Can I use quadprog solver in an Explicit MPC?

Hi,

I have a question regarding to using quadprog solver. Can I use quadprog solver to obtain all the regions for a Explicit MPC?

I have this in my code (thinking that maybe I can use quadprog solver)

% Generate explicit MPC controller

mpcobj.Optimizer.Solver = 'interior-point';

setCustomSolver(mpcobj,'quadprog');

My other question is can I change the cost function that the Explicit MPC will minimize when it will obtain the controller? How?

Thanks in advance

Dave

Hello Dave,

I can infer from the question that you want to use the 'quadprog' solver in explicit MPC. Yes, you can use it in an explicit MPC by using it as a custom solver.

For more information, please refer to the documentation here: https://in.mathworks.com/help/mpc/ref/mpc.setcustomsolver.html#:~:text=Configure%20mpcobj%20to%20Use%20quadprog%20as%20Custom%20Solver

For more information related to the minimization of quadprog solver, you can have a look in the documentation link here: https://in.mathworks.com/help/optim/ug/quadprog.html#:~:text=Linear%20Constraints%20and-,Bounds,-Try%20This%20Example

I hope this helps!
