Some mathematical models are developed from experimental data to describe the system behavior. The simplest, yet reliable, model obtained is a (1,1,1)-order ARX polynomial model for which the mentioned EMPC controller has been designed. The resultant controller has a reduced mathematical complexity and, according to the successful results obtained in simulations, will be used directly on the real control system in a next stage of the entire experimental framework.engInstitute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.info:eu-repo/semantics/conferencePaperAutomationModel predictive controlProcess controlBatch reactionsExplicit model predictive controlMathematical complexityPilot scalePolynomial modelingReal control systemsSystem behaviorsTemperature regulationsControllers2021-04-12Sanchez-Cossio, J.Ortega-Alvarez, J.D.Ocampo-Martinez, C.10.1109/CCAC.2015.7345216
