y (k)= C x(k)+h(k)
P&C features
- State space modeling
- Kalman filter with explicit state estimation
- Process input and output disturbance estimates
- Uses auxiliary process variables as early warning of
disturbance occurrence
- Quadratic and linear objectives
- True prioritized constraints
- User-defined trajectories for setpoints, feed-forwards and
constraints
- Native representation of integral models (like level) makes
it easy to control levels
- Online update of models and tuning parameters based on
process conditions
- Powerful model identification methods
