Abstract
We present a data-driven nonlinear predictive control approach for the class of discrete-time multi-input multi-output feedback linearizable nonlinear systems. The scheme uses a non-parametric predictive model based only on input and noisy output data along with a set of basis functions that approximate the unknown nonlinearities. Despite the noisy output data as well as the mismatch caused by the use of basis functions, we show that the proposed multi-step robust data-driven nonlinear predictive control scheme is recursively feasible and renders the closed-loop system practically exponentially stable. We illustrate our results on a model of a fully-actuated double inverted pendulum.
