11385606 · 2022-07-12 · ·

The invention discloses a MIMO different-factor full-form model-free control method. In view of the limitations of the existing MIMO full-form model-free control method with the same-factor structure, namely, at time k, different control inputs in the control input vector can only use the same values of penalty factor and step-size factors, the invention proposes a MIMO full-form model-free control method with the different-factor structure, namely, at time k, different control inputs in the control input vector can use different values of penalty factors and/or step-size factors, which can solve control problems of strongly nonlinear MIMO systems with different characteristics between control channels widely existing in complex plants. Compared with the existing control method, the inventive method has higher control accuracy, stronger stability and wider applicability.
