On the basis of the single-input single-output (SISO) RBF-ARX model proposed in previous works [Peng, H., et al. (2003b). Stability analysis of the RBF-ARX model based nonlinear predictive control.

Nonlinear predictive control using neural nets-based local linearization APX model-Stability and industrial application. IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 15, 130-143] the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) RBF-ARX model and its state-space representation are derived to describe the dynamics of a class of multivariable nonlinear systems whose working-point varies with time and which may be linearized around the working-point. The proposed MIMO RBF-ARX model has a basic regression-model Structure that is analogous to the linear ARX model structure, and the elements of its regression matrices are composed of Gaussian radial basis RBF) neural networks that are dependent on the working-point state of the current system. An off-line estimation approach to parameters and orders of the MIMO RBF-ARX model is presented, and, on the basis of the estimated MIMO RBF-ARX model, a predictive control strategy is designed to control the underlying nonlinear system. A case Study oil a simulator of a thermal power plant is also given to illustrate the effectiveness of the nonlinear modeling and control method proposed in this paper.
