The presence of time delays in the dynamics of industrial processes, leading to difficult problems in the associated closed-loop control systems, is a well-recognized phenomenon. The performance achievable can be significantly degraded if an industrial process has a relatively large time delay compared with the dominant time constant. Under these circumstances, advanced predictive control is necessary to improve the performance of the control system.Three main schemes for advanced predictive control are addressed in this book: Smith predictive control; generalised predictive control; a form of predictive control based on finite spectrum assignment.§A substantial part of the book addresses application issues in predictive control so while the book is written to serve as an advanced reference on predictive control for researchers, postgraduates and senior undergraduates, it should be equally useful to industrial practitioners keen to explore the use of advanced predictive control in real problems.
