From PID to Model Predictive Control: A Review of Industrial Feedback Control Practice

PID controllers and model predictive control (MPC) are the two best-known feedback control approaches in industry. This review summarises a textbook on PID control, the classical Ziegler–Nichols tuning paper, a survey on the stability and optimality of constrained MPC and a survey of industrial MPC technology. It describes the features and trade-offs of each approach as presented in the sources. This is a narrative review; it contains no new data.
