Abstract :
The paper deals with trajectory tracking using a flatness based control integrating MPC technique for an electromagnetic actuator designed in automotive applications. The system modeling is described and its flatness is discussed. Local observability is analyzed and a velocity observer is designed. A MPC-feedback is used to optimize an energy function and to improve the dynamic performance. Computer simulations based on real data of the actuator design are reported.
