Abstract

In this paper we develop a hybrid supervisory control architecture in a real-time environment for constrained nonlinear systems. The strategy is based on Command Governor (CG) ideas that are here specialized in order to take into account both time-varying set-points and constraints. Experimental results on a laboratory four-tank test-bed are presented.
