Application of Adaptive Predictive Control to a Newborn Incubator
- 1 National School of Engineering of Tunis, Tunisia
Abstract
Problem statement: This study presents an application of Indirect Adaptive Generalized Predictive Control (IAGPC) of an incubator for newborn, in order to improve the performance of temperature control. Approach: Analysis of physical phenomena of incubator was involved together knowledge of the dynamic behavior. Incubator was identified by means of Recursive Least Square (RLS) technique associated with a projection of the model parameters for robust system identification. Results: Results showed that mathematical model of neonatal incubator predicted coincide with the measured data. A comparative study was made between ON-OFF, PID and IAGPC control in order to provide the performance of each strategy. Conclusion: Results had proved effectiveness of the IAGPC as a control of incubator system.
