Abstract
A method for controlling an actuator system of a motor vehicle includes utilizing a model predictive control (MPC) module with an MPC solver to determine optimal positions of a plurality of actuators subject to constraints, optimizing a cost function for a set of actuator duty cycles for controlling positions of the plurality of actuators, determining if the MPC solver has determined optimal actuator positions for the plurality of actuators, and applying a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) solution if the MPC solver fails to determine optimal actuator positions for the plurality of actuators.
