Abstract
An optimal feedforward control design for controlling equipment performs intermittent re-initialization based on estimated state information. A model-based constrained optimization is explicitly performed during the feedforward calculation. During the course of operation of the equipment, state estimation is continuously performed. When a load target change is detected, the estimated state may serve as the new signal baseline.
