Abstract

This paper describes a new method for improving the control of air temperature in greenhouses. The proposed controller is an extended version of the generalized predictive controller (GPC). The prediction of air temperature is facilitated by a continuous time stochastic state space model identified for the heat dynamics of the greenhouse. A simulation study illustrates that the proposed GPC gives a more active controller with less control error than the implemented PID controller.
