Adaptive robust predictive control with sample-based persistent excitation

We propose a robust adaptive Model Predictive Control strategy with online set-based estimation for constrained linear systems with unknown parameters and bounded disturbances. A sample-based test applied to predicted trajectories is used to ensure convergence of parameter estimates by enforcing a persistence of excitation condition on the closed loop system. The control law robustly satisfies constraints and has guarantees of feasibility and input-to-state stability. Convergence of parameter set estimates to the actual system parameter vector is guaranteed under conditions on reachability and tightness of disturbance bounds. Copyright (c) 2023 The Authors.
