Receding horizon control for nonlinear time-varying systems

The receding horizon control strategy provides a relatively simple method for determining feedback control for nonlinear systems and has been shown to be globally asymptotically stabilizing when applied to general, time-invariant nonlinear systems. The authors extend previous results by showing that the receding horizon control is globally stabilizing for a large class of time-varying, continuous-time nonlinear systems.<<ETX>>
