Abstract :
In this paper, generalized predictive control (GPC) algorithm is implemented to control an Earth station antenna. Nonlinear term in motors caused by coulomb friction is modeled by a dead zone block. Simulation results show the effectiveness of GPC method for robust control in the presence of dead zone nonlinearity without a priori knowledge about upper and lower bounds of dead zone
