Abstract
In this paper, partial output consensus (POC) based on distributed robust model predictive control (DRMPC) is investigated for multi-rate chain interconnected processes. To accommodate potential differences in sensor sampling characteristics, ‘Consensus’ and ‘Nonconsensus’ outputs (i.e. those outputs with and without a consensus target) have different sampling periods. A fusion estimation strategy (FES) is initially designed, which can utilize multi-rate measured outputs to generate state estimates in real time. Using the results of this FES, a DRMPC is then proposed that can simultaneously stabilize all the outputs. The POC cost function and consensus constraint can ensure that all subsystems meet POC requirements. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is guaranteed theoretically and further demonstrated by simulations and experimental testing.
