GPC Algorithm and Queuing-selecting for Networked Level Control

Networked level control is a very important part in many industries. In this paper, a new method called generalized predictive control (GPC) combined with a queuing-selecting strategy is applied for level control in networked control system (NCS). A distributed model which contains an event-driven controller, and a time-driven sensor and actuator is adopted in the system. The proposed method relieve the degradation of the network control system caused by the network-induced delay . The experiment is carried out on three-coupled-tank over real network to test the proposed method, which verifies the stability and robustness of the proposed method.
