Data-Enabled Predictive Control for Nonlinear Systems Based on a Koopman Bilinear Realization

Zuxun Xiong, Zhenyi Yuan, Keyan Miao +3

This paper extends the Willems' Fundamental Lemma to nonlinear control-affine systems using the Koopman bilinear realization. This enables us to bypass the Extended Dynamic Mode De…
