Abstract
This paper revisits the routing problem in baggage handling systems.
We propose a two-level control approach based on a model predictive
controller at the top level and a constrained feedback controller at
the bottom level that minimizes the L2 gain of the
closed-loop system. The model predictive control problem is recast as
a linear programming problem and the constrained feedback controller
design problem is formulated as minimization of a linear objective
function subject to linear matrix inequalities. The effectiveness of
the proposed method is illustrated by a case study.
