文摘In this paper, a linear programming method is proposed to solve model predictive control for a class of hybrid systems. Firstly, using the （max, ＋） algebra, a typical subclass of hybrid systems called max-plus-linear （MPL） systems is obtained. And then, model predictive control （MPC） framework is extended to MPL systems. In general, the nonlinear optimization approach or extended linear complementarity problem （ELCP） were applied to solve the MPL-MPC optimization problem. A new optimization method based on canonical forms for max-min-plus-scaling （MMPS） functions （using the operations maximization, minimization, addition and scalar multiplication） with linear constraints on the inputs is presented. The proposed approach consists in solving several linear programming problems and is more efficient than nonlinear optimization. The validity of the algorithm is illustrated by an example.
