摘要:Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) interactive process is more complex than Single Input Single Output (SISO) systems. We consider two inputs and two outputs for four tank process, which is also called Quadruple Tank Process (QTP). It consists of two inputs as voltages fed to motor pumps and water levels in the lower tanks are the two outputs. The inputs are manipulated by setting of valves. It has four tank interactive loop operation consisting of two lower tanks and two upper tanks. The Model Predictive Control (MPC) technique is more suitable and gives optimized operational control in calculating present and future values of output. It tunes output and inputs simultaneously to provide more stable (optimized) output within the permissible limits of tolerance / error. MPC can stabilize all linear processes effectively and efficiently. It can also work with nonlinear processes under extreme conditions. It offers an optimized result under Predictive control �P� and Horizon control �M�, by tuning P and M and its application to QTP as a Nonlinear Model Predictive Control.
