Model Predictive Control for Electron Beam Stabilization in a Synchrotron
Idris Kempf, Paul J. Goulart, Stephen R. Duncan
Electron beam stabilization in a synchrotron is a disturbance rejection problem, with hundreds of inputs and outputs, that is sampled at frequencies higher than kHz. In this f…
Multi-Array Electron Beam Stabilization using Block-Circulant Transformation and Generalized Singular Value Decomposition
Idris Kempf, Stephen R. Duncan, Paul J. Goulart +1
We introduce a novel structured controller design for the electron beam stabilization problem of the UK's national synchrotron light source. Because changes to the synchrotron will…
Symmetry Exploitation in Orbit Feedback Systems of Synchrotron Storage Rings
Idris Kempf, Paul J. Goulart, Stephen R. Duncan +1
Structural symmetries in the storage ring of synchrotrons are intentionally created during the design phase of the magnetic lattices, but they are not considered in the design of c…
Fast Gradient Method for Model Predictive Control with Input Rate and Amplitude Constraints
Idris Kempf, Paul Goulart, Stephen Duncan
This paper is concerned with the computing efficiency of model predictive control (MPC) problems for dynamical systems with both rate and amplitude constraints on the inputs. Inste…
