Model predictive control (MPC) has been
successfully applied to many transportation systems.
For the control of overhead cranes, existing MPC approaches
mainly focus on improving the regulation performance,
such as tracking error or steady-state error.
In this paper, energy efficiency as well as safety is newly
considered in our proposed MPC approach. Based on
the system model designed, the MPC approach is applied
to minimize an objective function that is formulated
as the integration of energy consumption and swing
angle. In our approach, promising results in terms of
low energy consumption and small swing angle can be
found, whilst the solutions obtained can satisfy all practical
constraints. Our test results indicate that the MPC
approach can ensure stability and robustness of improving
energy efficiency and safety. |
