the implementation of optimal controller’s combustion engines. For subsequent approach to the design and implementation of nonlinear model predictive control controllers, it has made a comparison of yields algorithms quadratic programming by active set with linearization restrictions, and sequential quadratic programming with single shooting technique to solve quadratic optimization problem formulation referred to a dynamic internal combustion engine of spark ignition, in embedded systems with real-time processing. © 2016, Springer-Verlag France
