US 2019/0155229 A1 · APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A PROCESS

Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method of controlling a vehicle, comprising predicting a first parameter of a vehicle state at each of a plurality of points in time in dependence on a first parameter of a current vehicle state and a first model associated with the vehicle, predicting a second parameter of the vehicle state at each of the plurality of points in time in dependence on a second parameter of the current vehicle state, the predicted first parameter of the vehicle state and a second model associated with the vehicle, and determining one or more control inputs for the vehicle at each of the points in time in dependence on the predicted first and second parameters of the vehicle state at each of the plurality of points in time and desired first and second parameters of the vehicle state at each of the plurality of points in time.
