TL;DR: A novel method—generalized predictive control or GPC—is developed which is shown by simulation studies to be superior to accepted techniques such as generalized minimum-variance and pole-placement and to be a contender for general self-tuning applications.

TL;DR: The relationship between GPC and LQ designs is investigated to show the computational advantage of the new approach and the robustness of the GPC approach to model over- and under-parameterization and to fast sampling rates is demonstrated by a set of simulations.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new method called generalized predictive control (GPC) is proposed to control non-minimum phase oscillators, which is capable of good control of particularly difficult processes such as nonminimum-phase oscillators.
