Abstract

Model Predictive Control (MPC) has accomplished several important achievements after decades of growth. Through the perspective of model predictive control for time-delay systems, the system output may deteriorate when there is time-delay or even the system will be unstable. This paper presents the performance of model predictive control methods for time-delay systems with state delays and control delay. The characteristics of the methods used to deal with various types of time-delay systems are illustrated and the benefits, drawbacks and future directions for research are highlighted. Finally, an example is given to test that model predictive control is one of the most successful methods of tackling system control problems.
