Abstract :
Simple MPC algorithms produce a feed forward compensator that may be a suboptimal choice. This paper gives some insights into this issue and simple means of modifying the feed forward to produce a more systematic and optimal design. In particular it is shown that the optimum procedure depends upon the underlying loop tuning and also that there are, as yet under utilised, potential benefits with regard to constraint handling procedures.
